  • Touching down from Chiang Mai Thailand once again. It's my first day back since my mini road trip to Pai Northern Thailand. Am I missing Pai and being somewhere new? I'm already thinking of my next Thai road trip. Today I have a walk and talk about Pai and my future plans.

    You can make a trip up to Mae sai. Cross the border to Maymar for a day. Then on to the golden triangle, Chiang Saen (stop there when it's full moon), Chiang Khong, then take a turn into Laos (You can't drive into Laos with a 125cc. Then go back to Chiang mai via Chiang Rai . a trip of about 700 km . You can do that easily with a 125 cc . My wife and I did this trip a few years ago on our 125 cc . Good roads and a lot to explore

    Couple of things Wayne. It's always good practice to keep a rain poncho with you if you're travelling out of town(in case you don't have have one already). It can be very useful if you are riding a motorbike. My personal two recommendations near CM are Lampang and Chiang Rai. Stay safe, have fun 😊👍🏼

    The local government has done a great job with the canal. The same goes in Bangkok. The canals seem to be getting a much needed facelift. I remember 10 years ago, the canals were essentially open sewers and heavily polluted. You would stay well clear of them. Now the canals look quite pleasant. It is good to see a growing environmental focus.

    • @WalkAboutWayne
      @WalkAboutWayne  ปีที่แล้ว

      I agree, It's a great project and it looks so much better. It's a pleasant walk and i never smell anything (although it is still sewage) I think it's a nice area. Thanks.

    Really like the way you express your plans with motorbike. I'd suggest you Aerox 155 to be your buddy for the next trip. Find one in good low mileage from a shop in CM. It'll be totally different event though you go the same route.
