Marco,
Yes it will be Route 2. Myself and KHUNDAN are planning to get to and meet in Korat on Thursday 5th. Feb, then riding up R2 to Khon Kaen and Udon Thani on Friday 6th. Feb.
KHUNDAN and me are just waiting to see if anyone else is going so we can confirm the arrangements.
Hoping to get a couple each from BKK and Eastern.
Likewise we can not firm up hotels until we know the numbers.

I mewt somebody from Surin, darned if I remember who it was. I know Dan has got a second place up there but it wasn't him. I will at some point head up that way, check out the infamous Cambo Thai market and the Khmer ruins in the area.

Everyone going to Udon, best of luck and be safe.
I went up there new years eve, left at 2 in the afternoon and got there 8.30 and that was with horrendous traffic jams,I reckon you should get there just under 5 hours .....If you are going to go all that way might I suggest that you go the extra 50 klicks and go to Nongkhai to see the Mekong

I really thought the food was great in the Irish clock and I know some of you guys are staying there but what have you worked out about parking/security for your bikes?

Cool new owner named Eddie , I went to Udon to see this place I heard it was owned by a fellow Irishman and Harley rider,but he'd already sold it to an American (Eddie)the current owner, good guy I was up til 8am on new years day!

Great Guys be good to see some of you. I donlt know how mnay people could get away wih it. But Friend came up one weekend and Steve at the Irish clock let him put his bike inside a night. ask thre have been a few problems in the area. Nothing about stealing bikes that I know of.
Being a creature of habit never been Otooles but I hear good things about it
Eight guys for the Naga (Chon Buri) are coming up as well I understand they are going through Nong Khia on the way back.
Look you have problems call me 086-229-8884.
I will probably be on the ride Saturday morning. But I've seen the area if I need to cut it short no big deal.
Watch your speeds about 30 Klm out of Korat and your lane position. location the Highway coppers have set up in the past. Generally they don't mess with bikers much.
Ride is Saturday 0815 a good time to be ther scheduled to pull out 0830, at Nam Prjak park. Steve will have copies of the Udon Map free got about all you need about Udon in it.
I will be at the part with our ride list guys gives me a call might as well hook up.
Be great to meet you guys.
I hear it's better then the first one, the first one was a lot of fun. The party itself will be across the street from the park.
see yuo Saturday.
