Through Thailand, Cambodia & Laos by motorbike….Its an Adventure..not a holiday 🙂

The taxi arrives at 08:30 on Sat 30th, will pick up my friend Bernard on the way to Heathrow….Thai Airways to Bangkok…11 1/2 hrs :(…arrives 06.15 Sunday morning, then taxi to Pattaya (about 90 mins). Must remember to take the Malaria pills!
2 nights in Pattaya to acclimatise, should be 30degs there 🙂 Bikes arrive by truck from Chiang Mai on 31st..Meet up with Duncan & Alan from Tony’s Big Bikes…our guides.
We set off on 2nd Feb at 06:00 to ride to Cambodia, cross the border (which apparently can be quiet a challenge) and finish the first day in Phnom Phen..approx. 650Kms. We will visit the Killing Fields.
Hotels only booked at the start and finish…that should be exciting!
