I knew Rich was going to either show up with a sandwich or a plate of sausage and chips 😂
Hahahaha early days yet for the street food! You don’t wanna get food poising on the first day 😂
เที่ยวให้สนุก มีความสุขมากๆ นะคับ คนไทยยินดีต้อนรับคับ🙏
Thank you so much
Awesome. Looking forward to this one. Enjoy guys. 👌🏻
Thank you! We are also excited for this one. Glad to have you here with us for the journey
Brilliant already. Can't wait for more 👍
We are nervous I have to admit but equally as excited for it all 😊
Nice guys ! So you're doing an Itchy Boots in Thailand, or are you going to ride into other neighboring countries as well?
As usual even we don’t know the exact plan for the next few weeks, guess we will all have to find out together 😃
Brilliant canny wait for your adventure
Thank you! We are quite excited for this one too, it’s just different riding here.
Love Eva trying the broth with pig guts and Rich having an egg bap - priceless
I don’t think it’s going to be that easy the whole trip! Out of town finding food is getting much harder for Rich 🤣
I didn't see this coming. Should be an absolute banger of a trip. Plenty of things to look forward too, not the least of which is Rich reacting to the local cuisine. I reckon he's the got the palate of 8-year-old girl from Notting Hill. I recommend stuffing some tater tots in your pocket just in case.
Trust me we didn’t see this coming either until we booked the tickets last minute 😂 Hope we are prepared enough for this.
Rich can always have some plain rice hahaha hope he can indulge in some local cuisine, there is some choice in Bangkok but not sure there is much out there once it gets more remote
Well this is very different. i certainly want to go to Bangkok at some point. looking forward to the rest of the adventure. Love you bye lol
So many people love Thailand and Bangkok we had to try it for ourselves
Amazing place.
Fabulous food. Amazing people and roads for biking are out of this world!!
Explored north of Chang Mai in April this year.
You will NOT be disappointed!
Amazing! What bike did you use for your adventure? Any specific places in the north that were your absolute favourite?
@ I hired a Versys 650.
Mae Hong Son twisties were incredible which is 1864 road curves/twisties at 1200m above sea level.
Road 3 was fabulous too.
No rules on the roads btw!
Organised Chaos!
If there’s a gap… Fill it!
Whoop Whoop, Thailand awesome, I couldn't wait to see what Rich was going to eat!!😀 You can't go wrong with egg on toast. looking forward to the next episode emensley.
Rich needs to take all the local food slow to minimise the shock hahaha I’m sure he will be eating like locals by the time we are done here 😂 Glad to have you with us for the journey
Hi Guys
Rich is going to love the food & kathoeys.
Get yourself to Patpong night market for a game of ping pong😉
Good luck
Cheers Barry 🏍
We are in the less tourist area of Bangkok I believe seems more local but yes there is a lot to explore only in Bangkok so hope we get the chance to do it all before we leave. Thank you Barry we need some good luck 😊I personally cannot wait for Rich to try all the local cuisine 😂😂
I think the life expectance of a motorcyclist in Bangkok is the same as Athens , about 30 mins that includes getting it started 🤪
you had the best meal Rich , ewa,s looked rank 🤮
looking forward to the next episode 👍
The traffic is exactly as you say in every big city and we have not even try riding yet! Seems all very very dynamic to say the least….. 😂
Awesome Rich and Eva!! Well done you guys, another awesome series on the way! Have a great time and rise safe! Lezzz gooo!! 👍👍
This place is delightful madness!
Wow you two are crazy very surprised on this video looking forward for the next one.Thank you for sharing
Thanks Ron, Thailand fits our bill….. Hot and sunny and very cheap!
Another adventure to look forward too even my wife enjoys these and shes not a biker :) stay safe both of you :)
Say hello to your wife from us! Hope you two will enjoy this adventure with us
Just remember:
One night in Bangkok and the world's your oyster,
The bars are temples but the pearls ain't free....
Great to see you back, and somewhere HOT!!!
We definitely missed the sunshine ☀️ so here we are in the centre of it 😂
Oooo wow! Can’t wait for more from you! Bangkok looks rather crazy for bikers
It is!
