taony Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 Hello there, The search function is not working well for me this morning, so pardon me if this has been discussed before. Can bicycles be brought on the BTS, MRT, SRT, Airport Link? Do people have experiences with putting a bike in a taxi? I used to ride all over Bangkok in the middle of the traffic (before it was fashionable 555). But now I am getting a little older and more afraid of pain. My bike just arrived as I've moved back to Thailand and am thinking I would take one of the trains out of the city center to have some (relatively) peaceful riding somewhere. Many thanks in advance!

Curt1591 Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 Can't remember which do and which don't. But, I remember the that I did read about required folders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MMarlow Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 Bicycles can certainly be taken on the BTS There are frequently individuals, and groups, causing congestion near the doors and generally taking up more space than anyone who has has only paid for one ticket should be allowed to.

taony Posted December 20, 2013 Author Share Posted December 20, 2013 Thanks for the info. So its only folding bikes than can be brought on board? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if the cyclist in question bought 2 tickets, it would be ok or still a no no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrantSmith Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 You're a braver man than I OP, I certainly wouldn't trust others around me if I was riding on the roads - even outside of Bangkok CBD. Lumpini Park's quite a good ride, though could get boring if it was a daily thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taony Posted December 20, 2013 Author Share Posted December 20, 2013 It can get hairy out there. But at least there are more locals riding these days. So maybe there is more awareness and cars know we exist now. I like to stay out of the far left though, because that's where all the commotion is - restaurants, people, taxis, etc etc, (there used to be an elephant walking around Sanam Pao!). Just don't know if I am brave or fit enough for that anymore. Hopefully I can ride to work once in a while though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
