GTR Weekend Warriors Dinner # 1 - Sunset @ Takhong, Haad Bai
After a discussion with some of the riders at the GTR Up Country Dinner in Si Satchanalai, it is understood that there maybe a demand for some weekend hook ups for those who work & cannot make the Wednesday GTR dinners.
The masterplan is a GTR Weekend Warriors dinner the 2nd weekend (Saturday) of the month & the regular GTR Up Country dinner on the last Wednesday of the month. So roughly every 2 weeks a GTR dinner event. No organized ride, just meet up at a designated destination for a night out with some biker friends.
Let's see if we can kick the first one off - GTR Weekend Warriors Dinner # 1.
The place: Takhong, the magic sunset place on the Khong, mid way between Chiang Saen & Chiang Khong.
