This is not good. You can hear the distress of the people. NaGwien temple on the Irawaddy.

Nice Topic!

I have a few pictures taken in Thailand ... but most of them are not motorbike related.

Would you ban me if I posted them here?

I don't like Thaivisa.com


Will stick to guidance

What about pictures not related to motorbikes, but from Thailand?

If it's related to what you see & do riding your bike around it is ok, but if you need to worry about about it & have to ask, then it's better not to clutter up the forum = dont. Stick to the bike stuff.

I understand that my question seems suspicious, but I only asked because I wanted to be correct and because I know that I don't always understand what actually is correct in a certain new environment without guidance. I've not been on this forum for long and I don't know any of you guy personally yet.

I've seen lots of pictures with T-shirts which made clear reference to sexual stuff and pictures of things not directly related to motorbiking. Then I tried to pots a very funny picture I took in Krabi (similar in style to some posted here) to see what happens .... and got scolded.

Anyhow, the reason for following this forum is to get hold of useful information on motorbiking in Thailand.

Cheers

R1249 the Doi Ang Khang road.

Bangkok riders having trouble cornering going up the switch backs.

Several corners further down there was another rider from the same group who had the same problem. Experience is lacking.

Work stool for petrol heads.
The picture below is the upscale model for those with sensitive arses!
It has a brake disk as cushion instead of the usual sprocket cushion.

The town of Thoeng is situated at the junction of R1020 & R1021.
You could be forgiven for trying to locate the town perhaps with some of the city name spelling.

Well, actually there is no "right" spelling in English. The only correct spelling is in Thai script. There have never been any set rules for transliterating Thai into English.
So, whoever makes a sign in English can write it however they like. Personally, I like "Terng".

I seem to recall a "Terng" sign somewhere, but haven't been able to spot it again on my recent travels.
Any clues?
