Hi RedFred!

Welcome to ThaiVisa and thanks for the great advice and excellent pictures!

That R6 looks NICE! :D

What kind of pipe is that? Looks LOUD! :o

Too bad we'll miss you at the Udon Thani Bike Week, but hopefully we'll catch you at a later one.

Happy Trails!

Everyone going to Udon, best of luck and be safe.

I went up there new years eve, left at 2 in the afternoon and got there 8.30 and that was with horrendous traffic jams,I reckon you should get there just under 5 hours .....If you are going to go all that way might I suggest that you go the extra 50 klicks and go to Nongkhai to see the MekongPicture048.jpg

I really thought the food was great in the Irish clock and I know some of you guys are staying there but what have you worked out about parking/security for your bikes?

You have got to check out this place Harley O' Tooles, its within stumbling distance of the clock. Cool new owner named Eddie , I went to Udon to see this place I heard it was owned by a fellow Irishman and Harley rider,but he'd already sold it to an American (Eddie)the current owner, good guy I was up til 8am on new years day!Picture035.jpgPicture036.jpg

Alright have a great trip, F.B.

p.s. If you have any bike parking issues speak to Eddie he can help I'm sure.

Hi All!

Heard from the first group of bikers who left from Bangkok this morning and they've made it to Udon safe and sound and say there are already a ton of bikes.

Italithai and I will be riding to Udon tomorrow am. If you'd like to join us here's the meet point:

There's a PTT just before the McDonalds, so you can gas up and grab a McBreakfast and be ready to roll at 0700!

Happy Trails!

Awesome to finally meet you Zzzinged and hope next time we'll get to ride together- you missed an AWESOME ride along the Mekong yesterday. In your list above you forgot to count the number of girls that were irresistibly drawn to your big, sexy XJR1300 :D

The Udon Thani Bike Week was a blast!

So good to see many friends from ThaiVisa and Golden Triangle Riders and meet some new friends too!

Left Bangers at the crack of dawn with Ithailian-

Beautiful day- we rode north to Prachin Buri on 319, then East on 33 to the 304 which we rode up through the mountains to connect with Highway 2. Blasted through all speed traps unmolested and made very good time.

The Irish Clock was excellent and I recommend it to anyone looking for HUGE rooms, great location and excellent food:

Hi Ray,

My missus took the videos while we were riding. Not a perfect setup but still enjoyable.

The road along the Mekong, #211 was in mostly excellent condition- and what stunning views!

Wow thank you so much for the video! Please pass on my thanks to Nong.

That was some ride for sure! And the triumph went like a dream.

It had been a real joy riding with you guys.

Once again thank you very much for the video.

The trick to the Loie Loop, to get that last punch from it is to cut over to Nam Som using the un numbered roads over the mountain two routes, they both equal Mae Hong Son, but only ten klms.

Go to Tha Bo from there, skip Pheu Rua roads are terrible. You can get back on the river to Nong Khai from there.

I like the videos when grow up I think I will try it.
