Thanks

Is there a giant lot where it will be held on Chaiyapruk 1, or will it be on the other side of Suk on Chaiyapruk 2?

[pluto_manibo]

The other side of Sukhumvit(eastern side) on Chayapreuk 2, same as the last few years.

[Kerryd]

If you go here: Burapa-MC

and click on "Map" it will show you a Google map with the location of the Bike Week site at Soi Chaiyaphruek 2.

(note: Doesn't look like the site has been updated since it was put up a couple weeks ago. Still shows a party being held at Easy Riders on Sunday.)

A bit about Rio Et.

The forest park is a great ride. My two cents worth this is a little town with a heart of gold. Issan at it’s best

Roi Et

Once a prosperous and extensive community but ravaged by floods, Roi Et has made a come-back as a town of great promise, with its huge Thung Kula Rong Hai (flat-land) being developed into a fertile and productive land. Roi Et is 512 kilometers from Bangkok.

Have your questions about this province answered quickly in our All About Thailand Forums. Post questions about your next holiday as well as culture and language of Thailand.

Book your hotel in Roi-Et before you leave home and save money!

Pha Nam Yoi Forest Park

is located in the northeast of Amphoe Nong Phok, 65 kilometers from Roi Et. Pha Nam Yoi is a large stone cliff having running water and small springs coming out from the cliff all year round. On the hill is a monastery with a large multipurpose and big pagoda of 101 meters in height.

Ku Ka Sing

a large Khmer architecture dating between 1017 -1087 A.D., is located in Amphoe Kaset Wisai. Travel 60 kilometers along Roi Et-Surin Road until arriving Ku Phra Kona and turn right into the road leading to Ku Ka Sing,18 kilometers away. The remains consist of 3 prangs located on the same sand stone basement and rectangular buildings called Bannalai situated at two sides in front. All buildings are surrounded by the wall.

Thung Kula Rong Hai

is a huge flat-land covering four provinces, Surin, Roi Et, Maha - Saraham and Buriram, with an area of about one million acres. The name literally means the Weeping Field of the Kula (a tough nomad people). For it was scorching dry in the summer and totally inundated during the rainy season, with no natural water sources or tall trees to provide shade. However, it has been partially developed developed for agricultural purpose through a land reform project to turn it into a vast productive farming area.

Roi Et Reservoir

about three kilometers from the town center, is another area popular with the people. For it provides both beautiful scenery and restful atmosphere for relaxation.

Cheddi Chai Muang Kai:

I really can’t do justice to this we have 100’s of photos from our first visit it’s work in progress, supported by the local entrance fee when were there was 0 free. I didn’t understand the difference between a Cheddie and a Wat, based on what I saw here this is a fortress designed to protect the province high on a hill with a view of the entire valley. Double defensive wall surrounding it.

The Entrance

Guys you may have noticed I put a little more effort into this one, There is a reason for that, far as I know their is their first one. Also this is one where our participation can make a difference in some kids lives and have fun doing t. If you can work this one in please do
