Hi guys, had been back from almost 2weeks. Finally I have the time now to put up the pics. I will put it in batches as there are quite a number of photos taken over the 14days.

 

The link is as follows:

 

http://zeevincez.blogspot.com/2007/01/zeev...trip-north.html

 

Only DAY1 - DAY3 photos are out for the time being.

 

To be continue.....

Wow, you are a very solid guy! Respect!

 

Seriously Mediacorp should shoot a series entirely on you, I'm sure many people will watch and want to be like you.

 

Reading your blog and seeing the photos have brought joy and dreams back to my boring life......

 

One question, normal road bike can make the trip or not? Or need scrambler type of bike? Thanks.

I'm new to this area of the forum, but YZFx mentioned that he was inspired by other people's write up and photos to do his rides.

 

Does anyone know where I could go to read those writeups? It's a great escape from working life...

Yah, middle aged guys like us got a little bit mid-life crisis, need some excitement...everyday just work and look after family, no time to think of anything else, this thread and the pictures really bring back some dreams...

 

Wow, ride up with kup kia, really steady! Backside open flower..haha!

 

I have to start slow, haven't gone touring for a long while, think start with m'sia trips first. Once I'm ready I hope I can make friends with you guys and follow along for a trip.

 

Thanks to all who post such trip reports and pictures, you guys bring joy into our lives.

Hi Middleagebiker,

 

Maybe you can organise a simple trip and ask "experienced riders"

to join. Count me in.:smile:

do u mean in thailand or in north thailand?? Petrol stations can located along the highways. if your full tank can do u 200, you r damn safe dude. In MSH, u will find them in all towns. No worries about that. Petrol is not a problem... :smile:

petrol station? PTT has signs up to 2km away leading up to their stations.generally,the frequency of service stations all over thailand is more than sufficient.

 

cheap guest house? if it looks cheap, walk in and ask for the price.then ask to view the room before making the decision to commit. Guesthouses tend to be away from the city and near train/bus stations.

 

anyway,i have no idea how cheap u want the guesthouse to be,but here's a tip.sometimes when i over run my riding schedule,i'll just pop into a 24 hrs PTT satation n spend my night there. U've got a 7-11 at your disposal(i sleep right outside it),big toilets,food on demand. u'll get an endless flow of people coming in n out,so your scenery always changes.
