eskatonia Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 Hi, I did some research and there is a Thai language Facebook group for big bike riders in Bangkok but I couldn't see any international one. So I started one here: https://www.facebook.com/BangkokBigbikeInternational Its my hope that we can get some monthly meet ups or rides organized through this group, I just moved to Bangkok 3 months ago, hope to see some of you on the road. 1
H1w4yR1da Posted March 9, 2014 Posted March 9, 2014 Good idea! It's difficult to find riders who ride outside of Bangkok regularly.
ll2 Posted March 9, 2014 Posted March 9, 2014 What about a blast through kanchanaburi next weekend? Sent from my GT-N7100 using Thaivisa Connect Thailand mobile app
eskatonia Posted March 9, 2014 Author Posted March 9, 2014 Alas I don't have my Big Bike yet, will be buying it soon, hopefully next weekend.
Marcel1 Posted March 9, 2014 Posted March 9, 2014 sounds like fun hopefully ill be joining too, depending on work
RubberSideDown Posted March 9, 2014 Posted March 9, 2014 I'm not based in BKK, but I subscribe to most of the general Thai-based FB bike groups that have a large membership.

eskatonia Posted March 9, 2014 Author Posted March 9, 2014 Looking at getting a Honda Steed 400 as a cheap daily commuter while I save up to get a Ducati Diavel (hopefully six months from now).
Hili Posted March 10, 2014 Posted March 10, 2014 in the end its not that easy as it seems cause of the various types of riders and bikes; i mean let face it a supersport rider will never ride activly with a chopper/ cruiser rider and so on. In order everybody will enjoy team rides it has to match up. Funrides are diffrent again where this doesnt really matters.

In order everybody will enjoy team rides it has to match up. Funrides are diffrent again where this doesnt really matters. Not so sure about that. There is a riding group up in Chiang Rai where they have monthly rides and all kinds of bikes are welcomed. The riders themselves just split up into different groups according to riding styles, speeds etc and merely meet up at various checkpoints, for coffee breaks and lunch etc. Might not be a bad idea to have the same sort of concept down here in Bkk for monthly rides. 1
eskatonia Posted March 10, 2014 Author Posted March 10, 2014 Even if we don't get monthly rides happening the page is already a useful resource for Farangs that move to Thailand and want to get information about licenses, where to buy used bikes etc. I'll be adding more of that as time goes on. 1