Wow you are in Thailand! I wanna know more, can’t wait to follow your adventures there
More to come!
Just awesome
Cheers
Brilliant,stay safe and really looking forward to this.
Thank you very much! Glad to have you here
Great vlog enjoy your adventure but no Extra Mature Cheddar out there 😂
No cheddar here 😂 we will have to survive but there is always cheese toasties in 7/11
Great video as always ! 😃
Thank you! Glad to have you here for the adventure 😊
Enjoy guys, looks amazing. I'm not jealous, OK, maybe a bit haha. Have fun and ride carefully, them streets look like race tracks
Thank you 🙏 Somehow it feels there is some harmony to all this madness on the roads or maybe we were just mentally prepared for much worse.
This is completely new one from you! Did not see this on the cards to be honest! I bet it’s very hot in the bike gear
You are right this is completely new for us and very exciting we cannot wait to get on a bikes and start the journey! Hot could be a little of an understatement 😂
Most excellent.
An oriental adventure with a Cornish/Polish perspective.
I'm setting the vhs.
Ride safe 👍
I don’t know much but I’m sure it will be some adventure here! Can’t wait for it all! 😊
Really looking forward to this one guys., take care ✌️😎
Cheers Mark, should be in for a laugh
Oh now this is going to be really exciting! Have fun and be careful 🤗
Thank you! Will do!
Fantastic enjoy 😊
Thank you 🙏 We cannot wait to explore more of Thailand
Terrific guys…what a surprise to see you in Thailand.Really looking forward to your adventures,especially what you’re riding.
We are so excited to explore, we have never been anywhere like this and it’s so cheap we can do it
You're taking me on a wonderful journey. I'm a disabled pensioner reliving some of my youth through you pair. Thank you so much. If I have a stroke and a heart attack whilst laughing too much at you two, it won't be a bad way to go. lol.. Have fun and look out for each other.
Glad you’re enjoying our videos bud! Great to have you with us
Enjoy the time , take it all in .
Thank you! It does feel like a lot to take in 😃 all so fascinating
I'm so excited for this Food Odyssey, Rich!!!!
😂😂😂😂
I’m glad you are!! Edible food is becoming more scarce here 😂
Last affordable paradise on earth. Me and wife off to Phuket in December
Thats why we came here, its so cheap, cheaper than staying home!
For your next hotel Take care U2, enjoy! I’will! Greeting Ties
You sir are a legend! Thank you! We are loving Thailand prices, we paid 600bht for our small room tonight that about £13! It’s basic but plenty good enough for us! We don’t fancy camping with the cobra’s!
For your interest, the bottle of green tea is from Shizuoka which is a town to the SW of Tokyo. I lived there for a year playing music and it is renowned for the quality of its tea which is grown and prepared there.
Cool, we would like to visit Japan one day
Yes normal practice to take a deposit... i have a condo about 1 hour 30 from bangkok ... be careful in the traffic when riding the driving culture is different... i hope you brought your international driving licence or you can be fined... its an amazing place so enjoy
you should have got a sim at the airport they do i month a a cheap rate i use true
not sure hpw long you are there but if i can help just ask
I think it takes a moment to get used to the money, 500 sounds like a lot but it’s not in conversion, good to know it’s normal practice even when booked online.
We have the international driving license and some bike gear and a credit card to fix what we forgot 😂 we sorted the sim card the next day, saw a lot online not to get one on the airport.
Do you spend holidays only in Thailand or did you move here permanently? I can def see why people would seems such a nice place to be once you can cope with the heat
i love travelling around asia and thailand a great central point ill spend 5 months a year eventually at the moment its 2 months ... on the road undertaking is normal so more life savers needed.... im interested in what you ride ... i love my triumph 1200 in the uk but ride a 150 scooter in thailand lol... the cost of living is so cheap my condo block gas a full gym and two pools and costs 400 a year in maintenance .... i hope its going well ... i always top up my sim at the airport the price diff is not worth the hasel of waiting until you go elsewhere... am looking forward to seeing the bikes ypu hire
We can see why you like it so much here
Beautiful 🤩 stay safe enjoy your travels ❤
Thank you! Will do!
