Another great video. Have a look at the Honda CT125, they are the true adventure bikes in Thailand. You don’t need a petrol station as lots of small shops sell petrol in bottles by the litre, ask for “nam man” and they will either have it or point you in the right direction. If you think the food might be spicy ask for “Mai Pet” which means not spicy. Normally a Thai farm worker will earn between 300 to 400 baht a day.
Rich your face is so funny when Ewa talking about the food and when it arrives on the table, love the drone back up and running. The roads put our roads to shame in the U.K., omg I would of freaked at that snake alive or dead.
Some days we are so hungry at the end of a ride or long day, those are the days you can be sure to find very little for food options, always a challenge. We Do miss our Tent and Trangia some days! Camping Season will be back soon!
Rich…..your face is a real picture when you’re about to try the local “delicacies”. It reminds me of the Mona Lisa! Another great episode today! Some great roads and lovely scenery….especially towards the rear of the coffee shop! It looked like rice paddy fields? Keep up the good work! Really enjoying sharing your travels! Lovely to see a part of the World I’ve not been to! Especially nice to see that people with relatively little can be so happy and genuinely glad to meet foreigners! Perhaps it’s something we in the U.K. could learn from! ❤️❤️
Theres so much in terms of attitude and indeed healthy living we could learn from in the uk, The Thais are amazing happy people.... Perhaps in return we can show them Cottage pie or Sunday roast?
@@ontheroadadventureThink about it this way. You grew up eating your food and became accustomed to the flavours you like…same Thai people. Some like western food but most would find it all very bland.
oh man...i do like your wife bro. she is so easy when it comes to food hahahah... and she enjoy everything she does on her journey. don't get me wrong...I love you too bro. thnx for all your footage on RUclips. I have learned a lot from your motorcycles trips. greets..
Thanks so much, we feel very lucky to have each other and to love to travel by motorbike together, we each have strengths and weaknesses but I think we make a solid team 👍 I’m glad we can help and hopefully inspire you to travel in the same way
Hi guys, another cracking vlog. Loving the "shit on a stick" food quote! The roads getting very interesting too and Scooters are bikes! Keep it up.....Andy & Lyn.
It can't get any better, what a delightful country to ride in. Once again Rich, your expressions when the oriental food is put before you, is a treat to behold. Eva keep an eye on him and watch what he is eating.. Great stuff guys.😅👍🏍
I am also so very proud of Rich trying new things. He looks happier the longer you guys stay there. He is already so attached to that 80kph scooter 😊, trying to race on the twisties 😂.
Say guys, did you know that the Thai kitchen also can provide you with Vegetarian food, I mean most Asian countries have a lot of Veggie food to begin with, and usually meat can be added later on, or fish if you desire that. So if you do not want to take a risk of getting sick due to odd meat, or unwell cooked meat or meat your stomach can't handle; like bat-meat you usually can ask for the Veggie option. The food is usually so tastefully that you wouldn't even miss the meat, since meat on itself barely has got any taste...
Great video guys, Eva looking beautiful 🤩 I’m proud of you Rich for taking a pun at the not so exciting looking grub, & Eva always goes for it 😅I’m amazed those scooters are still going strong, just proves what you said Rich, looking forward to the next journey sleep well guys, night 💤
Another great ride. That is the only disadvantage to the scooter is the range on a tank full of gas. I like my CBR, 'cause we can go from Chiang Mai up to Mae Sai (Burma Border) & still have a 1/4 tank left. If you are getting low on fuel, even the smallest village will have little stores that have bottles of gas for sale out in front. Yes, the scenery & roads will just keep on getting better. Thailand, no place like it.
We assumed they will have good range because they use so little fuel but the tanks must be small too. No drama though, four hours on these and we are done for the day anyway
Guys, great video as always. Let me give you some options Small bikes and Big bikes Mopeds, Scooters, Bikes and Big Bikes Bikes and Big Bikes. (This last one is my favorite). Each to there own but I like to start at 7 and ride until lunch. It is much cooler in the morning and there is less traffic. Also, if something goes wrong, you are not left struggling in the dark. My go to position, with the food is, if in doubt ask for chicken fried rice. (Cow Pat Guy. That is my bad phonetic spelling) Finally, as I may have mentioned, motor camping on an old Vespa around the world is still my old man’s dream. If I was half my age with much better health, I would not be here writing this. Keep up the good work.
