Nice looking bike

We've a few bikers on here. One to check is Rider. He's covered Thailand on his bike and videoed most of it in transit
RICHARD OF LOXLEY

It’s none of my business what people say and think of me. I am what I am and do what I do. I expect nothing and accept everything. It makes life so much easier.

Hi GN

Nice photo from the Cha-Am pier.
If I was to recommend a trip, then it would be the old road to Phetchaburi. It follows the coastline and has many viewpoints where you can read about the plece where you are in both english and thai. There are also a number of small sideroads that will take you to small beaches.
When you get to Phetchaburi, just follow the signs for Bangkok until you get to the main road (35), and it is quite easy to get back.
I have a got a ninja as well, but I will not be back until fabruary. Maybe we can take a ride then.

Hilux.

Its about half an hour north of Chumphon, so a fair trek from HH.

Hi, my name's Phil. I'm new to this site and am also new to my CBR250......always looking out for people to ride with! Back in the saddle again, following a nasty crash in Kanchanaburi 18 months ago. No longer in possession of the GXR K7 but this bike is great!

Have a look at the rest of the forum and get posting, only 7 to go. I'm for a ride most weekends, however I'm not always in HH.
