moe666 Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 In Tak you could take the 1 to Theon and then the 106 into Chiang mai. Of course mute if you want the extra miles along the border. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeh, thought going along the border on 105 would be a fun way. Might do the Mae Hong Son loop while up there as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffreyMcCollum Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 Fuel up in Mae Sot. Fuel is very limited along 105 Nice ride, hardly any traffic, some times hours pass with nothing on the road but you. Stay in Mae Sot, Tak or somewhere there for the night before along the boarder, Best to head out earlier in the day to do that, Road is very good to fair condition in areas. A few steep climbs and areas of very narrow road in places just a few feet wide, OK on a bike though and a nice road to see for your self Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inthake8 Posted April 21, 2012 Author Share Posted April 21, 2012 Thanks for the advice on the fuel stop. Any tips on where to stay in Mae Sot ? This is my first time to Chiang Mai area Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffreyMcCollum Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Go straight into Tak just a few km past the mae sot turn off. Lots of hotels there. many under 500 Bt and many food choices. Start off fresh the next day for the twisties. When you head into Tak, at the "T" just bearly over the river there is a hotel I have stayed that is OK. But in town and around are many decent choices Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moe666 Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 (edited) I stayed in te Riverside Hotel in Tak a couple of weeks ago they have rooms for 800 a night, nice place, free breakfast The loop would be easy to continue on just follow the 108 north and then on to the 1095 in Mae Hong Song.