Thanks, we too prefer the Big bikes, We miss our Adventure bikes and will be back on them soon. WE love moto camping and touring in that way, we will be back off on our of our epic camping tours soon we hope... Did you follow our tours in Spain and Portugal for example?
@@ontheroadadventure I hope that it is okay to mention this but you may find a Thai youtube channel interesting... La Vang Tang. He is the nicest guy and he has some great motor camping adventures. I hope it's okay to mention "the competition"
Another great video. In the nine times that I’ve been to Thailand, me and my wife only got food poisoning once, which was from a restaurant. We think it was the fried fish as we both had. My daughter was fine as she didn’t have any. Eaten loads of street food without any issues.
So nice those coffee bars in the middle of nowhere, The view was amazing. Hahaha Ewa I think he can be a happy man in Thailand opening his own restaurant and shop 😊 But Rich I am also proud of you eating the local food, can imagine it's hard when you're so used to European regulations it's scary. See you on the next one
I love watching your channel you are both great. I have a wife and a house in Thailand, but sadly I'm unable to live there at the moment. My passion is motorbikes. But I just can't get on with riding a scooter, they feel so unsafe. I admire your determination to ride whatever you can to get where ever you want to go. Power to you both. Enjoy 😊
Hope you can get to be with your wife soon. Yes the Scooters feel lethal, its the small wheels that are the real issue for stability. Try something like Honda wave or CT125 with the bigger wheels
Hi Rich & Ewa, Wow, great episode! - through the twisties with the odd moment in the corners, classic, reminds me of long ago days on my Lambretta in the late 60's. Rich, your eating is getting more adventurous, you'll be down the Thai take away in Exeter when you return........if you return, this adventure is a brilliant advert for Thailand for those of us who've never been. Keep going guys, doing what you do - take care & ride safe. SteveD (Isle of Wight)
The small towns you ride through remind me of Clacton on sea Essex, Rich, you might get lucky and find a fish and chip shop. still loving the videos. Many thanks.
The noodle cart is from Chai Si franchise which you can find practically in any town in Thailand. There are thousands of them in Thailand. There are more than 500 such carts in Bangkok alone. The price is about $1.20. It is a quick meal for most Thais.
Ahh this explains why we so often see the same food carts repeated, they all seem to sell the same things here. Even the shops at tourist spots all sell the same stuff 🤷♂️
The green curries and Massaman curries (South Thailand) are amazing, although the green curry can be spicy. They cone in pork, chicken and sometimes beef. In those rural areas, keep an eye out for petro at small stores. They will sell it in liter soda, beer or oil (clear bottles) for quick use...when no fuel starions are near.
@ In Manila Airport. Travelling back to UK. Philippines very similar to Thailand for beautiful countryside and better roads than the UK. Will be back here after Christmas
I think we can do better in the uk, We have become left behind in some respects. It's important we dont make excuses and notice when theres a problem so we as a country can address it and make it better dont you think?
Egg noodles on your food lovely dish not spicy very popular in the North, buy yourself some goodies for the ride round the loop gets a little sparce for shops.
Great video ,googled the shoe thing, sorry to bore you !...mostly applies to countries that have traditionally used floors to sit on while doing the typical household activities.,cooking as an example. Interestingly studies have shown we can bring in heavy metals and other toxic stuff on our shoes. My cat ignores all of this 😸.🏍👍
Great video as always! I think Eva had it near Bangkok, but must try the Khao Soi Gai (Chicken much better than beef - best if you get with whole chicken legs-) in Chiang Mai. Very famous Northern Thailand dish and one of my, and many others favorites.
“Shit on a stick” That cracked me up! 😂 I obviously don’t know if you are still in Thailand or already home? But when I’ve been there with friends that are fussy eaters, you can’t go far wrong ordering noodles with chicken, ask for Pad Thai Guy. Guy or Ki (spelt) is Thai for chicken. Also, add to your vocabulary, thank you in Thai is, Car poon cup. 👍 Food seems an ongoing theme and issue for Richie, whatever country you visit! 😂 I strongly suggest you do more research on local foods before you embark on future adventures abroad. Regards, Dazza. 🇬🇧
Hi Dazza, yes we are in thailand, the videos you watch are only a couple days behind real time. Yeah we know and expected the food situation, its part of the travelling isnt it... Its also entertainment...
