With the rainy season holding on longer than usual this year, it seemed like the perfect opportunity to check out the waterfalls in the area. Once the rains stop and the cool dry season arrives, the waterfalls aren’t nearly as impressive. On Sunday, I thought I’d head…
Prelude Filip, Frank, and I invited Pom to join us for a weekend off road riding after sharing some great rides with him around Mae Hong Son and Tak.

Eight fabulous days riding and exploring Tak province Thailand. First the long drive from Bangkok to Mae Sot. Always a stop here for a photo. The long boring highway from Bangkok has ended and now the drive up and over the mountains to Mae Sot. A stop at Canadian in Mae Sot is a must. Love his Beef Fajitas…

It is a long way from pretty much everywhere. The entire area is still unspoilt unlike most areas in this region and neighbouring countries. You need to allow a day to get here…
