Roachiebkk Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 I remember years ago there was an incredible free bike market held every Saturday night along the canal near the UN Building in Rachadamnoen. This was a fantastic collection of spare parts, bikes for sale, bike paraphernalia as well as an eclectic collection of people from all walks of life. Years ago (post 9/11) apparently for security bullsh*t reasons they moved the market down to Makro in Samsen Road. It didn't do well there and I heard it was moved once again to somewhere in Rachada. I think it may have died a slow death but it really was something special. Do any members remember this market? Did any members ever visit it after it moved to Makro or Rachada? does it still exist?

Living in sleepy Nonthaburi leaves a bit to be desired for such things Thanks You could also check out Punsap Market in Puthumthani. It's just north of Nonthaburi. It's open every day and they have got loads of motorcycle parts and accessories. Edited August 31, 2011 by SumetCycle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
