Chonburi Thailand Motorcycle Rally (Part 1)

Hooked up with the Friend Highway Motorcycle Club to attend a very fun rally in the tiny Chonburi town of Pluak Daeng (literally, Red Termite Village)



The Friend Highway Club mostly ride vintage Yamaha SRs. I'd never even heard of this bike until recently, but I'm now a BIG fan of these vintage 400cc single cylinder thumpers! Check 'em out:


Cafe Racer style, added chrome and tricked out suspension:


Check out these pipes


You can tell a lot of these guys get their custom pipes done by one master:


Kym Thompson on his Yamaha SR

(But can he surf???)

Some other remarkable bikes too! A classic 1953 Triumph


Beautiful WWII era Harley Davidsons:


Wow- who knew there were such amazing motorcycles in Thailand?!


Enjoyed a beautiful sunset ride from Nong Ri to Pluak Daeng-

Here's the scene upon arrival, let's take a look around-


More pictures and videos to come in Part II!
