    Hi Shane Thank for taking the time to post that adventure. It just goes to show that there are still opportunities for exploration if you are a bit cheeky and proceed as if you have every right to be there! Even if you don't.. 5555 Keep up the good work!

    Nong Khiaw To Muang Ngoy

    Hi Shane Thanks for taking the time to share that with us, the photos really are stunning! Those drone photos in particular are spectacular as they give a birds eye viewpoint that most us us will never see. What kind of drone and camera setup do you have??? It must be small and compact in...

    4010 - Not For The Faint Of Heart....

    Good grief - 26% is awfully steep! You'd have to do a very dry mix of concrete to stop it sliding off the hillside! Operating construction machinery on that angle must be very scary - no margin for error if you miss a gear change on the way up.

    Mae Hong Son Loop...... Without The 108 Or 1095

    Hi Shane - I really enjoyed that write-up, well done! There are so many undocumented trails, tracks, roads and villages in the huge area encompassed by 108 / 1095, you could spend weeks exploring out there. The generous hospitality extended to strangers is a hallmark of ethnic people...

    In Search Of The Salween And Moei Rivers' Confluence

    Well done, it is a great trip out there, great report and fantastic photos. I've done it many times in the Hilux 4WD over the years, but never on a bike. My ex-wife is from Sob Moei village at the confluence. Coming up out of Sob Moei in the Hilux can be a real challenge if there is a hint of...

    Bay Of Bengal On A Cbr150

    That's a fascinating look into the reality of travel and life in the country next door. The "main highways" look more like KLX / CRF terrain to me! :) You've obviously got a highly developed sense of adventure, excellent write-up and glorious photos. - the old temples over that way are...

    Chiang Khong - Gt-rider Up-country Dinner Trip - Jan 2019

    The ride to Chiang Khong from my part of the world is 500 kms, and I decided to break it up with a night in Phayao and catch up with Moto-Rex and Scotty. A late (11 am) start influenced the route. Roadworks precluded the 118, heavy traffic and miles of dust and dirt on roadwork is no fun. The...
