Mountain Bike Thailand

[Travis Bickle]

I will retire in a few years and my wife and I will settle in Chiang Mai. I have been there a few times and love it but never got the chance to go riding. I have been researching it and thought that others might like to see the videos that I've found. Looks pretty good, especially around Chiang Mai. Some aren't the best quality but you get the idea.

Good videos - it is a shame there are no good gps files for all the above.

Yesterday I went to the Khao-Ito track and the video just really doesn't do it justice.... Really good trails, though the 1 hours slogg to the top was difficult in 34 degree heat and blazing sun...

Found some more and it looks good.

Thanks for posting the videos. My wife is Thai and I've wanted to bring a bike with when I go for vacation. Her friends are over at the house now and know the area some of these videos were shot....interesting!

Man, watching those videos brings me back to my Chiang Mai mountain biking trip at the end of 2009. I definitely need to get back out there again. Thankfully, winter months here out west = best riding conditions there.

Also, does anyone out there know if there is a quality mountain biking scene in Chiang Rai? As much as I love the biking in CM, getting a little more off the beaten path up in Chiang Rai is appealing and I'd like to know if any companies out there are pretty good for showing you trails / providing decent bikes?
