FUIYOH... UNCLE ROGER VISIT RIDER'S CORNER

People keep telling Uncle Roger:

"You must try Tum's khao soi."

Haiyaa... every restaurant in Chiang Mai got somebody claiming they make the best khao soi.

So Uncle Roger ride all the way to Rider's Corner to investigate.

Sit down.

Leg on chair.

Arms folded.

Judging face activated.

One spoonful.
..

Two spoonfuls.
..

Three spoonfuls.
..

FUIYOH!

Now this one good.

Broth rich.

Noodles crispy.

Chicken tender.

Not too sweet.

Not watered down.

Not made for tourists who think mayonnaise is spicy.

FUIYOHHHH!

Uncle Roger look at Tum and say:

"You no longer Tum."

"You now Auntie Tum."

Because in Asia, when food this good, you earn title of Auntie.

Auntie status unlocked.

FUIYOH!

But then Uncle Roger ask one question.

"Auntie Tum... where your MSG?"

Haiyaa.

You make amazing khao soi.

You got beautiful broth.

You got crispy noodles.

But where the little white powder of happiness?

Where the king of flavour?

Where the reason food taste better than your mother's cooking?

MSG!

Haiyaa Auntie.

Why you holding back?

🚨 RIDER'S CORNER WILL BE CLOSED THURSDAY, FRIDAY & SATURDAY 🚨

Yep, the whole circus is packing up and heading to Nan for a three-day staff holiday.

Tum reckons we've packed too much gear.

Bank reckons we've packed just enough.

Khun U reckons we still need another esky, a karaoke machine, and possibly a jet ski.

The old Hilux Tiger is loaded up like a village moving house, Brap's riding shotgun from the top of the pile, and we're off to tackle a few of Nan's finest roads. Road 1081, Road 1148, Doi Phu Kha, Bo Klua and whatever other twisty bits we can find before the suspension gives up completely.

We'll be back on deck Sunday, hopefully refreshed, slightly sunburnt, and with a few new yarns that get more exaggerated every time they're told.

In the meantime:
🍺 Drink a beer for us.
🏍️ Go ride a good road.
🌶️ Eat something spicy.
📸 Send us photos if you find somewhere better than Nan (good luck with that).

See you mob on Sunday.

Rider's Corner
Closed Thursday, Friday & Saturday
Back open Sunday

Mate… we’ve just uncovered photographic evidence that the late great Jack Karlson visited Rider’s Corner and honestly, this may be the most important moment in Australian–Thai relations.

Witnesses say Jack wandered into the restaurant, loosened his shirt collar, pointed at the menu and declared:

“I’m after a succulent Thai meal.”

Tum promptly handed the bloke a steaming bowl of khao soi, which he allegedly attacked with the enthusiasm of a man who’d spent decades preparing for this exact moment.

Reports from nearby tables claim he complimented the noodles on their “gentlemanly flavour profile” before loudly praising the kitchen staff’s “excellent judo skills” for somehow controlling the chaos of lunchtime service.

At one point he reportedly stood up, pointed dramatically at absolutely nobody, and shouted:

“THIS… is democracy manifest!”

…which honestly confused the backpackers but got a standing ovation from two Aussie riders near the beer fridge.

Apparently Jack then spent twenty minutes explaining to Ian that Chiang Mai traffic roundabouts are “far more dangerous than unlawful arrest.”

Fair call too.

New Rider’s Corner artwork imagining what might’ve happened if Australia’s greatest philosopher had rolled into Chiang Mai in search of noodles, cold beers, and a bit of peace.

A succulent Thai meal, mate.

Stow the flamin’ crones… the history books have got it all wrong.

A remarkable Ming dynasty artefact has reportedly been unearthed in China, completely rewriting our understanding of Asian history.

For centuries, scholars believed the Confucian mandarins spent their days composing poetry, debating philosophy, and administering the empire.

Turns out they were actually ripping around the countryside on Honda step-throughs.

The newly discovered vessel clearly depicts members of the imperial elite enjoying what experts are calling:

"Advanced Scootering of the Late Ming Period."

