                    I really must get back to Thailand. Such a nice riding destination and I miss eating Khao Soi very much. Lovely bike the CB650R but not enough leg room for me. #nongkhai #thailandtravel #mekongriver #niceview #riverview #cb650r #hondamotorcyclethailand #motorcycletouring #motorcycletravel #motorcycletrip #motorcycleadventure #motorcycletraveler #solotraveladventures #ridethailand #motorcycletourism #mototravelling

                    First day of my latest tour of New Zealand. Weather was perfect as was the Fush and Chups and a ‘Handle’ of hazy IPA at the Whangamata Club.

                    Glad I went to Myanmar when it was safe to ride. Wish I had seized the opportunity to ride Russia before that became impossible.

                    Been fixing old ride reports. I’m back to 2017 and my Balkans ride. Wonderful ride I did before going to Delhi and riding the Indian Himalayas.
