After the filming of this video, we realized we should have been wearing protective gear especially when riding on a big bike! We do not recommend people to wear what we wore in this video. We have now invested in some good motorcycle gear and will definitely be putting them to good use! If you are riding on a motorbike, most places will have some gear to rent so that is always an option! Stay safe and thank you for watching :)
It's a good afterthought & it's something you see all the time, but it doesn't matter if you're on a big bike or a scooter, main thing you both had half decent helmets which is the most important thing to wear on a motorbike........
@@K8andGustav The route to Buriram province must pass through Phetchabun Province, which is very beautiful because it is a mountainous and rush green areas. You should stop by to visit Phetchabun province because this province is very famous for Thai people as well for motorbike riding and camping in the mountains.
Highway 118 is the fastest way to Chiang Rai from Chaing Mai, but several side roads have more twists, turns, and views! Thank you for driving responsibly and for wearing helmets! What app are you using that shows the direction, elevation, speed, etc?
Hi Guys I will be travelling to Thailand end of November and will love to do this trip as well. I love the footage can you share what camera set up you used for the filming.
Hi there, thank you so much for watching. We use a Dji mini 3 pro for the drone shots. Insta 360x3 and gopro hero11 and Iphone 14pro😃 enjoy the trip and drive safe.
Good video. But for a long trip, you should wear safety clothing. Such as safety gloves, safty boots, safty pants and jackets. Not ensure 100% for safety but those gears will reduce your pain and loss when any accidents occure. Safe journey.
Nice vid.n David, in Thailand it is NOT 'cool' to walk around with bare feet; in fact it is inappropriate. Apart from Monks do you see Thais walking without footware? Just saying.😅 Enjoy and be safe.
The most dangerous part of driving/riding in Thailand is the local drivers who ignore traffic rules and safety themselves as well as safety of others. Just bought a new Honda CB500F (Hornet); it's more exhausting riding/driving in Thailand than in EU or in U.S. I am sure in other countries, i.e., India, Bangladesh, might be worse than in Thailand..
very good video this road, I know them completely. I have done it about 100 times because I have lived in Chiang Rai for 18 years,, and when I go to Chiang Mai to the French alliance, I take this winding road, .three years ago, they completely did the road and in Thailand. When they do the roads it lasts a long time, I will soon make a video as I changed my motorcycle I bought a triumph Bonneville 900, I will wait until the monsoon has passed to undertake this video. I registered with you if you can do the same that would be nice. A-RA-N
Hey A-Ra-N that sounds like a great bike for long distance drives. Have you tried the Nan loop? It's absolutely wonderful driving. Go check it out, Gustav made a series about it. Will subscribe👍🏽
@@K8andGustav Good on you. I've seen too many horrific injuries and even deaths from tourists not wearing protective gear. It's well worth it. Larn at CP, will show you places to go to buy good gear.
