moose7117 Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Is anybody going to the bike races in March? I am trying to organise accommodation for some friends and if any body can help that would be appreciated Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H1w4yR1da Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 3 of us are. I booked 3 rooms quite a while ago as I could see from Agoda.com that they were going quickly and there aren't that many hotels in Buriram. Check Agoda. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ll2 Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 all i know all the accommodation in town is full and people were getting accommodation at the districts around 30 km away from Buri Ram. luckily my mate booked the rooms a month and a half ago. did you check agoda.com, hotels.com or bookings.com?

H1w4yR1da Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Yep... but I'm camping.Camping? Sod that! What with all the mosquitos, reptiles etc.Give me an A/C room, hot shower and cable tv any day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DILLIGAD Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Buriram is probably full. You might want to try Surin (easy ride away) or even Krasang which is a lot nearer & has a couple of resorts there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macknife Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Try contacting the 'short time hotels' (resorts) There is at least 2 that I know of within about 5 minutes of the track. Along the side road next to 'Big C'. It's certainly possible people haven't considered contacting these places. They are decent rooms and I have stayed in them for a few days at a time before. (For convenience ) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ll2 Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 sure if you go buri ram, ride around and ask all hotels, you can get a room but sure a lot of time will be wasted and still you might not find any room. try Nan Rong too. biggest district of Buri Ram and not so far.

I am booked in at hotel in Surin a week ago, and just looked they are all booked now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Dutchbike Posted January 27, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted January 27, 2015 As LL says try Nang Rong ( 60km from the track) a few nice hotels there. But when you're into camping this might help:https://www.facebook.com/pages/Camping-29-Buriram/339311759573237?sk=info&tab=page_info I remember that the Buriram United Organisation set up a camping in the old stadium during the opening races last October, looks quite organised, maybe they will do something similair in March. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MYKTHEMIN Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Well I was going, but am still awaiting ticket prices from the world superbike website, who say they are still in negotiation with the organisers, what a load of crap, will instead go to the MotoGP in Sapang, which is well organised and not stupid awkward to buy tickets and if rumours are correct are only 25% the cost and KL is great for a few days. so no contest.

Bluetongue Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 The tickets or "reservations" are available from 7/11 but I was reading something on Allticket.com about having to pick the ticket up from one of 30 locations ie not every 7/11. I went through the trouble of registering with Allticket.com, don't know why because there is no buy option after doing so. So I'm gonna ring em up and use my barely passable Thai if necessary to establish where the tickets can be collected from. For sure you will need a copy of the Thai ID card you used at the 7/11 initially, the Thais are weird about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biker Bob Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Try Lucky Homestay in Krasang. Krasang is about 25 kilometers from Buriram, on the way to Surin. www.luckyhomestay.com 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, tickets are overpriced. I've noticed ticket prices at recent events at BRIC stadium have been rather pricey. The MotoGP a few years back at Sepang was 800 Bt for Grandstand. WSBK is 2k for Grandstand at Buriram this year even though in comparison, WSBK is less prestigious. It does have better racing though and you do get 2 races.

MYKTHEMIN Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 WSB is no match for MotoGP as far as I am concerned and Sapang is far better than Buriram! the tickets are just too high and too difficult to get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikebike Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 I've been to MGP @ Sepang eight times... I'm looking forward to seeing the WSBK circus! From what I understand its a much more chill and fan-friendly paddock. Tickets "too difficult to get" is a bit of a joke... there is no way in hell this event will be sold out so how hard is it to just show up and walk in?

I also look at the menu card outside a restaurant if I never been there before and sometimes walk if I find the prices too high. I also ask the taxi bike dude for a price for my wanted destination before we go and sometimes haggle a bit. Have nothing to do with; let a life, but more about being informed.

mikebike Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 (edited) So after all the speculation it turns out a three day pass for Buriram is about 750 baht to 2330 baht depending on location. wsbk.tiff Edited February 6, 2015 by mikebike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
