kurtcap Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 can anyone advise on the above? iam concerned with where i can or cannot ride in Bkk and of course the amount of traffic (i intend doing the route on Sunday morning) a Garmin file would be even better if anyone has one.

kbelyeu Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 Recently I traveled Patts to Chonburi via Sukhumvit then Bang-Na Trad expressway (below) exiting back onto Sukhumvit in Bangkok to take the bike ferry accross the river (below Bhumibhol bride) and it was a motherf***ker. Never again.. traffic was a bitch. My suggestion is to take 315 out of Chonburi and enter Saraburi in your navigation but stop short of Saraburi. Once you are up above bangkok head west and make your way down to 35 then take it into Hua Hin which will not require crossing any bridges or driving on any forbiddon (Motorcycles) roads. I know its a bit counter intuative but you will only lose a couple hours and it will be all cruising with some nice sceanary... Over the last 5 years until all this recent shit I would just take chonburi highway into chonburi then Bang-Na trad to the industrial area and cross the Bhumibhol bridge 2 onto 35 and head out which isn't too bad but I wanted to basically try the it legal was and screw that.

hkt83100 Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 To see a report of a trip which included your route visit http://hondapcx.org/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=4103, or have a look at this part of it, which I included in the attachment. (Open in Google Earth for example) Sorry again, I am not allowed to upload the file, so you have to visit the Honda-Forum... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonsalviz Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 I have crossed on the ferry about 3 times in both directions and had very little trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fullcave Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 I have crossed on the ferry about 3 times in both directions and had very little trouble. There's a ferry? Where's it leave from and what is the destination? Oh, and do you happen to have a URL? Thanks.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VocalNeal Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 (edited) Between 13.6765476,100.5874349 and 13.6825104,100.5871023 You can see the ferry route on google maps. Look on street view you will see. Probably not ideal if you ride a BMW with giant aluminium boxes on the sides!
