Global Motorbike Travellers To Meet 7th Time in Thailand Jan. 11 & 12

The 7th annual Southeast Asia gathering of global motorcycle
adventure seekers is slated for January 11-12, 2013 in Chiang Mai, Thailand.  The travellers and
travel dreamers will meet at the Rider’s Corner Bar and Restaurant both evenings at 18:00 to
mingle and trade information on everything from the latest and best maps, motorbikes, routes
and border crossing regulations and Customs.

On Friday there will be a “Welcome Motorcycle Travellers” reception sponsored
by The Heaven and Earth Golden Triangle Riders’ Band from 18:00 – 19:00.  Attendees
from as far away as Canada, Germany, Singapore, Australia and the Republic of South Africa
have registered.

Saturday evening is scheduled to include multimedia presentations by travellers from Great
Britain, Canada and Australia after a BBQ (200 THB, reservations required for the BBQ). The
shows will feature topics such as ongoing motorbike journeys around the world, through China
and one adventure that seems to have no end. More information can be found at the global
