The Cap’ns a Legend.
Good for you putting such a resource together so that others may enjoy Thailand’s scenic byways, rather than the frenetic highways.
Obviously a labour of love, but also a civic service to his fellow bikers.
Looking forward to the snake, road-kill & creepy-crawly page…
Oh, and the 7-11 directory!
Thank you Cap’n.
Cheers

Hi Friend, I see the passion beyond it. Congratulations for your trip report, think Thailand is an endless subject for it.
Have great fun, and if once it happens you cruise near by Cha-Am around June/July/August or X’Mas (the periods we are generally in LOS) do not hesitate to make a stop to us

You’re an absolute star in the Thailand motorcycle touring world. I appreciate all your reports & photos. I’m sure you have been & are an inspiration for lots of other motorcyclists wanting to tour around Thailand.
