Hi,
Ive read some of the excellent ride reports on the site and need some advice on combining them.
My girlfriend and I are on a 9 month trip by bicycle and occasional petrol power.
My brother who works in oz and best mate from home are joining us for 6 days moto fun out of chiang mai.
Experts are going to hire crfs and two dirt novices will hire xr 250s or 125cc manual bikes
We like the look of the following plans in order of preference
1 head south to do inthathon and mae saering using roads and dirt tracks. 2 days
Cross up by dirt ne then back onto road to get to mhs 2 days
Then pai and home 2 days
good countryside first
might be too muchilage for novices - maybe send them north on road and regroup evenings north of mae saering
2 head to pai first by road then dirt later down south
More relaxed
novices get time on road first
pai nice spot to wind down trip
3 use samoeng elephant trail to get to mhs then pai
Supposed to be beautiful trail
-hard to get dirt in after pai without backtracking