@ - That’s great, when do you guys fly home? I’m flying into Bangkok on the ninth of January for a two month stay. It would be awesome if I bumped in to you. 🤣👍
_Barbecue meat on a stick_ is probably Satay (I'd need to see a photo). If it is satay it is either beef or chicken marinaded and served with a peanut sauce. Anchor Butter contains milk from cows fed with Bovaer (a quick read of the health and safety sheet puts me right off!). I'd give it a miss (Lurpack as well), use good old local farm butter. Wait till you get the _logging lorries_ 😱The drivers are usually on Uppers, haven't slept for days, and take the corners as fast as possible as the more deliveries they make the more they earn.
SO interesting to watch your videos ,you guys are making really great job of your videos, interesting and a lot of fun loving it, take care on the corners with them piddly wheels.,luckily you seem to have better roads than here in Cornwall 😮
If only it were that easy. We think that the local dialects mean that the translate isnt very accurate, its often not understood. it will get you through basic situations though
@ontheroadadventure agreed but i think the marketing of 1200cc bikes for off road adventure are over ive had a couple and they are heavy when you drop them
@@ontheroadadventure im old school, you can have adventure on any bike and you two are proving that, if you had been on your Africa twins, you would not have done half the things youve done on them little twist ang go's Rich is propper bonding with his lol
the thing is about the shoes sometime may be cleaning that's a little thing the local worry about there spiritual thing in there place and I understand how hard to take off and put them back, so I know you can deal with this by your way, have fun in THAILAND guys.
dear rich & ewa There are no subtitles available with this last upload. Did something go wrong? Furthermore, another great video that regularly makes me chuckle. love you ,bye!
Nice seeing rich trying new food, the places what ypur staying in remind me of the cornwall council homeless pods lol. Looking forward to tomorrows video. Ride safe
@ontheroadadventure don't get me wrong, for the price your paying, and the weather you have , I would definitely be staying in there too, I'd even sleep on the floor with no tv or furniture lol
Bike or scooter the only difference is the wheel size and the rubber band powering the scooter only joking the freedom is what it's all about thay both get you were you want to go too
On a note in Denmark you allways take your shoes of when entering a privat home - it is just considered normal courtesy ❤ Keep up the good work of trying new dishes 🤣🥰
@@ontheroadadventure Wide beaches you can drive on - beautiful nature hills, lakes and mores - TET tracks ,but you can make your own if you wish Lovely curvy small road . Free camping areas and shelters that make the trip a bit more affordable. ❤ And yes we have French hot dogs, hotdogs - grill foods, cakes, ice cream and seafood 😂 So - a Treat is waiting for you in Denmark 🌞💕
benzine krab,,, kow ha krab petrol please, 95 octane ja pai nai,, where you going. tip, you may want to do an oil change as your doing high miles, its cheap, about 120 baht to do, good to check the bikes. Keep up the fun
Thats me and the Mrs back in Thailand today, just come from Scotland BTW the roads in NE Thailand are relatively poor compared to your current experience I have a bunch of bikes at my house in Khon Kaen, but recently sold my CBR650R, it was horrible and too peaky on the Thai roads. Im a bit ruined as in Scotland i have 1290 Superduke GT & Tuono V4 1100 Factory Think before end of this year for here in Thailand i will buy a Honda Forza 350 or Yamaha S Max for kicking around Thailand on I have the Honda PCX 160 but find it a bit soft as well as Mrs having smaller stuff like you are on now If you make it to Khon Kaen give me a shout, happy to show u village life 😊
I think the Honda forza is a perfect middle ground for here, a good mix of power and comfort. I bet it’s cold in Scotland right now! Do you ride all year there?
(30:24) your pound, gets more than my dollar, over there. EU 1-45.78 US 1-35.47, so, vacationing, makes more cents, also in Brazil, my dollar, is about the same.
That must be a struggle for them. no wonder they are all so grateful for tips etc. We almost always pay more for services etc here, its the right thing to do
The thai girls cover up as they dont want to tan and the rest probably cant afford sun cream and or covering up is better ... great commentary as usual
Tell you what Rich don't go planning a ride around India mate, if you think that foods bad, Open wide and just shove it in there's always Imodium, Eva is having a field day HaHa
''You don't see that every day'' Lol. Crack of the trip, yeah you do actually, can't believe you ain't seen 'em before, they literally are everywhere 😂

Rich your face is a treat every time you eat something. Brilliant both of you keep it up.
Thanks Steve...
Amazing drone footage and another great day on the road!! 👍👍
Cheers bud, those forests as so vast!
The Endless entertainment and laughs you two give is just priceless! Thank you, really enjoying your Thailand Trip
Glad you enjoyed it, This is what life and travel is all about, simply having fun.
