cbrer Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 (edited) Probably 5-6 hours. Though not exactly an enjoyable road trip in any way. Edited January 1, 2013 by cbrer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonnyF Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 I live in Bangkok, and Hua Hin and Pattaya are 2 of my least favourite routes from there by bike. Doing both on the same day on a scooter would be grim, maybe 2 hours up to bkk, an hour messing around with traffic and then two and a half hours to Hua Hin. Almost no decent roads the whole way. Much better to head the other way from Pattaya - towards Ban Chang, Rayong, or all the way to Koh Chang if you feel like a longer ride. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbrer Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 If looking for a few days of riding. Day 1 - Up to Kanchanaburi. Day 2 - Up to the 3 Pagoda Pass, taking in Muang Sing temple and Hin Dat hotsprings. Sleep Thong Pha Phum. Day 3 - To Pilok and then back to Kan. Day 4 - Kan to Pattaya. https://maps.google.com/maps?saddr=Route+7&daddr=13.6375121,100.5598971+to:Route+323%2FAH123+to:Unknown+road&hl=en&sll=14.17386,99.497681&sspn=2.859716,5.410767&geocode=FT2AxQAd3N8DBg%3BFYgX0AAdGWz-BSmnybOtCKHiMDGQWZELN5IBEw%3BFXJ_6QAdD03dBQ%3BFUkG4AAdWPDcBQ&mra=dpe&mrsp=1&sz=8&via=1&t=m&z=8 Perhaps a ride to Erawan or the entire Si Sawat loop aswell/instead.

Phatcharanan Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 I agree about the BKK-Hua Hin route. Done it on my PCX twice previously....................bloody awful roads and nothing nice to look at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bramds Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 I agree about the BKK-Hua Hin route. Done it on my PCX twice previously....................bloody awful roads and nothing nice to look at. Which road do you take? Do you go through Nakon Pathom and Ratchaburi or do you go down through Samut Songkram and Samut Sakhon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sydneycraig Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 Plenty of interesting side roads if you explore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbrer Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 Plenty of interesting side roads if you explore I think the ride from Pattaya-Hua Hin is long enough without exploring side roads off the Bang Na-Trat Highway of Helll. In fact, beside possibly the Mittraphap highway to Khorat at New Year's I can't imagine a worse route in Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Via Chachoengsao-Minburi-Pak Kret- Bang Bua Thong-Bang Len is pretty stress free. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BirdsandBooze Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 I live on the NW edge of Nonthaburi province so go to Hua Hin via Bang Len-Nakhon Pathom-Ratchaburi-Petchaburi, not too bad a ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prepress Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 I agree about the BKK-Hua Hin route. Done it on my PCX twice previously....................bloody awful roads and nothing nice to look at. I do not agree. After you are outside Bangkok there is an excellent road No. 4. I did it 3 times with a Yamaha Nuovo less than 3 hours to Cha Am. Only big trucks bothering me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hili Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 As mentioned already as soon you are out of BKK no 4 is good to ride of course nothing intressting.

VocalNeal Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Do not forget the Bang Na - Prapadaeng ferry this will save all the faffing about in BKK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really legal but who cares, you can also take Rama 3 -> Bumiphol 1 bridge -> Suksawat -> Rama 2 Prapadeang -> Bumiphol 1 bridge -> Suksawat -> Rama 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
