Looks like u have covered Most of North Thailand...

So it's on to Laos & Cambodia...

:)

Keep up the safe ride..

 

Well, the fuel prices in TH is making me think twice about heading to these two destinations just to have a glimpse. Already expanded THB10,000 in fuel from Hat Yai and Im still in Northern Thailand!

It was time to turn around and head back South... I was already at the northern-most point that i can legally ride to. Memories of the stunning morning view from the top of the mountain came rushing back as i saw this sign...

South of Chiang Rai, i came across this huge convoy of bikers! Asked one of the bikers where they were headed, they told me a festival. I had to go take a look.

Some of the best corners cannot be caught on camera due to the lack of space to stop. It was really unfortunate that i was rushing for time and had no time to set up my onboard camera mount. :cry:
