TRAVELING by HARLEY & CAR!
We are a retired Aussie couple, John and Lorna & in 2023 we sold our home and most of our possessions to relocate to live the life of our dreams in beautiful Chiang Mai, Northern Thailand.
We have chosen to remove ourselves from the monetary loop of western society, one that has a person constantly having to earn money to survive.
So why not join us as we document our travels as we ride and drive along the many roads less traveled, on our Harley Davidson, Ultra Limited motorcycle & car. We plan to visit many interesting places, some of them off the beaten track. Along the way we hope to provide valuable information & many of our own revelations to others who are considering a similar lifestyle.

Good change to the channel name. Good to see you are recovering well. BTW when you travel, do you need to arrange for anyone to look after your house/pool while you are away?
Thanks for your comment on the channel name and on John's recovery much appreciated. Yes we have a team that takes care of our home.
Even you have the money to buy the property, the land does not belong to you. This will be a complicated problems when the government decide to take back the land.
That's for taking the time to drop a comment. The way we see it that wouldn't be our problem it would be the land owners.
@user-qn7es2ci8e Have a read of what I said in the last comment previous to yours in this thread. "Thats the land owners problem" I said!.. not ours!!!. Whats the Government going to do start doing, taking land off of Thai owners. FFS Do you really think for a minute we would be naive enough to not know how land ownership works in Thailand.
Thank you, please continue to show us more ideas for days out and places to visit around CM
@DebyColes thanks for your comment. We will be out and about in Chiang Mai regularly. We love exploring this City.
Good to see you both back I hope to catch up with you in CNX soon I'm planning on going to the party on the 7th at richcos so might see you there.
@seankenny3931 We will be there. We never miss a Richco party. Also our monthly HOG meet/party at same location. Look forward to meeting you 👍
@@roadsandrevelations weather permitting I will ride up from Nan on the Saturday morning. Nans under water at the moment
✌️🙏👍😊
Thanks for your comments 😊
Wow what a great episode guys ☺️
@gooddifferentadventures. Thanks guys appreciate you following our journey and all your comments. Keep them coming. 👍
Thanks guys..😊
Good job with making that work! You should follow that up by using Loctite on the screws to help them from loosening from the vibration.
I didnt show that as I had run out of Loctite. I have now added it.
Glad to see yall back! Finally able to catch up with your videos that you've posted. Freaking me out with no facial hair, lol. Does Richco finance foreigners? I heard that car dealerships do not, and it would be hard for me to come up with $25k-$30k cash for a used Street Glide.
I can't answer that question regarding Richco finance. I guess everyones circumstances are different. My advice would be to send them a message via their Facebook page. If you're not on Facebook then message back and I can give you an email address.
@@roadsandrevelations I am on FB so I'll reach out to them that way. Appreciate it!
We're 2 mths in CM, and just put a deposit on our car today. Driving OK, but parking in town is the thing that concerns us. We bought a smaller car so we can fit into smaller spaces 🙂
Yes it sure can be an experience looking for parking spots in Chiang Mai. We have a Toyota Cross which isn't too hard to squeeze into a tight park. The Harley is much easier though. 👍
👍👍👍🏍️
Thanks @MoeLarrycurly1 appreciate your comment 👍
Very good video. We arrived here in Chiang Mai from Brisbane 3 months ago. Very well said. We are loving our life here.
Thanks @beverleypeppercorn1807 for the comment. Great to read you're of a similar mindset. Chiang Mai is an amazing part of the world and life is to be enjoyed. 👍
Thanks.. we are loving Thailand.. thanks for following us..😊
Great advice 🤩
@gooddifferentadventures Thanks for the comment.. much appreciated
*guys
Well done hmguys❤
@georginacoalter8557 thanks for your comment. Much appreciated and thanks for watching the channel.
Your hat & sunnies suit you👍
Thanks Randy, glad you think the wife looks good. ☠️
Great adventures! 😊
Were you charged a VAT on your new car purchase?
Thanks for your comment. They do add vat to new vehicle purchases. But when they quote a price that usually includes VAT.
We are so excited to be in Chiang Mai!
We love Thailand for many reasons 😊
Love this place 😊
Congratulations on your beautiful house, I enjoy your videos and also your travels on the Harley. Laughable some of the negative comments about land ownership etc as you say you did not come down in the last shower and as someone with life experience you would use due diligence. I expect this is probably your forever home so land ownership not that important. I will be retiring in Thailand in 5 to 7 years with my Thai wife who has lived with me in the cold UK for 15 years and I am sure I will get everyone telling me I can not own property. We will most likely be buying land to build a bespoke forever home. Hope you enjoy your retirement in beautiful Chiang Mai
Thanks for your great comment. We love it here in our new home. Hopefully house and land prices will stay low in Thailand for you to achieve your dream location and purchase. We are sure you can't wait for the day to come. Best wishes from us both J&L
Such a beautiful location 👍
It really is! and great value too.
This couple left freedom to live in danger. Good luck!
@jonminer9891 thanks for leaving a comment. We're always learning from other peoples experiences. Can you share what dangers to look out for it might save us someday.
I’m so excited to see your journey! It’s my dream to leave NZ to live in Thailand one day too ❤
@nadanalia3000 Go for it.. life is to be lived.. We are enjoying our life here. 👍
Great episode guys thank you such a great place
Thanks guys ....Put this temple on your bucket list for sure.
