Cough cough, from the dust.... about 10 Safari trucks on the back roads of Samui, the other day!

I waved one down to see how many more to come, not much room to pull over on a motor bike!

^^^ Nice pix SJ.

Question for you though...the 4x4's look like "good trucks". Why are they

on a road and not off the road? Does Samui have any real off road places

left? 20 + years ago there was some good tracks but today???

Just asking...thanks in advance.

There are miles of back roads on Samui, still, one can get to every corner on the island on back roads~ !!!

Not for the faint of heart, some areas are what one would describe as "white knuckle" drives!

Many farms and "small holdings" up in the centre of the island have to use them every day.... still no electric up there, but it is being worked on!

Nice views up there too... this is Lamai from above!

It can be 10 degrees cooler up in there hills!

DAL has done "Jim's Back road tours" a couple of times now...on motorbike! ....so have many others!

Safari Trucks are a better option for some! There are dozens of them around the island!

This is one of the eight visitors from the great white north, I have had this year, so far....(two more to come!)

Even him first time driving a bike managed "Jungle Route 360 back roads this week..on a Scoppy bike........ his wife chickened out!

SJ...Thanks for the info...was just wondering since the road the safari trucks

are on looks like the road to our house from the coast road...a car can easily

do it! Except the road to our house is flat....Kinda also reminded me of Urban

Cowboys back in LA in the late 70's who had great looking 4x4 pickups that

never saw one meter of "real" off road usage!
