Tom, about the traffic in Thailand
Articles are written up and down the internet to discuss how dangerous it is to travel in the traffic in Thailand. This creates an incredible amount of prejudice, which is completely unnecessary considering what it`s really like.

Tom`s Top 10 Sites to See
1. Chiang Mai to Nan
One of the top 10 motorcycle roads in the world is actually the R1148. But we also need to mention the 1081, 1256, 1333 and the 1257. If you decide to go from Chiang Mai to Nan, and choose to not go the fastest and shortest route, but go the best roads to get an enormous MC experience, the ultimate choice would be to ride the R1001 to Phrao, over the mountains on R1150 and R1148 to Nan. The total ride is about 460 KM. Absoulute stunning scenery and dream roads to ride.
2. GT – Chiang Khong
There is a reason that the road between Mae Sai Border crossing, Golden Triangle and the small cozy city of Chiang Khong is called Paradise Road. When riding at this beautiful road with exellent turns and small mountain passes and tops, you can suddenly see the view and scenery opens up in a great landscape when you are riding over the mountain top. Then you will stop at the Paradise Road sign with great view just 23 KM before the city of Chiang Khong. Absolutely stunning!
3. Doi Mae Salong/Doi Ankhang
If you ride from Chiang Mai and want to go further North, pass Chiang Rai and all the way to the border crossing to Myanmar to Mae Sai, you definetely should ride to Doi Ankhang, who is a small detour on only about 20 km one way, then also top the mountain of Doi Mae Salong. Betutiful stunning scenery, great roads through small villages and tea farms. A must see in North Thailand!