Enjoy yourself can’t wait to see how you get on with the traffic stay safe
It’s madness here!! You’ll see very soon when we get on the road
Crikey...Rich is going to miss his food!
There is still some cheddar in the fridge from the uk …… it’s not gonna last in this heat so yes he will miss it greatly 😂
Hope you love Thailand, I know i would ! Looking forward to see how you get on ! My best wishes to you both from the Philippines ♥️👍💪😉😀😁🏁🛺🏍️🐑🇵🇭🏴⭐
Thanks so much, we hope we can show you around a bit here
Wow! Can you visit the triumph-factory? I would love to see how my bike was made. All the best to you and happy trails.
We will have a look and see if it’s on route, have you been to the triumph centre at Hinckley? They do tours I believe
Awesome. Wish you the best of luck and the most fun you ever had. Just enjoy your time and I hope Rich will be able to find something to eat once you are outside of Bangkok 😀
yeah well funny you say that mate.... We are outside of Bangkok now currently starving in a hotel room lol...
@ontheroadadventure oh no! Hope you will get something to eat soon. All the best!
Enjoy.
Thank you 🙏
This is going to be epic! Even more so for me as I am off to Thailand in 5 weeks 🇹🇭 🏝️ 🏍️
You will learn allot from us as first timers then. Download the Grab app before you go, you will need it for food and transport!
I'm glad you are both back. Enjoy
Thank you!
Can’t wait to follow this trip, Love Bangkok Rich not sure you will find your cheddar cheese. Can’t wait to see your face with the street food. Hope you are going to be converted to trying a scooter 🛵
You’ll have to see in the next one what wheels we get…
Wow great fun . Great stream both . looking forwards to the rest of the trip .Ride safe love to both. 👍👍👍
Cheers bud, this should be interesting!
Thailand is the best. I love the food, the people, the weather, the scenery. Not so keen on the mozzies!
As for the traffic, everyone has right of way but somehow it works. I think the law states that you should wear a helmet, but you are more likely to see it strapped on the bike than on the rider's head!
Yes we see them carrying the helmets on the bike but not on their heads! No mozzies really yet to speak of
Great to see you on the road again I’m sorry Ewa, you will eat anything !!!!, Rich on the other hand, my kinda food Can’t wait to follow your travels 👍👍🏴
Cheers bud, yes Ewa will try to eat almost anything 😂
You could always try one of the 3 Triumph factory’s near Bangkok to see if they have any demos😊
Finding the right contact is always the hard part for their PR team
fantastic thailand 🤩!!!! . i have been there twice. Lovely people & Food .
chicken cashewnut and pad thai was my favorite and that round thing in the soup as probably a ball of fish or water chestnut.
I wish you fantastic travels
I think you are right it did taste like fish ball.
People here are incredibly nice and it all feels so safe, we definitely need to explore the food more here will remember the chicken cashew nut to try. Did you ride a motorbike in Thailand?
No, I've been there with my family. Also in Malaysia also a very nice country. I don't think I would have dared. too chaotic. I do ride a motorcycle in my own country the netherlands
We love the Netherlands, beautiful place to ride
@@ontheroadadventure Thank you ! And so is the UK! I love the video's of Cornwall, Wales Devon, New Forest etc etc...😘
Hi Rich and Ewa, head up to Loei. good roads and scenery is fantastic around there. Highway 12 is a good fast road and not too much traffic. If you head north close to the Laos border, roads are quiet, plenty of curves and make your way towards Nan. Bo Klua on the1081is the one of the best biking roads in Thailand and then make your up to the golden triangle on the Laos, Burmese border . Much cooler and really good roads in the north, head over to Mae Hong Song then down to Mae Sariang on the 108 and the 105 to Mae Sot. Another one of the many great rides in Thailand,, very quiet road and wonderful scenery. No need for your camping gear here, as you can get a decent room with ensuite for around 500 Baht. Beware, if a vehicle flashes you, it means get out of my way and they are NOT letting you out! Keep your wits about you and always be prepared for anyone and dogs to pull out in front of you. If you have time, Laos is a really nice country to visit, especially if you are on a couple of dirt capable bikes, not too sure if Rich would be too keen on the barbecued road kill though! Have a safe and great trip guys.
