- Thread starter Moto-Rex
- Start date
Oh awesome! Damn, was planning on going to Nan that weekend, then heard about the MC Lobo Bike Party in Nong Khai same weekend and decided to go there, but now I hear Marco can't make it so I'm tempted to change plans again... Decisions, decisions- so many great places to ride! :mrgreen:
Would love to go there but am busy in Bangkok this weekend...... :cry: .
Buuuuuuuuut, will go there many times especially between 10th of April and 9th of May as this will be the time between old :evil: & new :lol: job....
.
For those who go to Nan this week, have fun, especially on the road between Chang Muan and Nan and enjoy the party !!!!!!
Cheers, Franz

by main event i mainly mean when all the PG girls will be doing their thing.
any info appreciated, just got back from nan a couple days ago and am raring to go again. 1081 or 1148? which is better????!!!!
p.s is it mainly a gay chopper party or will there be sportbikes aswell there?

My info is the main party is on the Friday 15th, but that actually strikes me as odd, because I would "naturally" figure it to be the Saturday 16th; but then again the dates are 14 -18th.
It would only be a gay chopper scene if you were only focused on "gay choppers", but so what.
Luke "any info appreciated" good idea, when are we going to see a trip report from you - you must be getting tired of lurking after all these months.
I will be heading out of Cnx tomorrow late morning. Riding in on R1091 again. PM me if you want to ride over together. Moto-Rex is in Phayao tonight & will be riding in on R1091 as well.

We are here! Wicked fun! Watch out- the dew is slippery :shock:
Tony
Any early pictures for us who cant be there??? :cry:
Cheers Marco!
Wish you were here!
Who needs big bikes? :wink:
Quite the adventure ride!
I think I'm going to call it "1243 the WRONG way!"
Good fun, though Spud was not too happy at the time on his R1 with shagged rear tire...
I think in this picture Bakerboy is trying to convince him not to kill me :lol:
Ride On!
Tony

Yes Marco- that was the 1268 along the Thai-Lao border- very cool road through some stunning valleys.Marco wrote:

Poor Spud couldn't join us on yesterday's fantastic ride-
It's the second time he's come to Nan and been unable to ride :roll: (Last time was a broken clutch cable...
Fortunately Bakerboy was able to get in touch with ShowPow in Bangkok and they sent a new tire up by bus that arrived last night. Now Spuds trying to find a shop here in Nan that can install the tire on a Sunday morning...
Ha ha! Wonder what time we'll get back to Bangkok :lol:

Well it was called the Nan Country Music & Biker Festival, and the emphasis seemed to be on the "Country" Music aspect with the Bikes second.
Different it was, but none of this was negative & I positively enjoyed myself all weekend such that I'll be back for sure at the next one.
The whip cracking cowgirls were something to behold & watch
Captain Slash with a small measure of shandy!
The cowgirls dismounted from the stage & joined the GT Rider table. 8) 8)
Moto-Rex was highly impressed
when it was revealed they were Chinese students studying in Chiang Mai (at an undisclosed college. :wink
The Leo babes were also impressive
Enough to drive a man to drink
But not to forget the variety of bikes present
And spectators
An interesting side stand
Tony practising to go home
But he didn't practice enough to get out of the car park :? :? :? :?
the moral of the story - watch out for the mud under the grass (if you can.)
:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
It was a pleasure meeting up in Nan with you guys: Tony, Tony, Gerhard, Slash & Moto-Rex. Thanks one & all.
The Nan Country Music & Biker Festival was indeed an extremely pleasant change to the regular noisy bike festivals. Well done Nan! 8) 8)
