Teams of 4 but just come along and partner up, no-one will be left out! Head towards Rawai Beach from Chalong Enigma is about 200 metres before the road does a 90 degree right onto the beach road itself.

June 23, 201115 yr Saturday July 2nd will be an American Independence Celebration at Headstart School in Kathu, across from Makro from 10AM-7PM. Yes, yes, the actual day is The Fourth Of July, but a little inconvenient for the school as that is a Monday. Entrance is free, there will be American beers (not the watery stuff) like Sam Adams and Anchor Steam for the adults, a band, tons of stuff for kids, games, rides, contests with little prizes, typically terrible American food like hotdogs and hamburgers (joking........actually not really), but anyway it will be a family fun day so bring a picnic lunch and help us celebrate when we told King George to hit road. Thank you to The Navy League of Phuket for putting this on. Hope to see you all there, I'll be hard to miss, look for the grumpyoldman.

December 12, 201114 yr The fourth round of the FIM Asia Enduro is being held in Phuket at Kamala Beach on the 17th & 18th of this month. Should be a blast for off road bike fans.
December 13, 201114 yr The fourth round of the FIM Asia Enduro is being held in Phuket at Kamala Beach on the 17th & 18th of this month. Should be a blast for off road bike fans. Sounds like fun. Any idea where in Kamala? Any entrance fees?
December 13, 201114 yr The fourth round of the FIM Asia Enduro is being held in Phuket at Kamala Beach on the 17th & 18th of this month. Should be a blast for off road bike fans. Sounds like fun. Any idea where in Kamala? Any entrance fees? No idea mate, all the the big billboards around the island are completely in Thai. I'm guessing if you roll in to Kamala it shouldn't be too hard to see what's going on and I can't see it being that expensive if there's a charge at all. The course is 5-7 km's long. How much of that will be miles deep in the jungle I don't know, or where the best vantage point will be. I think I'm going to miss and I'm gutted. Should be a lot of fun.
