When I searched for Dirtbike adventure tours in Thailand, I released it needed to be MX bike adventure in Kanchanaburi, but having established an off road motorbike adventure tour company in Pattaya,
I realized there where no other combinations of searches to find who the players where,
Haven ridden everything there is to on thailands’ southeastern corner, I’ve returned to Kanchanaburi, because other people tell me adventure stories of the north, cambodia, Loas and vietnam, motorcycling offroad anywhere is sanook for me
join the party, or just read about it, I know which I like

"Thai Raid"
Dakar, Erberg, roof of Africa or ISDE it is not, but for pure riding, an insight in extreme competition and more importantly challenge yourself with all the safety procedures in place at a price you'll like.
The "Rally of Thailand" which will be held between 16th-21st November 2010
In accordance with F.I.M. Enduro Regs( 062 ), as well as Supplementary Regulations ( SR ) written in this document.
Entry classes ; 1. Solo competitors 2. Rally raiders 3. Thai resident/ Tourist ( own bike)
These rules apply to Solo competitors, but act as a guide line for Rally raiders, the logic is for non- competition riders to enjoy a low cost & risk adventure rally.
The event will be ridden on public roads and private properties in Thailand,
where civil and motoring law will be enforced.
If in doubt, common sense should be used.
The route consists of a prolog in Pattaya Chon Buri province and five days ridden on unsealed roads as liaison stages( between Special Stages optional of raiders ) will only have limited marking, but has been designed for an average speed of 30 kms/hr. It is stated explicitly that failure to observe Rally rules, common sense, good conduct and motoring laws, participants will find themselves in trouble & seriously out of pocket.
Solo competitors can expect to ride up to 270 kms/day, in up to 9 hours per day. Due to topography features, the use of your survival equipment, response time and delivery to Hospitals are all minimal.
At present it is expected all participants (except thai resident/tourist) will use a road legal and insured ( against 3 rd party claims) Kawasaki KLX 250 i. Personal accident/ injury insurance must be taken out by competitors. This can be done prior to the rally in Thailand, but consideration of your own needs and repatriation should be considered.
The organizers will supply ; drinking water at all possible places, sweepers and rescue teams at fixed locations, emergence procedure and contact numbers.
Entry cost ; Detail of inclusive/ non inclusive and terms & conditions and deposit visit www.a-tecracing.com
SR; license, personal insurance, motorbike hire deposit all extra
Complete check list, additional forms issued with entry forms
Based on present situation
7 nights accommodation, 6 days bike hire & riding
Solo competitor - 50,000 baht ( @ £0.053/ 1 baht = £ 943 )
Rally raider - 40,000 baht ( £ 755 )
Thai resident/ Tourist ( own bike) - 5,000 baht ( £ 95 )

Once again flying out of the grey late autumn skies of UK, to what has become my 2nd home in Thailand. Chilling out ( in economy ) and contemplating what order I was going to get through the long list of people, places and tasks I had in mind to do.
The answer was quite simple, do only what I had already agreed to do and rest will follow.
Happy ? you've better believe it,
I have 3 clear motives out here, enjoy myself, enjoy myself and well enjoy myself.
Seriously one is always to enjoy what you do, second is to engage with decent people, whether that's in trail riding, the expat business community or just plain seating around and talking. This unfortunately also includes my office work, communicating the pleasure of trail riding with like minded people is the only marketing tool I intend using, Time and again both customers ( who then generally up grade to friends and the growing number who then join with our expat trail riding community, tell me " how difficult it was to track down our growing group. With the single objective of sharing the offroad experiences we have.
I've shown the real cost of "full on" m/c off road tours on a daily basis or on a 9 day tour. By joining a tour with customer already confirmed, as an individual or couple, you can choose the days you what to ride
on my WR250 I took an opportunity to explore new tracks and complete my research for Kanchanaburi, Burmese boarder and Phetchabun, Laos boarder tours.
The first stage involved meeting up with friends 70 kms north of Kanchanaburi. We had the option of staying at Pung Waan resort situated on the banks of river Kwai which is spacious with excellent facilities or the Guest house owned by Neil & Emma, with thai staff who have 12 years experience of looking after Western tourists is a great base for a group.
We passed on the death valley and Bridge experience, although this would be a must from any first time visitor. After riding 2 day loops on different terrain, we headed north carrying our overnight gear in a rucksack staying at Sangkhlaburi which is a crossing point to Burma with U.N.refugee camps and small Bamboo villages of Burmese who prefer to be selfsufficient and behold to no one. An overnight stop here, then with Pipette our Thai guide on a TTR lead us through Thung Yai national park where the Ranger would not let us travel alone as we are so close to boarder, my GPS showed we where in Burma. 150 kms of dirt track lead us back on to Tarmac and a night stop at Um Phang.
I parted company with my first group and headed on to Phetchabun where a couple of mates, one who lives 30 kms north of Phetchabun with knowledge of all the excellent tracks that lead 1600 metres altitude in the mountains overlooking Loas. thanks to John who had driven up from Pattaya with his XR650 on his pick up , I was able to cut the last 600kms back down to Pattaya.
Although everyday can throw up different challenges, by carrying the right tools and spares, you will always be able to resolve problems with helpful and friendly Thai nationals. This is certainly great riding anytime of years