Another great video, and you make me smile, and I thank you for that 😂 keep up the good work.
You are so welcome! We love this

Keep going Rich. Youll be feasting on a tikka masala before you know it 😜 Eva fabulous as always. 😊
Cant wait to find that stall!
Well done Rich. Proud of you for eating that meal. Enjoying the series
Thanks Paul.... When we get hungry enough we will try anything!
Great vlog yet again.. Rich face is a look of horror every time a Thai dish is put in front of him.. Brilliant
Disappointed time and time again lol
Rich your face is so funny when Ewa talking about the food and when it arrives on the table, love the drone back up and running. The roads put our roads to shame in the U.K., omg I would of freaked at that snake alive or dead.
Some days we are so hungry at the end of a ride or long day, those are the days you can be sure to find very little for food options, always a challenge. We Do miss our Tent and Trangia some days! Camping Season will be back soon!
I expect the On the Road Adventure cookbook to be out by Xmas.
Culinary delights!
Ride safe 👍
We have some right food treat ideas for the camping season...
Thanks for another great video. I've come to look forward to seeing you two every day after work.
Thanks for watching! We love sharing our videos with you
Rich…..your face is a real picture when you’re about to try the local “delicacies”. It reminds me of the Mona Lisa!
Another great episode today! Some great roads and lovely scenery….especially towards the rear of the coffee shop! It looked like rice paddy fields?
Keep up the good work! Really enjoying sharing your travels! Lovely to see a part of the World I’ve not been to! Especially nice to see that people with relatively little can be so happy and genuinely glad to meet foreigners! Perhaps it’s something we in the U.K. could learn from!
❤️❤️
Yeah…..”chewing a wasp” 😂😂😂😂
Theres so much in terms of attitude and indeed healthy living we could learn from in the uk, The Thais are amazing happy people.... Perhaps in return we can show them Cottage pie or Sunday roast?
Luverrly!
@@ontheroadadventureThink about it this way. You grew up eating your food and became accustomed to the flavours you like…same Thai people. Some like western food but most would find it all very bland.
Ewa's Family in Poland all think English food is very bland and plain
Another amazing video you two, it’s the highlight of my days watching you, always makes me laugh ❤ Love you bye 🙋♂️
Ohh so good to hear! We love that we can put smiles on faces
Love seeing drone shots. Beautiful country.
Isnt it amazing, the birds and animals, we live for these moments on the road
oh man...i do like your wife bro. she is so easy when it comes to food hahahah... and she enjoy everything she does on her journey. don't get me wrong...I love you too bro. thnx for all your footage on RUclips. I have learned a lot from your motorcycles trips. greets..
Thanks so much, we feel very lucky to have each other and to love to travel by motorbike together, we each have strengths and weaknesses but I think we make a solid team 👍 I’m glad we can help and hopefully inspire you to travel in the same way
I think rich is a lot like me. Egg and chips guy. Or a good steak pie. Happy days. Great video. Take care as always. 🙏👍👍👍👍
Yep, simple honest grub for me 😂
The twistys looked great! Also great to see you trying new foods. Have a great time on the loop
Thanks, yes the roads are getting really good here now! Very enjoyable days riding, even on these silly little scooters....
"It looks good once it's in the bowl"😂
What the eye doesn’t see the heart doesn’t grieve over
Another great video guys . Been a Devon lad you should try the Tarka curry it’s a lot like a tikka just a little otter
see what you did there...
Hi guys, another cracking vlog. Loving the "shit on a stick" food quote! The roads getting very interesting too and Scooters are bikes! Keep it up.....Andy & Lyn.
Hey guys, hope your well. Food was a bit rough today, but the riding is getting better and better as we go north! Time for the Mae hong son!
It can't get any better, what a delightful country to ride in. Once again Rich, your expressions when the oriental food is put before you, is a treat to behold. Eva keep an eye on him and watch what he is eating.. Great stuff guys.😅👍🏍
Thanks John, we think we have a way to make this tour even better!! Stay tuned, we have something cool planned!
I am also so very proud of Rich trying new things. He looks happier the longer you guys stay there. He is already so attached to that 80kph scooter 😊, trying to race on the twisties 😂.
haha Got to get your fun where you can!
