Hi I work in BKK and got 35 Rai in Sai Yok Yai we are going to build a Motocross Track end of July beginning of August on 20 rai. I got a YZ125 YZ250 and a YZ250F if anybody is interested to join, help or just visit, just send me a mail always got a spare room to stay and food to eat .
It is around 200Km West from BKK just before National Park Sai Yok Yai, direct on the 232 road to Burma.
It is like Chiang rai but very close to BKK.
If somebody want to come just call 0892194869 or PM I speak English German and Thai.
Enjoy
      take care

Hi Rick,

Sounds great mate, :) i'll be up for visiting for a day out and having a burn, as i'm sure a few other lads from town will.
Is it going to be a weekend project or full time?

But i would tell people it's on the Attached File  323__Custom___2_.jpg   3.56K   2 downloads road to Burma, as they won't be able to find yer! :D

Best of luck and i'll see yer soon

Hi Rick,

I found this link in the bike forum.

The track looks great, I've been looking for something like this for ages as I work in BKK and I've been looking for some mx or enduro at the weekends. Let me know the dates when it's convenient to come and meet you all and check out the track. If bikes/safety gear are for rent then I'd like to do a few laps as well if possible, I've been riding mx for many years, but not since 2006 so it would be really good to get a few laps under my belt.

Hi Rick

Nice place, will try and get up sometime. Do you get your bikes locally in Thailand as I am looking for one....any 250 will do. I also noticed in one of your pics you have a childs mini bike, I have been searching everywhere for one for my son, do you have any details where one can be found?

Cheers
Ace

Yes any time welcome,
what bike you want 4 stroke or 2 stroke?
I order from the States as most bikes in Thailand are very bad maintained they just patch it up all the time.
I stick with Yamaha as Honda got lots of problems with the Valves on 4 strokes and don't make 2 strokes any more.
The 50cc is between 10000 and 20000 depending on condition, I got it for my daughter but she doesn’t want to ride.
Take care

Thanks Rick

2 or 4 stroke, not really bothered its just something for a bit of fun on....do you know of any going?

Regarding the 50cc, do you have any contacts of where I may be able to buy one for my son, I would want a decent one (something safe, with a restriction on the throttle).

Hope to catch up sometime.

Hi harry,
Yes of cause you are welcome,
all the feedback I had so far made me think to open here a Motocross and Enduro Resort, I'm going to have about 10 bikes for Rent and 5-10 Bungalows, in European standard for fair prices so we all can have fun.
Ulli Strecker is coming end of September as well he was German Stadium Cross Champion in 1989 hope he can teach me some things.
I think there are a lot of people who got the Virus off-road bikes, I think once you got it there is no cure, hehe thank god.
Take care
