Beautiful day and brilliant ride! Thanks for putting it together MBox! Too bad Charlie didn't make it- he missed out on a great trip!

I rode about 1100km today! Should have been less but I got incredibly lost coming into Bangkok...

Here's the route we did- (mbox will have to double check for accuracy as I'm not 100% sure...)

A few pictures-

I'm beat! I'll try and get some videos posted up tomorrow.

Happy Trails,

Looks like fun. Some day I am going to have to just rent a bike (or buy a new one again!) and drive up there and join you all for you of these SSR rides. Plus I am dying to see the Secret Soi!!

Hey there xobm!

Good to hear from you! My butt's fine, thanks

Crap Thai internet (TOT) is pissing me off though- says it'll take about ~3 hours to upload a 400Mb video to YouTube and I'm on my 3rd attempt now as it keeps failing mid-upload...

Some pretty good footage though- hope you'll like it if/when I'm able to get it uploaded.

Happy Trails!

Well, couldn't get the high res video to upload so we'll have to settle for low res

Have some good vids of mbox on his Tiger Boxer 250RS and will try to get them posted up asap.

Ride On!

Another vid- this time mbox and his Tiger Boxer 250RS get more screen time

(Please forgive the horrendous soundtrack- hard to find tunes YouTube won't censor...)

November 23, 200916 yr

Nice vid.

Now I know what it like to ride at 100km/h!

Seafood buffet

Seafood buffet

georgegeorgia · Wednesday at 02:43 AM2 days

I would like to try a beautiful delicious seafood buffet I don't know where to go in Pattaya for this ,hence I'm seeking analysis on this project I'm not particularly concerned about price , but as I don't like crowds or people sitting near me , I don't like too many people where it's obnoxiously overcrowded where people are pushing shoving fighting for the food I find people seem attracted to me like honey to a pot , I could be in a restaurant say Sizzlers and there is hundreds of tables

Congress Randy Fine considers himself to be an Islamophobe and thinks it is "rational" be be afraid of the followers of Islam. Do you consider this "hate speech" and should it be banned in the United States? Support your opinion in the comments.

‘Killed by their own sons’: UK faces alarming rise in matricide

MPs fall silent as Jess Phillips lists the names of women killed by men in the last 12 months Nearly one in five women killed by men in the UK over the past year are suspected to have been murdered by their own sons, according to new data presented in Parliament. The stark figures emerged as Labour MP Jess Phillips read out the names of 108 women killed in the past 12 months during the annual International Women’s Day debate in the UK Parliament. Among them were 19 mothers whose sons are suspec

The International Left's Dangerous Appeasement of Iran, A Wake Up Call for Global Security! In an era where state sponsors of terrorism like Iran continue to escalate their nuclear threats, it's alarming to see elements of the international left, including disillusioned citizens of Western countries, turning a blind eye or even justifying such actions as responses to USA/Israel aggression, especially after repeated attempts at negotiations . This pattern of appeasement not only undermines glob

Intel report warns large-scale war ‘unlikely’ to oust Iran’s regime

Alan Zweibel · 21 hours ago21 hr

A classified U.S. report doubts that Iran’s opposition would take power following either a short or extended U.S. military campaign. A classified report by the National Intelligence Council found that even a large-scale assault on Iran launched by the United States would be unlikely to oust the Islamic republic’s entrenched military and clerical establishment, a sobering assessment as the Trump administration raises the specter of an extended military campaign that officials say has “only just b

Antisemitism…is all of us

unblocktheplanet · 6 hours ago6 hr

For me, the conversations we’ve been having here on racism and, more particularly, antisemitism have been very instructive. I’ve learned a lot by talking with all of you. Most of us are familiar with the story of the good German, the ordinary person who followed orders, no matter how far against morality or humanity they went. Eichmann’s defence at Nuremburg was, “I was only following orders.” They hanged him anyway. You see, that’s not good enough. We all like to think of ourselves as better

Plan B Retirement to ShanXi China: YOLO…!!!

GammaGlobulin · 22 hours ago22 hr

Dear Folks, You only live once, or so it is surmised by those who are no-longer among us.. And, I am thinking about going for the gusto in Shanxi, China. I have decided that ShanXi will be my new Plan B, if I need an escape destination. This is one place I have longed to visit, since I was 18. And so, I would like to know if anyone here has any experience living in Shanxi. I am an Old Friend of China, as I think I have mentioned in past comments. Therefore, I expect that a long-term visa mi

After Aggressive Pruning: Can/will this tree even survive?

After Aggressive Pruning: Can/will this tree even survive?

GammaGlobulin · yesterday at 10:21 AM1 day

Dear Folks, As we all know, most trees in the city, or the suburbs, get pruned. Most seem to survive this cutting. However, some never recover. At this time, I am worried about my favorite tree which has been growing near my property for some time, and which has provided me with welcome shade from the sun, during the Hot Seasons. I have no idea concerning the botanical name for this species of tree. I just know that it once was beautiful. My hope is that it will re-grow into its former se