Thanks some great tips there, the heat is mega today in Bangkok so cooler would be ace! Keep following and we will see how we get on 👍
Wow Guys! That’s awesome being in Thailand. Not sure about the local dishes though 😊 I thought that was shark fin that ewa was eating . I know you’re both good riders but anything goes so please be careful. Enjoy !
Thanks Pete, yes the roads are crazy here, we can’t wait to ride out of Bangkok and to the quieter roads
Great adventure for you guys, I don't know if I could handle riding a bike there, I find riding in rhe uk crazy enough, glad you have all your gear with you, have fun. 👍
Thanks, yes we wouldn’t ride without our gear no matter how hot it is. Better safe than sorry
Wow didn't see that coming what a brilliant adventure 👏 enjoy your travels 😀
Thanks so much, we like to keep you on your toes!
Glad to see you both on the road 😊
Thanks! Some different roads here!
Looking forward to this trip…..and Rich loosing several kg! Ride safe both
You could well be right there bud!
Have a top time guys 👌
Thanks reg!
Sea weed crisps are amazing!!!! Try it!😮😅 HAVE SOOO MUCH FUN AND GREAT EXPERIENCES 🎉
Thanks ☺️
It’s grey and mildly damp here in Devon so I can see the appeal of somewhere warm. If you get chance try a bag of crisps as I’m told they are really hard to open there compared to the uk bags. I’m intrigued to know if it’s true.
Yes Thailand is sunny and very cheap 👍 No drama opening crisps though?
Guys you should of got an E-sim before you left UK
We looked at esims they seem to be much more expensive than the physical card. Is there any specific brand of esims you get?
@@ontheroadadventure Saily seem good to me. $17 for 20GB / 30days
Really looking forward to this one guys 👍🏼 Would have loved to see you eat that sandwich Rich !!!! Maybe a bib in case you make a mess 😂😂😂😂 and hats off to you Ewa, don’t think I could eat that unless I knew exactly what it was 🤔
Yeah it was messy business 😂 Ewa will try almost anything! She’s much braver than me!
Make sure when you check out of a rented room -- video how you left it for future reference
A good tip 👍
My grandad used to love carnation milk in his tea 🍵, it wasn't something I got used to.
Guys, you've gotta try some kymchi noodles 🍜 I'm a meat eater, but they taste divine 😋.
I am looking forward to this series of your adventures.
Thanks for sharing, and see you on your next adventure 👊 🤙 🤘
Thanks we will look out for the noodles to try
Stirred some great memories there, I prefer the areas away from Bangkok but the whole country is great . If you get the chance & time go to Vietnam and Cambodia absolutely lovely places to visit
Thanks, hopefully we will get about a bit here
Since we spend the winters up in Chiang Mai, will be following this one. Lots of motorcycle taxis in Bangkok, try one for a bit of excitement. Check out the skytrain & subway, very nice & cheap.
Thanks! We are loving it here, constantly having our minds blown!
@ontheroadadventure Yes, we can't wait to get back. Do try a Thai Massage. Bangkok, so many things to do, so little time.
Yep, flew to Bangkok (16+ hrs with stopover in Dubai) arrived via taxi from airport; settle into hotel then went out exactly were you are and had street food. Yes it was crazy on the road with all those scooters and Tut Tuts but got use to it. Next day took the train to Singapore on the Eastern Orient express via the bridge over the river Kwia (Didn't see Alex Guinness!) and the cemetery of the fallen on Death railway, makes you think from within. Are you going up or down south to Singapore. thanks for you adventures.
I bet that train journey was pretty epic, we want to see the bridge ourselves
@@ontheroadadventure Don't get too excited as the film bridge over the river Kwia made was in another location (India?) and not here but you can walk over it. there is a museum and worth a look for understanding what went on in Burma during the occupation. Suggest you take a tut tut ride its unforgettable, you have to barter on price like all Asian countries. Have a river trip and get frightened with the v8 hanging of back and narrowness of the boat.
Looking forward to watching more of your adventures in a place with huge cultural differences
Oh yes, very different to anything either of us have seen before
😎😎😎 Nice!!
Cheers for joining us! See you in the next one ☝️
Have fun can't wait to see you 2 riding in Bangkok 🏍🏍🏍👍🤣🤣🤣
It’s madness here
Oh! This is going to be cool!
