With that high concentration of pot holes (or should i say "craters" ?) and buried dead buffaloes under the asphalt (given the size of them), it's surprising that not many more vehicles are sent up in the sky, drive carefully people, the road around these shores many times become what a driver would never expect to find, even on roads i follow on an almost daily basis there are incredible changes on the surface from one day to another, one day i have been sent up to the sky for a few seconds too but i managed to keep my Yamaha straight and landed unaffected, apparently it was a piece of wood big lorry drivers put on front of their wheels( but i am not sure why? would that deter a theft? they are not parking on top of a hill so don't think the lorry it's going to suddenly roll to one side or the other) where they are parking their vehicles, that day it was all empty and i couldn't see immediately the object as it was dark (all public street lights obviously are not there to be switched on ever, just a decoration) amazing Thailand.
