Riding in Bangkok!!!

[PiAnt]

I'm sure some of you know that I have this:

But, I almost exclusively use one of these:

(Exactly like this one. Reg A Quarter to 7 if you see me let on.)

To get to work and back and around the city. To be honest, it makes getting about a breeze. Running and maintenance costs are pennies and a small fraction of what a big bike costs.

Apart from the near death experiences, I love riding around Bangkok.

Anyone else riding around Bangkok?

Anecdotes?

[Chatty]

Hmm I think this event is so interesting..

Forgive me, i didn't see myself i'm too heavy for the bike, i guess...

If you have next travelling event which no age / weight / or any physical limit please let me know... I'm 100% join you guys.

My bike is only 115cc motorbike.

The safe weight for this bike is 135 kg....

I am 75 kg.

Therefore me + 60kg is safe

I don't like riding a long way with a 80kg farang guy on the back - it's bad for my suspension and it's difficult to handle the bike safely.

This is not a fat issue... it's a safety issue.

If I may say, pls stop discussing about "color dress code" as I am enough with those colors on the politics matter, otherwise, I will wear a rainbow shirt on that day. In my opinion, anyone wear whatever color that look best on them or comfy with.

100% agree kha...

I don't have riding license so should I have it before the event? Is it difficult to have it done and how?

PS : I am Thai and was born here but that doesn't mean I am an expert nor "Miss Know It All". 8)

[English_Bob]

Easy for a license. I got mine in 45 minutes at Pahonyothin Road. Great service!

Don't know it's same as Car driving license but i don't think it's difference. Just take a test.. and then do riding test. Quite easy... It's easy for me, so I don't think it's hard for you. 仢¹Êè§ÃèþÕè µÃ§¢éÒèµØ¨Ñ¡Ã ä»àªéÒ¡éôչ乨Ãä´éÃèÒÂàÂÃÃ
