Hello all,
My Thai friend and I will be driving up to Chiang Mai from Khao Lak(near Phuket) in early August. We will be on a KTM 690 Enduro and CRF 250L with 50/50 tires for the long road trip up. We would like advice on leaving from CM on August 9th and getting back to Phrae on the 14th. We would like to go to Laos and tour around a bit. We know it is rainy season, and both bikes are properly Thai registered.
Can anyone point us in the right direction as to which border crossing, good riding areas, or would we be better to tour around Thailand? I have toured around Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai for 5 days last year but did not have a bike which could go off road. We are happy to ride all day and dirt track as well, but limited by tires.
Thank you in advance for any suggestions.