Ironic as it’s sooo hot! 🥵
U2 are in for a big adventure!!!
Culture and food wise. 😂
You’re not wrong! People are so nice here
Should be a lovely holiday. How do you get the time off work! I'm nervous even thinking about riding in that traffuc 😂
Don’t worry we are nervous too 😂
❤
❤️😃
Great to see y'all in Thailand. Hopefully Y'all will show Rich eating some more strange food, 😂. Enjoy your trip.
Will try to convince him…
Rich and Thai street food…ummmmmm. Interesting!
It’s going to be a hard few weeks!
very good you guys enjoy
Thanks bud!
Happy trails kids! Eat the good food and enjoy the sights! You only pass this way but once. Xxxx
Thanks so much! It’s all very different here, but very cheap too 👍
Try the original Red Bulls they come it small bottles they’re about 25p and in every Seven Eleven 👍
It’s still called redbull?
@ yes it’s in a small glass bottle
Hello
Hello 👋
That round thing Ewa may have been a fish eye 🤣. One place I’ve yet to visit but I believe it’s pot luck what food you get lol
The food here is proper dodgy! As you say, you’ve no idea what you’re going to get. When it says chicken, it’s a mistake to think your going to get a nice bit of chicken breast
Have you taken the tent though?
No need it’s so cheap here we can take small rooms
Do excited to see how this works out! Can’t believe Rich is in Thailand 😂😂
This is going to be a full survival situation 😂
Have a great time, hope you've packed some Imodium you're braver than I am.
I did!
What no campfire 😂
We have to check if this can beat a campfire on a freezing night somewhere in the British countryside 😂
I'm a very tall man 2meter if you are walking arount at the markets I hef to look out four al those wires hangen above and try all the street food there
Yeah we had a couple times like there with the cables and also gotta watch where your walking around the concrete stairs too the train too, really easy to bang your head!
enjoy, i live half the year Scotland & half in Khon Kaen NE Thailand
Some great riding in the north, such as Mae Hong Song Loop
500 baht deposit hotel is normal & nothing to worry about
Watchout driving / riding, give way to traffic pulling out on you from junctions be super defensive, watchout for continual undertaking & driving on wrong side of the road
ps menthal inhalers can get addictive
We can see why so many people come here, wow is it hot though!
@ontheroadadventure Actually its now the beginning of cool season. Try March to October if you want hot, the key issue is the humidity which is higher during that period
We are struggling as it is now!!
Omg ale tam ruch
It’s very very busy here and we have not even tried riding here! Looks very challenging
Ah class Thailand!! Best advice, Google the toilet stops! Be prepared 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ohhh god 😂
I lived in Thailand for 8 years. A fabulous country, and it will leave a lasting impression on your memory for ever. Please be very very careful when you ride your bikes anywhere in Thailand as the roads are deadly. Some Thai's let children ride motorcycles on main roads, and the adult sense of road safety and highway code does not exist.
You’re not wrong the roads are madness here!!
Wow didn’t expect this one due to Rich being adverse to strange cuisine,try the snake it’s supposed to taste like chicken
Rich took some convincing I can tell you! 😂😂
@ I can imagine 😂 look forward to the Adventure
It ain’t gunna be easy for any of us 😂😂
❤❤❤🎉🎉
Thanks 🙏
You and Eve stay away from the giggly weed, 😂. If you don't ,enjoy the munchies 😅
😂 We haven’t been tempted yet but it’s early days!
I guessed wrong, I thought, you guys were heading to India, for extreme Tours
So many there doing the same thing right now, we wanted to provide some variety 👍
Get an Airalo eSIM for phone
Thanks we sorted them now 👍
สวัสดีครับ❤❤
Hello 🙏
You got to try the insects on a stick.
That’s one for Ewa 😂😂
Wow! You guys in Thailand and Sean and Emily in India!!
Looks like we all are missing some sunshine! This could be just a little too sunny here 😂😂
You must try a Pina Colada in a coconut while you're there.
We don’t drink alcohol but we did drink from a fresh coconut
Be carful with ice cubes
Yeah we are being very cautious with the water
