Atmos, Craig3365 was so kind to point out your post to me. We are riding 2 recumbent trikes, main benefit, no matter how slow you go uphill, you remain seated, paddling in 1st gear until you reach the top, never dismounting from the bike. Disadventage= body weight doesn't help climbing, everything comes out of the leg muscles.
Question= any praticular resort suggestion as a base camp?
Don't like small. dark bungalows.

Dont know what kind of resort you are looking for, beach resort, golf resort, spa, weekend retreat?
The following links will point you in the right direction,

To the north of Chan is an area called Soi Dao, waterfalls, mountains etc, dont know what kind of ridind you have planned.
This area is littered with many resorts of the "beaten/tourist track", I drive by them and if you didnt know they were they you wouldnt know they exist.
This is one of the most beautiful parts of Thailand, but as yet its full potential hasnt yet been exploited, it remains off the farang radar, known only to the few, and the Thais who are well aware of the area and its potential.
Visit now before it goes the way of other areas.