Great episode.. ❤
Thanks @lornatravelqueen much appreciated 👍
Good to see your recovery has gone well! Thankyou for sharing, I am enjoying your videos.
Thanks DaniM2877 appreciate having you as a viewer. As long as someone likes what we are doing we will keep making content 👍
We dont have a HD as yet, but enjoyed watching your mod updates and sights on the way for your parts required.
Great looking place. Cheers ✌️
Thanks for your comment 👍
wow thats an intersting garden thank you for sharing ;)
Thanks for the comment guys. It sure was interesting alright.
Nothing like getting over obstacles & challenges thus gaining resilience. Nice job on the sticker, from a compositor. Is merchandise forthcoming? Just saw 'Bikeriders', I think you'd both enjoy.
Over all the obstacles. The stickers are great. We will have some available merch coming up in the pipeline.👍
Congratulations on your name change and roads ahead on the HD 🙌 we enjoyed your episode and we look forward to see where you go next time 🇦🇺
@gooddifferentadventures Thanks and we enjoyed your latest episode it was excellent also
Glad you're up & about. Speedy recovery buddy. Never heard you complain👍
Thanks @randyirvine5858. Appreciate your comment 👍
That's a privilege being invited. Good things happen to good people🙏
Yes we have met some amazing new friends here in Chiang Mai.
Wow. New home, new car, new bike. Congrats, well done you pair👍
Thanks @randyirvine5858 👍
Wishing you a speedy recovery. Life throws us curveballs. Hope your recovering in your beautiful home doing therapy in your pool. Chin up👍
Thanks for the well wishes. I'm making good use of the pool for sure👍
Sorry to hear about your fall, hope the injury is minor. Take care🙏
Not so minor, but time and good medical care are good healers.
Really enjoying your journey back to front, lol. Everything falls into place for a reason👍
We are great believers in synchronicity.
Hi John & Lorna. Now I know your story. A big congrats on your chosen destination & leap of faith. I love the fact that you had never been to Thailand. That's guts. I feel I know you both?
Thanks @randyirvine5858. Life is all about leaps of faith. Great to have you watching the channel.
Congrats on your new Corolla. Safe travels🙏
Thanks 👍
You won't tire of that👌
Thailand is a great place to wake up to.
Congratulations on your selection of your beautiful home. I'm keen to understand your move to CM. I have just retired & am planning similar, I live on the Gold Coast. Have you done any vids on relocating, visa, buying a home in Thailand? Did I miss the price?
Thank you so much! We didn't talk about the prices of houses as it varies so much anywhere from a few million Baht all the way to top lotto prizes . What is a bargain for some might not be for others. Always best to do your research. Plenty of similar properties in Chiang Mai advertised on the net.
A kiwi in Thailand, we have been in Thai for 4 weeks and bought a Toyota Revo Rocco from Buzz Toyota Minburi. The biggest show room I have ever seen, superb staff, actually magnificient, excellent deal…WOW! Free food and drinks in the waiting area, fully aircon, flowers, photos etc. So different to buying a car in NZ. Amazing Thailand.
Thanks for the great comment .. yes isn't it a breath of fresh air to be treated well when you're making a big purchase. Can really recommend getting front and rear safety cameras fitted by the dealer.
Great to see you on the mend cuz.
Thanks Cuz 👍
As a fellow HD rider, it's not a matter "If" we go down but "When" we go down, lol. Glad to see that yours was relatively minor. That's a heavy bike for sure! I bet you're back home chillin in your pool by the time I'm watching this video! Lol..
Hey there @DCGT703 thanks for your comment. The scenario could've been a lot worse that's for sure. At least I'm able to be enjoying the pool and it's a great help for ankle rehabilitation. 👍
@@roadsandrevelations Absolutely, brother! The hospitals here in the U.S. would've probably been 25x the price and 1/2 of the care. People say Thailand is a third world country but I don't believe that for one second. I look forward to seeing yall up and about again on your bike! Quick question, I have a Thunder Mountain Custom Spitfire, can anyone at your dealership that you are a HOG member at advise of whether I should have it shipped over? I just don't know if it's cost effective or not or if I should just sell it and buy one over there. Any help would be appreciated.
@@roadsandrevelations What's a good email I can reach you on? I'd like to ask you a few motorcycle questions.
Looks like everyone there treated you two so well. Such a stressful situation. $100 short notice is an exceptional price.
Thanks for taking the time to comment. Yes we were treated exceptionally well. The ability to access and get an appointment with a specialist of your own choice here in Thailand is fast and efficient. Not like most developed western countries where it can take a long time.
What a tuff guy John is to carry on after the accident...given I know the outcome. Since Eric recommended your channel, I started at the last video. Then I had to go back to see what happened.
Thanks for taking the time to comment much appreciated. What the video didn't show was the ankle also dislocated but he took care of that himself whilst sitting on the road. Otherwise he wouldn't of gotten up.
Eric from Kraken’s Garage sent me. Looks like a good hospital! Hoping for a speedy recovery.
Hey there great to read your comment ... Thanks for the good wishes much appreciated. 👍
Why didn’t you give prices. If you want to grow your channel. It’s like showing a car for sale with no price. What a waste.
Thanks for taking the time to comment. Prices are so variable here in Chiang Mai. Best just to contact an agent.
Eric sent me over, I can’t wait to check out your videos!
Thanks for checking out our channel. Welcome aboard and we hope you enjoy the video