Say guys, did you know that the Thai kitchen also can provide you with Vegetarian food, I mean most Asian countries have a lot of Veggie food to begin with, and usually meat can be added later on, or fish if you desire that. So if you do not want to take a risk of getting sick due to odd meat, or unwell cooked meat or meat your stomach can't handle; like bat-meat you usually can ask for the Veggie option.
The food is usually so tastefully that you wouldn't even miss the meat, since meat on itself barely has got any taste...
Yes we have also found many good vegan restaurants here, they are great with herbs and spices so it’s always tasty!!
You 2 crack me up...🤣also nice to see yr subs increasing 👏
Thanks so much, yes they are going up now...
Great video guys, Eva looking beautiful 🤩 I’m proud of you Rich for taking a pun at the not so exciting looking grub, & Eva always goes for it 😅I’m amazed those scooters are still going strong, just proves what you said Rich, looking forward to the next journey sleep well guys, night 💤
Cheers Andy, yeah we have faith in the scooters, they will get the job done for us im sure of it!
Another great ride. That is the only disadvantage to the scooter is the range on a tank full of gas. I like my CBR, 'cause we can go from Chiang Mai up to Mae Sai (Burma Border) & still have a 1/4 tank left. If you are getting low on fuel, even the smallest village will have little stores that have bottles of gas for sale out in front. Yes, the scenery & roads will just keep on getting better.

Bit of grated Pilgrims Choice !! Brilliant !
and a nice crusty rolll!! Heaven!
I met one of those trucks coming at me on my side of the road on a corner from Pie to Chiang Mai. It was a pucker moment. Keeps you alert!
Yes, been there. A real E ticket ride!!!
Gotta watch yourself here mate
Careful as you go here!
Guys, great video as always. Let me give you some options
Small bikes and Big bikes
Mopeds, Scooters, Bikes and Big Bikes
Bikes and Big Bikes. (This last one is my favorite).
Each to there own but I like to start at 7 and ride until lunch. It is much cooler in the morning and there is less traffic. Also, if something goes wrong, you are not left struggling in the dark.
My go to position, with the food is, if in doubt ask for chicken fried rice. (Cow Pat Guy. That is my bad phonetic spelling)

Keep up the good work.
Thanks, we too prefer the Big bikes, We miss our Adventure bikes and will be back on them soon. WE love moto camping and touring in that way, we will be back off on our of our epic camping tours soon we hope... Did you follow our tours in Spain and Portugal for example?
@@ontheroadadventure I hope that it is okay to mention this but you may find a Thai youtube channel interesting... La Vang Tang. He is the nicest guy and he has some great motor camping adventures. I hope it's okay to mention "the competition"
Absolutely it’s fine, we spend all our down time watching other RUclipsrs too! We will check him out, he is brave if he is camping in Thailand!
Also...check the oil in your scooters..... Might need a top up by now.
Yep will do cheers
Another great video. In the nine times that I’ve been to Thailand, me and my wife only got food poisoning once, which was from a restaurant. We think it was the fried fish as we both had. My daughter was fine as she didn’t have any. Eaten loads of street food without any issues.
Those are good odds 👍
That was a stunning looking coffee shop you visited, and rice fish and vegetables you can't go wrong
Such a beautiful place that was, we could have sat there for the whole day looking at the rice fields and birds
So nice those coffee bars in the middle of nowhere, The view was amazing.
Hahaha Ewa I think he can be a happy man in Thailand opening his own restaurant and shop 😊
But Rich I am also proud of you eating the local food, can imagine it's hard when you're so used to European regulations it's scary.
See you on the next one
It is defo a culture shock, even after a few weeks here! Yes Rich needs his own Jacket potato shop to open
I love watching your channel you are both great. I have a wife and a house in Thailand, but sadly I'm unable to live there at the moment. My passion is motorbikes. But I just can't get on with riding a scooter, they feel so unsafe. I admire your determination to ride whatever you can to get where ever you want to go.
Power to you both. Enjoy 😊
Hope you can get to be with your wife soon. Yes the Scooters feel lethal, its the small wheels that are the real issue for stability. Try something like Honda wave or CT125 with the bigger wheels
@ontheroadadventure Thanks I have only ridden a 125cc scooby scooter, so far.Take care
Some amazing scenery there guys 👍
Isn’t it just, like nothing we have seen before. Such a cool environment to ride in, we love it 😊
Yep , Mopeds around 50cc scooters up to 250 above that maxi scooters. Great job you both are doing Really enjoyin it.
Thanks bud, the little scooters are getting us through, although we cant wait to get our real bikes back!
