Dragons Mc Thailand Charity Biker Weekend 21st/22nd November

For the Children of Moo Ban Dek "Foundation for Children" Orphanage

One thing what unites all motorcyclists is the need to be free, but from experience we know freedom never comes without a price. Freedom comes with many faces, some call it democracy but the real experts will call it relief from poverty.

For some people Thailand will not look that poor and some will even call it well on its way to profit and riches. But as in all emerging countries in the world, Thailand isn't immune to the differences between the rich and the poor, sometime very poor family's living from one moment to the next have accidents and suffer misfortune resulting in either one or both parents dying.

It's the children who have the misfortune of losing their parents, or come from ultra low income one parent families. They are the ones that so often pay the ultimate price. Starvation, poor living conditions, abuse of all kinds, that's what they have to contend with unless they have some where to go.

This is were an organization like the Moo Ban Dek "Foundation for Children" orphanage can make a huge difference, they provide a loving, caring environment, were the children are safe and can study for their future.

Moo Ban Dek "Foundation for Children" orphanage, relies on donations and receives NO money from the Thai Government.

For these reasons, and because as foreigner's here in the Land of Smiles, we decided we wanted to give something back to Thailand for the warm welcome we received and the continuing warm, smiling nature of the local people.

The Dragons MC Thailand has organized a charity biker's weekend for the weekend of November 21st/22nd 2009 in Kanchanaburi there will be a prize draw, live music, Thai and Foreign food, Beer and drinks, in fact every thing to make this a very enjoyable event for all that attend.

We have many sponsors from large business to normal everyday people like you and me.

The Dragons MC Thailand and the Moo Ban Dek "Foundation for Children" orphanage are very grateful to ALL our sponsors large and small.

This is in co-operation with the Thai Visa Forum and The Nation Newspaper.

We invite all motorcycle riders small and large. If you have a motorbike, big bike, scooter whatever, we hope to see you. In fact even if you haven't got a bike we would like your support, maybe you would like to donate money to this great charity event.

Thai's and Foreigner's alike are working together for the benefit of the children of the Moo Ban Dek orphanage.

The Dragons Mc Thailand are working and riding for the benefit of Thailand and the Thai people.

Feel free to give any insight into this event, good or bad.

Because quite frankly the level of apathy from this forum is astounding .

Come on guys. WE are giving something back And having FUN doing it .

Some feed back from you, to let us know you are all still alive and its not just your computers that have taken over.

Would be great

Lets see some POLL results

[thaicbr]

87 views and 6 polls and no feedback.....ummm.

This is the Thai Visa / Dragons Mc Thailand charity weekend we are talking about.

But STILL no response from you guys. no feedback. NO ticket sales. Well done one and ALL.

Rant over :D

Seriously we. As in The Thai Visa/ Dragons Mc organizing team really could do with our fine upstanding members here on TV helping us to get this event on the map.

Thanks don't forget its going to be a great PARTY

[BigBikeBKK]

Dear Allan,

Please don't let the perceived apathy on this board discourage you. Seems to me the number of posts and traffic on the motorcycle forum has dropped off quite a bit lately, I have my theories as to why but am not allowed to voice them here

I still think this will be a great event and I expect a lot of people to show up who have nothing to do with ThaiVisa. After all, you don't have to participate on this forum to support a good cause.

Happy Trails!

Tony

That'll teach the tumbleweed!

Sorry big guy, no can do on that one.

I've yet to go see Kanchan. but I'm away over touring down south and scooby doo diving with a mate then.

I'll see about putting a link on OTRT for your big day with the Dragons. I think I've got the event listed already but without details.

I'll copy your OP, that way anyone seeing it can contact / liase with you if interested. With any luck it might drum up some traffic for ticket sales etc.

Hope you have a good one mate.

It is likely I will drop by, I'm that evening in the neighbourhood.

Anyway, I love your promotional introduction text, it is really get to the point of why we need to have charity events. I also love the idea that most motorcycle forums and media's are spreading the word...

The benefit biker event gets now the international search attention it needs, a search at Google for "Biker weekend Thailand" gets results...

Allan, did you create a motorcycle gang? Like to rival the Hells Angels? Cool.

I would go but I'm in the States right now. Mebbe will hit you guys up when I get back to where I wish I was. Is there an initiation? Like do I gotta whack someone before I can get my patch?

[thaicbr]

Sub. Na. I haven't set up a motorcycle gang.

I am helping a friend with this Great charity event and party .

He did set up a good motorcycle club called the Dragons Mc Thailand and they are organizing the Dragons Mc/Thaivisa charity bike weekend.

All you have to do Sub is follow the link to the website and make a donation to help the kids at Moo ban dek

See no excuses for being in the States right now

Not sure where you guys will be starting from. Anyone who wants to stay the night before can do so at the nearby 13 coins hotel at half the internet farang price. My wife called and was quoted 700 Baht with breakfast. It's $ 44 on the web. http://allresortthailand.com/nonthaburi/13...anon/index.html

We got a great restaurant with meals starting at 30 Baht.

Then there is the Sizzler nearby, at Future Park Rangsit.

Fancy a massage and a swim after a long day in the saddle?

150 / 180 Baht for an hour plus 100 for gym & pool.

Good stuff for taking the time to search for a hotel... I will have to update my site regarding accommodations as the property is fully booked now.. Following up on some other smaller places to stay nearby as well.. If anyone has suggestions on locations please PM me.. Don't forget to check the TV hotels / resorts accommodations for possible bookings as well...

PS: Sometimes the properties in question don't revise their web rates or extranet rates (3rd party websites..) common mistake...

[JUDAS]

Can't make those dates thaicbr but have pm'd you.

[fatbastard68]

Hey guys,

Chris asked if I could pass this update to everyone (his computer is having some problems at the moment).

The meeting point has been changed for the ride to Kanchanaburi, it is no longer at Future Park Rangsit. It is now down the road at the first major P.T.T. gas/petrol station on the left, heading in the direction of Kanchanaburi on Route 324.

The departure time is the same 10:45 am

Dunder will show up.. This will be a great event - I know it already

[BKOKVLX]

Please check this site and let me know if this is where we will be meeting for the group ride. I realize that the site has moved a little from Starbucks to a close by gas station. If the link is correct for Starbucks then I can find the way to the gas station. I hate to miss the ride because I am lost
