BE AWARE that most travel & medical insurance policies class motorcycling as a "dangerous activity" or limit cover on hired motorcycles to 125cc MAX. Irish policies may only cover (parts of) the EU. If you're going out of the EU, check with your rental company when booking. Otherwise insure with a specialist broker. i.e. When I travelled to Belarus and Russia my domestic insurance (breakdown, medical, liability) stopped at the eastern EU border. Carole Nash supplied a Green Card for Belarus and sourced a carrier for medical repatriation for Belarus & Russia; the Dutch ANWB supplied motorcycle breakdown cover for Russia, west of the Urals; and the Russian national motor insurer carried 3rd Party Liability for Russia.

In Thailand, the sun never goes down. The climate is suitable for motorcycle riding all the year around. T-shirt, shorts and trainers are the biker's gear for comfortable touring. Small shops, cafés and restaurants are plentiful along the route to quash the thirst and fill the stomach. People are friendly, helpful and always glad to meet a "farang" as they call foreigners. Archeological sites, historical monuments and Buddhist temples are everywhere where you go. Wildlife too. There is hardly a day when someone does not see an elephant or a monkey. There are still vast areas of unspoilt nature and wilderness with beautiful forests and waterfalls. Coral islands have beautiful white sand beaches with coconut palms and coral reefs for snorklers and anglers. Shopping is always on top of agenda since the prices of fashionable clothing and accessories are so low.
If all the above is that what appeals to you join us on our next motorcycle tour of Thailand. We offer an excellent holiday at reasonable price. If you want to ride on your own or with a guided tour-there is always a choice.