Hi Rich & Ewa,
Wow, great episode! - through the twisties with the odd moment in the corners, classic, reminds me of long ago days on my Lambretta in the late 60's.
Rich, your eating is getting more adventurous, you'll be down the Thai take away in Exeter when you return........if you return, this adventure is a brilliant advert for Thailand for those of us who've never been.
Keep going guys, doing what you do - take care & ride safe.
SteveD (Isle of Wight)
Thanks so much, we will return… we need to pick up our babies for the next tour 😉
Trust you're doing The Loop clockwise. You'll love it, a bikers dream come true.
Cheers, start of it in the next one..
The small towns you ride through remind me of Clacton on sea Essex, Rich, you might get lucky and find a fish and chip shop. still loving the videos. Many thanks.
We are keeping our eye out for one mate
Awesome video twisty roads very nice beautiful views thank you for sharing
Cheers Ron, beautiful place isnt it

Interesting and informative, thankyou both
always welcome bud, thanks for joining us on the ride
I'm very cautious about what I eat abroad so I'm with you Rich and excellent British understatement.
Yes it can be hard here at times, we really dont want to get sick too often as it costs us days...
The green curries and Massaman curries (South Thailand) are amazing, although the green curry can be spicy. They cone in pork, chicken and sometimes beef.
In those rural areas, keep an eye out for petro at small stores. They will sell it in liter soda, beer or oil (clear bottles) for quick use...when no fuel starions are near.
Yes some curries are great here, the Thai people know how to use spices!
Well done Rich, for eating all your meal 🥇
Not a bad one to start the day..
What a great time you two are having. Me too, watching your adventures.
Thanks so much for being with us, we love so much to share the videos and chat to you about it here
@ In Manila Airport. Travelling back to UK. Philippines very similar to Thailand for beautiful countryside and better roads than the UK. Will be back here after Christmas
Will be a shock when you get back to uk weather!
Must say those scooters are going well 👍🏼 I’m with the other comments Rich!! You’re face when trying the food cracks me up big time 😂😂😂
The old Scooters are surprising everyone! The food not so much, its as expected lol
With that said, I love your journey and would liked to company you 👍
Great to have you with us
Guys you constantly go on about the roads remember the temperature creates the problem in the uk and also there’s no traffic
I think we can do better in the uk, We have become left behind in some respects. It's important we dont make excuses and notice when theres a problem so we as a country can address it and make it better dont you think?
Amazing Drone shots at that cafe 👌
Glad you liked it!
Egg noodles on your food lovely dish not spicy very popular in the North, buy yourself some goodies for the ride round the loop gets a little sparce for shops.
Cheers, we will remember to stop for snacks

Interestingly studies have shown we can bring in heavy metals and other toxic stuff on our shoes. My cat ignores all of this 😸.🏍👍
Ahh makes sense, I think the Thai people even sleep in the floor here, which is why the beds are so hard!
Great video as always! I think Eva had it near Bangkok, but must try the Khao Soi Gai (Chicken much better than beef - best if you get with whole chicken legs-) in Chiang Mai. Very famous Northern Thailand dish and one of my, and many others favorites.
I think we have had that one, not bad at all if not too spicy
Hi Eva n Rich.as they say the look on ya face trying differant foods😱 😂😂.that noodle jobs look nice.stay safe guys until the nxt 👏👏👍
Thank you! You too!
“Shit on a stick” That cracked me up! 😂
I obviously don’t know if you are still in Thailand or already home?
But when I’ve been there with friends that are fussy eaters, you can’t go far wrong ordering noodles with chicken, ask for Pad Thai Guy. Guy or Ki (spelt) is Thai for chicken.

We have no idea, planning is not our strong point, we just go where the wind takes us
Been very interesting tour,may have to put it on the list. 😎🏍💨💨💨💨💨👍🏻🇨🇦🍻
You should! We have so much more to show you here too!
Hey guys, ye to take your shoes off is a mark of respect but it also a point of not leaving negativity behind, plus what you said about dirt👋🤠👍
Its funny at first walking around shops etc in your bare feet! Easy when in Crocs but not the bike boots so we try to stay outside if we can
Fuel...lots of shops up there have old glass oil bottles with fuel in them. Keep your eyes peeled...
We have found some interesting village stations recently in the north
_Barbecue meat on a stick_ is probably Satay (I'd need to see a photo). If it is satay it is either beef or chicken marinaded and served with a peanut sauce.
