Ive got 2 friends who have ridden up from Malaysia and also a lady rider from the Ukraine who's doing a solo 2 year round the world ride on a monster KTM here with us . If they get back in time from a mid week ride up to MHS I'll bring them along

Franco Thai has a reputation for succulent inexpensive steaks & is one of the hidden (for non francophiles) gems of Chiang Mai.

April has raced by and our dinner would normally be this Friday at Franco Thai. David U. is in Australia and I will be in Kohn Kaen. If anyone is free to go to Franco Thai this Friday, can I suggest you post here and agree to get together. If there is no response, we will make a firm date for May dinner at Franco Thai on Friday 30th May, from 7pm.