According to translated records, young scholars were required to master the sacred disciplines of:
🛵 Counter Steering
☕ Tea House Navigation
🔧 Carburettor Meditation
📜 The Eightfold Path of Preventive Maintenance

Before being permitted to sit the Imperial Riding Examination.

The famous philosopher Confucius himself is believed to have written:

"The superior man chooses the scenic route."

Or possibly:

"Check your tyre pressures before departing."

Historians remain divided.

The artwork also appears to show noble families embarking on weekend rides through the mountains, stopping for noodles and discussing the eternal question:

"Mate, should we take the twisty road or the really twisty road?"

Most fascinating of all is the discovery of the ancient Rider's Corner emblem, suggesting Chiang Mai's premier motorcycle institution was established several centuries earlier than previously thought.

Ian is naturally claiming this proves Rider's Corner has been serving riders since at least 1423.

The academic community has politely asked him to stop talking.

Further research is ongoing, but one thing seems certain:

The road to wisdom has always involved two wheels, good company, and taking the long way home, mate. 🏍️🏺🍻📜

Crikey… everyone knows about Doi Inthanon.

Everyone knows about the summit.

Everyone knows about the waterfalls.

But the real fun starts when you zoom in a bit and start poking around the little squiggly roads most riders blast straight past.

That’s why we put together this Doi Inthanon / Mae Chaem map — because there’s a heap of good riding in this area that simply wouldn’t fit on the Mae Hong Son Loop map.

Take the 5089 and 7086, for example.

Up until about a year ago there was a dirt section in the middle that split the route in two. The dirt riders loved it.

Now it’s fully paved.

Which means the dirt riders are still complaining about it, while the road riders are having an absolute ball.

It’s a cracking little route:
🏍 narrow mountain roads
⛰ steep switchbacks
🌿 beautiful valleys
🏘 hill tribe villages tucked into the hillsides
📸 scenery that makes you stop every ten minutes for photos

Then there’s the little road up to the Agriculture Education Centre.

Most riders have never even heard of it.

Which is a shame because it’s one of those proper hidden gems:
☕ a tiny coffee shop
🌺 beautifully maintained gardens
🏔 fantastic views back toward Doi Inthanon

The sort of place you discover by accident and then spend the next five years telling everyone about.

And then there’s Mae Chaem itself.

Mate, just look at the map.

Little roads heading off in every direction, disappearing into valleys, climbing ridges, connecting villages and generally encouraging poor time management.

You head out for a quick ride…

…and somehow roll back into Chiang Mai after dark wondering where the entire day went.

Which, honestly, is usually the sign of a bloody good ride.

If you reckon Doi Inthanon is just the summit road, you’re missing most of the story.

Get off the main road, have a poke around, and see what you can find, mate. 🏍️⛰️☕🌿

W.A.R. (Wet Ass Riding)

Chorus
There's some Monkey Butt in these pants
There's some Monkey Butt in these pants
There's some Monkey Butt in these pants
There's some Monkey Butt in these pants

Bring a bucket and a mop for this wet and gushy
Need a fresh pair of jocks and some talcum, not fussy
Need some antifungal cream, mate, trust me
Bring a bucket and a mop for this wet and gushy

Verse 1
Left Rider's Corner just after half past nine
Thought the mountain air was gonna treat me fine
By Hot and Mae Sariang I was soaked completely
My riding pants and un**es had betrayed me discreetly

Stopped at a PTT, bought powder by the crate
The girl behind the counter said, "Long ride today, mate?"
I said, "The bike is perfect, the roads are sublime—
It's just my undercarriage that's having a hard time."

Chorus

Verse 2
I ride on that thing like the cops is behind me
Chasing every twisty road that Thailand can provide me
Over mountain passes, through villages and valleys
Then I stop and realize I've got a billabong in my smallies

Adventure riders know exactly what I mean
You can spend twenty grand and still sweat through your jeans
Cooling vest, cold drinks, mesh jackets are nice
But none of them can save your crotch in paradise

Bridge
I want you to park that big Transalp right in this stream crossing
Cool the boots, cool the seat, cool everything that's roasting
Splashing through the water while the tourists stand and stare
Trying to save what's left of my dignity down there

🚨 SCIENTIFIC BREAKTHROUGH AT RIDER'S CORNER 🚨

Well, this is a bit awkward.

