    The Samoeng Loop - Post Your Photos here



    A new photo sticky. This one for the Samoeng Loop.

    The Samoeng Loop is the famous 100 kms loop / circumnavigation of Doi Suthep / Pui mountain from Chiang Mai. Everyone does it at least once, if not on a regular basis.

    So let's build up a Samoeng Loop ride photo collection.
    Take a photo of yourself + bike in front of
    1. The Samoeng Police Box T Junction & the GT Rider banner.
    or
    2. The Samoeng viewpoint on R1096.

    Here's one from last August. Lucky I was wearing my GT Rider shirt eh?
    Wasn't much of a view that day but we weren't there for the view. We were sheltering from the rain

    A truly happy rider is one who can enjoy the scenery along a detour.

    Took delivery of my Scrambler today so went for a squirt around the Samoeng loop (too late in the day for anything more adventurous) after Ian Bungy wound up the pre-load on the rear shocks at the XCentre. Always good to have a mechanic on hand!

    We reckon we may have seen you near the Mae Rim tun-off; Myriama on the Sonic, whilst I was just ahead of brother Michael on a 'Poor Man's Harley'. Heading home from a packed Sala Cafe - Klaus, brother of Jergen's great little cafe out that way.

    Few hair cuts ago now... from my first trip up north after discovering GT-Rider and deciding to hire an XR250, after never having ridden a bike with gears before, and doing 'The Loop' plus some other day tours was a good idea...
