10th April 2010 and the hot season is well and truly underway. The mercury hit our office at 102 degrees in the shade today and it's expected to get even hotter. Despite all of us here at Motorbike Thailand love riding, tomorrow we are taking a short 300 kilometer trip and not looking forward to it...Riding in this temperature is no fun for anyone hence the reason we never run tours in March and April.

We went on an off road tour with Motorbike Thailand from
the 19th to the 26th of July. As Andy said; "each day
would be more challenging than the last" and he was certainly true to
his word. Every single day was more challenging
culminating in us having lunch with representatives of the Sham army
1500m up a mountain. I have to say the trip was exceptional and i will definitely be back
next year. The bikes and accommodation were both great along with the camaraderie between all the guys. One of the expectational aspects of the
week was that Andy really made an effort to teach, particularly Michel
and I how to ride a bike properly both on and off the road. I will
always take inspiration from his "get you r f**ing feet on the pegs when I am next sliding down a hill of mud on a bike. Cheers guys for a great week! Mark (Hong Kong near the outskirts of Scotland)
