The GTR Dinner @ CSL Restaurant in Si Satchanalai February 2020.

What a mega night - meal & group.
21 people made it to little ol Sisatchanalai & filled the CSL Restaurant for the night.
We were a bit nervous about having this dinner in a small shophouse, but incredibly everything went down well
1. Cold Beer
2. Service
3. The Food. What a bonanza of a feast the fabulous Suwat turned on for GTR. Way more food than we could eat even. It was truly astounding what came out of the little kitchen at the back of the shophouse!

Some pics

Suwat knew how win a few hearts with some GTR bread straight off

and then came the snacks

Time to start tucking in

Tim & Vero were the heroes of the night as it was they who had tipped GTR off about a GTR dinner in Sisatchanalai @ the CSL

A post dinner group shot

Some kanom

A big thanks to Brian, Steve & James who came down from Chiang Rai for the dinner.

Brian has Chiang Rai Big Bike Rental & Steve looks after the lithium batteries & CR UTV Tours Chiang Rai UTV & Adventure Tours

A supremely happy GTR with Mr & Mrs Suwat, the CSL mega-stars of the night.

Many many thanks Suwat for an amazing dinner & happy jovial night.
Thanks to everyone who came, & especially Dave Carrell who is in a battle with the big C. We wish you all the best Dave - keep the power on mate.

The next day most guys made it for breakfast & were not disappointed again @ 89 baht!

After which everyone went on their own way home.
Some stayed on to check out the Sukhothai ruins.
Some went to Chiang Rai via Nan & R1091.
Some went home via R1 & R11
Some went back up R101 & R11.
The way to go, everyone sets their own pace & route to enjoy a nice ride out as they please.
Bring on the next GTR dinner

Many thanks Tim & Vero for the tip off
Many many thanks Suwat & the CSL Restaurant in Sisatchanali.

Another Fantastic Event! Top Job! Looking forward to the Next one already Ha Ha!

You and 21 other people hehehe
For me it was a great allround event.

The hard bit is trying to make the next one better ?

Which IMO is going to be near on impossible.
Well done Dave and all the other guys who made this happen.
