To all the bikers who really know
We ( a group of ca five Big Bike bikers (HD & BMWs)) are planning to join the 1. Laos Bike Festival in Vang Vieng on 18./19. November 2017. While we have been with the bikes already several times in Laos and we know our way around, I was wondering how to exit Laos at the Muang Ngern (Hongsa), Laos into Huay Kon (T) border crossing, coming from LP with a group of bikes. As I'm organising the trip, I want to make sure, we can all cross back into Thailand with the bikes with no bigger issues. I understand there had been issues in the past to cross from T to L at that crossing. So I need to know if somebody has recent experience to exit Laos with bikes at that crossing and getting into Thailand. As we are a bigger group, we need a decent certainty that we will face no (known) problems, otherwise, we will take the long way around from Oudomxay via Luang Namtha to the Houayxay - Chiang Khong Friendship Bridge crossing.
Thanks for your answers and suggestions in advance