Anchor Butter contains milk from cows fed with Bovaer (a quick read of the health and safety sheet puts me right off!). I'd give it a miss (Lurpack as well), use good old local farm butter.
Wait till you get the _logging lorries_ 😱The drivers are usually on Uppers, haven't slept for days, and take the corners as fast as possible as the more deliveries they make the more they earn.
Some of the drivers are Crazy here but most are pretty chilled
Anchor butter.....😂😂
Proper that is!
SO interesting to watch your videos ,you guys are making really great job of your videos, interesting and a lot of fun loving it, take care on the corners with them piddly wheels.,luckily you seem to have better roads than here in Cornwall 😮
Cheers Chris, Yes the uk really needs to sort the roads out and stop making excuses, its the worse we have ridden anywhere
(00:25) wow, like the Eye liner, Awe
Thanks
(30:30) I would write down, what you want to eat, translate it, and show the vendors, what you would like to eat. this way there is no guess work.
If only it were that easy. We think that the local dialects mean that the translate isnt very accurate, its often not understood. it will get you through basic situations though
I have friends that live in the Philippines and they earn an average of about £4-5 per day .
Wow that doesnt seem enough, even living here
@ think it’s slightly more expensive in Thailand than the Philippines by what they tell me. Maybe that’s the next adventure for you to compare 🤔😁
Who knows whats to come
I think people are realising that the proper adventure bike are max 750cc ......the smaller bikes are fun lighter and do the job better
I think cost has allot to do with it these days too. T7 has been hugely popular for travellers for this reason
@ontheroadadventure agreed but i think the marketing of 1200cc bikes for off road adventure are over ive had a couple and they are heavy when you drop them
Yes, it’s not realistic. What they are selling is the dream of adventure
@@ontheroadadventure im old school, you can have adventure on any bike and you two are proving that, if you had been on your Africa twins, you would not have done half the things youve done on them little twist ang go's Rich is propper bonding with his lol
You are going to love whats coming up soon then!
the thing is about the shoes sometime may be cleaning that's a little thing the local worry about there spiritual thing in there place and I understand how hard to take off and put them back, so I know you can deal with this by your way, have fun in THAILAND guys.
Thanks so much, yes we respect this by staying outside unless we have easy shoes to take off like our crocs when off the bike.
dear rich & ewa
There are no subtitles available with this last upload. Did something go wrong?
Furthermore, another great video that regularly makes me chuckle.
love you ,bye!
Thanks so much, not sure why you can’t see subtitles though, it should always be there for you
Nice seeing rich trying new food, the places what ypur staying in remind me of the cornwall council homeless pods lol. Looking forward to tomorrows video. Ride safe
Yeah the digs are a bit of a lotto, Some good, some a bit rough, but thats the same anywhere really.
@ontheroadadventure don't get me wrong, for the price your paying, and the weather you have , I would definitely be staying in there too, I'd even sleep on the floor with no tv or furniture lol
😂😂😂
Rich: Who do you think you are? ……Marc Marquez when chasing the Forza !
Gotta get your fun where you can, especially when on only 8hp!
😂😂😂 🏍️🏍️🏍️
Bike or scooter the only difference is the wheel size and the rubber band powering the scooter only joking the freedom is what it's all about thay both get you were you want to go too
They are getting the job done... Still moving at least!
The quality of footage from your helmet-cams is very good, what cameras are they please?
Thanks they are Gopro
That snake was definitely alive 😊😊
Yes Google identify thing thinks its a green mamba?!
On a note in Denmark you allways take your shoes of when entering a privat home - it is just considered normal courtesy ❤
Keep up the good work of trying new dishes 🤣🥰
Sounds like Its more common than not... How is Denmark for riding and biking Culture? We havent been yet but plan to put that right
@@ontheroadadventure
Wide beaches you can drive on - beautiful nature hills, lakes and mores - TET tracks ,but you can make your own if you wish
Lovely curvy small road .
Free camping areas and shelters that make the trip a bit more affordable. ❤
And yes we have French hot dogs, hotdogs - grill foods, cakes, ice cream and seafood 😂
So - a Treat is waiting for you in Denmark 🌞💕
That sounds amazing! What’s the best months to visit of course we would do it when going to Norway…
We have about the same weather as England 🌞☔🌞
May to September - so it would fit nicely with Norway trip ❤
Perfect! We hope to do it very soon!!
benzine krab,,, kow ha krab petrol please, 95 octane
ja pai nai,, where you going.
tip, you may want to do an oil change as your doing high miles, its cheap, about 120 baht to do, good to check the bikes.
