Popular Post Yessongs Posted April 20, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted April 20, 2023 Just looking at a pic of my "gal pals" from the gym yesterday. These gals are so cool. Just a real pleasure to talk with and trade stories with. Believe me when I tell you, these gals are all in great shape. These were the first gals that talk to me when I joined last Oct. 4 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a UK driving licence that covers me for small cc bikes but nothing like 125cc, so you are not legally allowed to ride a bike in Thailand even if the bike company lets you hire one. It's a good get out clause for your travel insurance company. Took me years to realise that having a UK car driving licence doesn't allow me to ride a higher cc motorbike in Thailand . A friendly BIB advised me I was riding illegally; I went straight to route 36 centre to get a Thai licence. Yep your right dave,as i just been looking at their gold package,must have held a motorbike license for 3 years Motorcycling as a rider or passenger on a machine 125cc or under (You must wear a crash helmet and, as a rider, have held a motorcycle licence for at least 3 years and are conviction free) Geez ive been riding pcx and various other bikes nothing under 125cc for over 15 years,never even had a buddha hanging on the bike,well i might just go get a thai bike license,is this poss on a 30 day ? i wonder,ill be hiring a car for a week anyhow to drive to kanchanburi so less time on the bike,i know my gf hasnt a license either lol tit.

Nobody in my wife's family has a licence and they all ride bikes but mainly around the jungle away from the main roads. I will be renewing my licence probably on a 30 day licence so presume you will be able to get a new Thai licence in a similar way. I just feel more comfortable having a Thai driving licence, usually gets me waved on, both on my car and also on my bike when stopped. There's seems to be a certain respect given to those with a Thai licence, maybe just my perception but I believe it is beneficial. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boydeste Posted April 20, 2023 Share Posted April 20, 2023 Been a busy afternoon putting new line on my distance casting reels and sorting my bag out for a trip next week to my big lake. Also decided to give the back of my van a clean, it's nice to start the season off with new line and a clean van. Watching Selby and Selt battle it out, then will go for a walk. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well done. First walk in a Month too!!! I mainly walked on the Baht Bus route in case I had to take a break but I was also very conscious of my Sciatica returning with the jolting so just kept going ! EDIT = I wasn't carrying any weight on my back either as my shopping tasks were stocking up on medicine for UK..

boydeste Posted April 21, 2023 Share Posted April 21, 2023 (edited) Being cold and wet most days since I have been home is a drag. Had breakfast with a couple of mates this morning, then went for a 2 mile walk before settling down to watch the grudge match on TV.
