Richard-BKK Posted August 23, 2010 Author Share Posted August 23, 2010 Here another picture of the two English females, while they where unpacking two warehouse girl where all to willing to try the motorcycle out and fill them up with petrol. I have no idea about the destination, touring route, or websites. I just share the pictures because the two where really not the average motorcycle touring types.

I think its good that a larger percentage of people are getting involved in Motorcycling. Looking at the picture it seems they have come well prepared with all the kit. knee guards, decent jackets etc. I think these ladies have probably done this before in Europe. It would be nice to know where they are planning to go. Tony. Maybe you can plan a trip to secret soi for them. They may like it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHdiver Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 Good Luck to the 2 Ladys, sure they will enjoy there adventure. Those little Varaderos are good Motorcycles to tour around. Pitty Honda is not bringing them on the Thai Market. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moe666 Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 Good luck to them, saw a few girls around Mae Hong Son in Mar. but they were riding local rentals. A German Lady rode a bicycle from Mae Hong Son to Pie, over 600 curves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BSJ Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 I don't normally go out of my way to associate with grannies. But I do chat with all and any bikers. I wave to approaching bikes on the highway. He11, I've even got waves back from Harley riders......occasionally! So, if I come across grannies on bikes I'll say G'day, how you going. Car drivin' grannies.....probably not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ttakata Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 Awesome! Good for them for having some cajones. Like said before, they probably know what they're doing and being 125s they won't be going too fast. A novice would just show up and rent bikes but to think of dealing with all the BS of shipping bikes here, I'm sure they're experienced tourers. This must be on their "Bucket List" No matter what culture, you'd have to be one seriously drugged out jerk to give two old ladies a hard time. I'm sure people won't pose a problem.

spud1 Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 I,ve a feeling their a pair of eccentric spinsters out on their jollies.Not sure Thailand is the best place to have them with the driving system and the weather, ie very hot or pissing down.But I wish them luck,their probably going to need it.

hanno Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 This ladies are doing what most TV posters (me included) are way to chicken-sh*t to do; thus all the negative remarks. Why should they be less save than a drug-addled back-packer at the Full Moon Party? I say go for it ladies!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sbk Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 Um, no, I don't think so. While most comments are fine, a few are just plain nasty and if they were aimed at a member of the forum would most definitely earn a warning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe because they would just drive to Pattaya and get stuck there. Then would try to sell there Motorcycles after 2 weeks.