Keep up the fun
THanks, we will find a local garage and do the oil soon
Khao Soi love it 😋. A little bit like Laksa.
Really not bad grub at all
Am I only one to notice Ewas' eyelashes :) !
Thanks ☺️
That snakes a deadly one, he probably taking numbers of tourist to see how many him and his mates can bite, his name was hissing sid ye 👋🤠👍
A Green Mamba!
that 1100 honda will be to big and heavy for the small tracks
Yes and too expensive to actually enjoy without worry. Theres allot to be said for simple cheap bikes
Thats me and the Mrs back in Thailand today, just come from Scotland
BTW the roads in NE Thailand are relatively poor compared to your current experience
I have a bunch of bikes at my house in Khon Kaen, but recently sold my CBR650R, it was horrible and too peaky on the Thai roads. Im a bit ruined as in Scotland i have 1290 Superduke GT & Tuono V4 1100 Factory
Think before end of this year for here in Thailand i will buy a Honda Forza 350 or Yamaha S Max for kicking around Thailand on
I have the Honda PCX 160 but find it a bit soft as well as Mrs having smaller stuff like you are on now
If you make it to Khon Kaen give me a shout, happy to show u village life 😊
I think the Honda forza is a perfect middle ground for here, a good mix of power and comfort. I bet it’s cold in Scotland right now! Do you ride all year there?
@ontheroadadventure Yes ride all year but to the weather & conditions, dry & above 7c then im good to go
Like us, only Ice stops play
I don’t blame Rich, there is nothing worse than bad food poisoning.
Yes it seems i had good reason to be suspicious of it as youll see soon...
Did you know that Triumph Plymouth and Hartley Davidson Plymouth have closed their doors?... 😮
Yes, and Yamaha in Exeter, all part of the Marsh Group. A Real shame, we will miss them in Devon
Isn’t it handy to take a liter bottle of fuel with you as a reserve ?
So far its not been a problem, i think we would find it even in the smallest village if we really need it
Your new cookery program is called radium shit in a bowl 😀😀great video
haha
You should try thousand year eggs 😂
I would love to see his face if he had a fermented egg, "dont go there"
Cant say i fancy that
Yuk!!
(30:24) your pound, gets more than my dollar, over there. EU 1-45.78 US 1-35.47, so, vacationing, makes more cents, also in Brazil, my dollar, is about the same.
Very cheap living for us here compared to the uk
7 eleven every time without fail would be my choice .
shit ya pants yet 🤣🤣 hope your feeling better 👍
haha yo have no idea how bad things are about to get lol
Quit 7/11 do more local food. It’s great 👍
We are doing both now lol
I'm volunteering rich, to replace the greengrocer on MasterChef, what could possibly go wrong.
haha Rich would make us all a fine meal!
Is Ewa the new stinky boots 🤭😂
See what you did there...!
That soup is excellent and don’t worry about dirty hands 👍
Hmmmmm, some things are best left unseen!
Baby bends get a bit further up north the bends are crazy.
your spot on
You only bought that Harley Davidson water to torment me didn't you 😂😂
We did think of you, had to show it on screen!
You'll be lucky Ewa if you think Rich will become a happy man by being in Thailand?
He loves it really, a Englishman is happy when unhappy lol
basic wage 300 baht a day for a farm or factory worker.
That must be a struggle for them. no wonder they are all so grateful for tips etc. We almost always pay more for services etc here, its the right thing to do
It’s subsistence living. What can help is that Thais live collectively- together. So a little combined with a little can go a longer way.
Makes sense to all share one pot
The thai girls cover up as they dont want to tan and the rest probably cant afford sun cream and or covering up is better ... great commentary as usual
Yes its funny how darker skin people all want to be lighter and us lighter people al want a tan... Its human behaviour to want what we cant have...
Spot on the Thais want the white skin and some bigger boobies,😉
Tell you what Rich don't go planning a ride around India mate, if you think that foods bad, Open wide and just shove it in there's always Imodium, Eva is having a field day HaHa
Yeah for me i think India is probably a step too far!
You get great thaifood when you quit 7/11. Eat and enjoy 👍
Always a gamble here
''You don't see that every day'' Lol. Crack of the trip, yeah you do actually, can't believe you ain't seen 'em before, they literally are everywhere 😂
In a Ironic sorta way!
Rich…..have you experienced childhood trauma with food experiences!?
😂😂😂
