As promised, here are some of the best pics I have so far. More will probably pop up later in the week from other riders.

I didn't have much time to choose my shots, but there were other professionals clicking away and making movies. Once I get hold of those, I will publish them on the blog.

We had around 100 bikes this year! It was a bit chaotic at times, trying to organize things and get people moving, but in the end it all worked out. The only let down was the planned ride to the dam. We were almost there, when menacing black clouds and lightning made us change our minds. One lightning bolt was so close I could see the sparks flying! So we headed back to the starting point were we auctioned off t-shirts sponsored by Ducati Thailand and 2 helmets by Elders Helmets.

Thank you again BSJ and NormanW for the contribution! You are great guys! thumbsup.gifwai.gif

I did miss Thaiwi's Cub, though....

Fantastic!

Couldn't wipe the smile off my face all day.

Great people and great bikes.

Thanks OmegaRacer. Aitch52 bramds and BSJ.

Major case of FOMO happened on Sunday. Also another giant case of jealousy just went down. Glad you guys had a great time!

Next year or even a special trip to visit the pattaya crew? ??

Definitely. Might be picking up another cub if all goes to plan. Classic c70/90 that's resorted to original spec. Then once the rain disappears, I'll surely come adventure your way.

Great pics, amazing to see this event grow so quickly - well done to the organizers and hopefully be able to attend next year.

I thought it was a great day. OmegaRacer is doing a fantastic job with the organisation....the man is irreplaceable!

It was nice to met the Pattaya crew....well,the ones that came along.

Hoping to make it next year....but it will be a 500km + trip each way as we will be in Pitsanulok province.

Yes good to meet you all, lost you on the way back BSJ, one if those nuisance Hi~Aces blocked the carriageway and by the next set of lights you were gone. Great day out!

Hi aitch52, I got to the first servo knowing you wanted benzene.....looked around and couldn't see you. Then I began to wonder if you had got in front of me in the traffic! Oh well, you got home safe then.

Hi BSJ, yes home safe. Made the mistake of taking the Rayong turnoff route 7 at Laem Chabang, must be 15 kms of roadworks, dust and rough temporary roads. 2 major accidents and tailback. OK When I got to the real 7. Happy Trails.

Oh dear, is that major mess still under destruction! I'd been out to Bowin to get the wife's daughters Scoopy almost a year ago now and somehow missed the right road to come into Pattaya via Lake Maprachan and ended up down there. It was a truckpark! I ended up driving the dirt verge with potholes the size of shell craters!

Yes afraid so mate it is still fubar road, but safely negotiated, just ha ha

Hey gents

Check out the official video made by Ride and Pride:

Thanks for posting that video Markus.

Great video, thanks!

Nice video indeed, funny to hear a German song in a Thai made video.

The vid also features my favorite Ducati: the 900 MHR ( first view at 1:30)

I think they need a bit of a leg up! Maybe we need a whip around for some baht to send Marcus over there to show em how it's done. thumbsup.gif
