ROYAL ENFIELD CLASSIC
Until the 27th of this month and from 11am to 9pm there's an excellent event out at the Chiang Mai International Convention Centre, Chang Phueak.

Luckily I had my mobile 'phone camera with me.

Basically, one can stroll around this massive complex eating from a range of hundreds of food stalls ....

There's a car display.

... a bike display containing some interesting machinery.

The little Yamaha QBIX 125 @ 53,500 baht.

The Yamaha MSLAZ 150cc @ 89,500 baht.

The very tempting Honda CRF250 Rally.
(Incidentally, at the moment there are five of them at Big Wing waiting for new owners)

The Suzuki Van Van (most comfy seat available?)

The magnificent Royal Enfield Chrome Classic @ 198,800 baht.

And a bike that has missed my notice until today, the Benelli TRX 502 @ (I believe) 250,000 baht.
Made in China I believe. But looks stunning.

The wonderful Kawasaki W800 (or is that the most comfy seat?)

Another little Benelli I wasn't aware of.

And if you need quick cash for a deposit on a Benz or Benelli ...

Should one want to branch out into floristry or mobile food stalls there's a display of 'food trucks'.

A pleasant afternoon.
Back into the stretched tuk-tuk and to home.

re the Benelli TRK.
It may be Chinese made and we may have reservations about its quality but the chap at the
stand told me the bike comes with a three year unlimited km warranty. That's not to be sneezed at.
