BigBikeBKK Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 Rode over to the Red Bull Enduro park to check out the races there today and in typical friendly Thai naam jai style they threw me the keys to a KLX250 and let me ride a lap on the 2.8 km course. What fun! I REALLY gotta get a dirtbike! Let the Good Times Roll! Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so i'll pack my camera and head out there with you, i couldn't come today due to a Saturday class i hold at home. Sorry for late reply! Passed out from the heat yesterday afternoon and was taken to the hospital where my body temp was pushing 40 degrees and they told me I was suffering from borderline heat stroke! (Technically your body temp has to exceed 40 degrees for it to be heat stroke, but I had all the other symptoms including heat rash, muscle cramps, nausea, dizziness, rapid pulse, etc.) Did you know that untreated heat stroke can kill you!?! dam_n it was HOT yesterday! There were a few other guys who quit, but I was the only one who had to go to the hospital Ice bath and IV weren't much fun, but at least the nurses were cute I think I'm going to have to avoid mid-day dirt biking during the hot season. Mornings and late afternoon are generally a lot cooler. Getting old sucks! Edited April 22, 2012 by BigBikeBKK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBikeBKK Posted April 22, 2012 Author Share Posted April 22, 2012 When you say clinic, is it just a chance to go play on your own bike before the racing? It's a proper clinic with instructors from Siam Enduro Club. They had 5 "stations" set up, each for a different skill. Station 1 was jumping over obstacles, like trees, rocks, etc. Station 2 was descending and climbing steep hills. Station 3 was "riding through a big hole" and then over a wooden bridge on a pivot. Station 4 was jumps Station 5 was cornering on berms, ruts and off camber turns. Alas I only made it through the second station before I passed out from the heat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like loads of fun. I have no experience of off road since I was a kid on a CR80, so getting some lessons would be ideal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whenever i decide to offload one of the Blades i'm think i might have to pickup something i can easily switch from supermoto to offroad and join u guys sometime.

Is there any chance for tours in the wilderness near to BKK? (funny where I ended up doing my first post on this forum - when I was actually searching for schools and job) Siam Enduro Club is a cool club. Made up mostly of present and former mx racers and enthusiasts they are always active. Check out their forum for upcoming trips and events. (not allowed to post link on this forum, but just do a search for siamenduroclub and you should have no trouble finding them). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
