First - Thanks to Tonybkk. I only found out about this place by reading a trip report he made.
Second - This is the first time I have put together a trip report so I hope its ok.
Third - I'm terrible at taking photos.
I have had my KLX under a week now. Sitting there looking at me, all clean and new with that look in his headlight... you know the one... it says abuse me!
I wanted to wait until I had my new bars and hand guards before hitting any dirt but willpower isnt my strongest point. I'll just take it easy I thought to myslef...
So off I went to Bo Din, a beautiful area 25 km from Bang Kapi, Bangkok.
Decimal GPS: 13.886782,100.796598
Lat 13° 53' 12.4152" Long 100° 47' 47.7528"
Still looking clean but the road ends
Not sure what this guy was doing
The track runs around the lake, in the background are some jumps and climbs
Behind the lakes, a huge area where you will find jumps, hills, steep climbs and more
Hmmm.... Thinking I should swap these dual purpose tires to off road tires
No longer thinking... I need to swap
Made it up to the higher tracks
Klx trying to blend in to its surroundings
My favourite shot of the day
Using mud to convert my tires into slicks
Not sure where this went, about another 100 meters along it was so swampy I had to turn back
Some of the jumps and climbs
Local wildlife wondering what this strange foreigner is up to
On the way out, notice the smile on his face now he is dirty
The floating restaurants on the way in/out to stop for a cold one before heading home for a looooong shower
Cheers

you certainly found a nice playground in Bkk. Do you have co-ords for it... or at least a map location?