Professor Nigel Brappworthy was supposed to be working on a device to reduce fuel consumption. Instead, he accidentally shrunk the tourists.

By the time we realised something had gone pear-shaped, there were backpackers climbing bacon, paddling across baked beans, and attempting to hike to Pai on a Mae Hong Son Loop map.

The little blokes have since established several settlements:
🏕️ Bean Rapids
🏕️ Bacon Ridge
🏕️ Egg Yolk Peak
🏕️ Greater Sausage Crossing

A rescue mission is underway, although a few have reportedly decided life is better at 5 centimetres tall because:
✅ Fuel is cheaper
✅ Helmets are easier to carry
✅ One coffee lasts a fortnight
✅ The Mae Hong Son Loop can be stretched out to six months

Management would like to remind customers that:

⚠️ All shrunken riders must still hold a valid motorcycle licence.
⚠️ All shrunken motorcycles must still be returned with a full tank.
⚠️ No refunds for accidental miniaturisation.

Righto, we're off to fish another German backpacker out of the baked beans, mate.

Bloody hell… every year thousands of young travellers arrive in Pai with the exact same plan:

🌿 find themselves
🧘 embrace the hippie lifestyle
🐘 buy elephant pants
🛵 rent a scooter despite never having ridden one before

What could possibly go wrong?

Fast-forward three days and they're cruising around barefoot in singlets, discussing spirituality, eating banana pancakes, and confidently explaining that "Pai has really changed me, bro."

Then comes the inevitable lesson from the University of Hard Knocks.

A bit too much confidence.
A bit too much front brake.
A bit too much gravel.

Next thing you know they're sporting the latest Pai fashion accessories:

🩹 matching knee bandages
🩼 rental crutches
🤕 road rash souvenirs
🍺 and a story that somehow starts with:
"Mate, I was only doing about 20..."

Sure you were.

The amazing thing is they all seem genuinely thrilled about it.

Covered in bandages, limping down Walking Street, elephant pants flapping in the breeze, proudly showing off their battle scars like they've just survived an expedition across the Himalayas.

To be fair, surviving Pai on a scooter with no experience, questionable judgement, and a backpack full of life advice from strangers is its own kind of achievement.

Hence the unofficial badge of honour:

I SURVIVED PAI, THAILAND

Barely.

But survived nonetheless, mate. 🩹🛵🍻🐘☮️

We're bloody stoked for this one… if you’re the sort of rider who looks at a map and immediately starts wondering:

"What’s down that road?"

…then this little corner of Northern Thailand is going to ruin your schedule.

We’ve just finished a new Rider’s Corner map covering Phu Chi Fa and Doi Pha Tang — one of the most ridiculously scenic riding areas in the country.

This place is absolutely stacked with:
🏍 twisting mountain roads
⛰ ridgeline views
🌿 remote villages
☕ coffee stops with million-dollar scenery
📸 viewpoints that make your mates back home think you’ve photoshopped the photos

And yes, it includes two of our recently featured favourites:

⭐ The Big Dipper Road (4018) — a proper mountain rollercoaster winding through the hills.

⭐ The Singapore Road — one of the most spectacular little roads in Northern Thailand, dropping off the ridge through hill tribe country toward Route 1155.

Honestly, you could spend days poking around this area and still find roads you’ve never ridden before.

And don’t just stay on the bike either.

Pull over and hike up to the Phu Chi Fa viewpoint, where the mountains roll off into Laos and the sunrise makes even grumpy old riders go quiet for a minute.

Then head up to Doi Pha Tang, where the ridgeline viewpoints look like something out of a fantasy film.

So if your idea of a perfect day involves corners, mountains, coffee, and repeatedly saying:

"Bloody hell, look at that view..."
..then get this area onto your riding bucket list, mate. 🏍️⛰️☕🇹🇭

Crikey… remember that strange mob who rolled into Rider’s Corner a few weeks back and demolished enough food for two breakfasts?

Well, they’re back. And this time they’ve rented motorcycles. Against our better judgement.

Apparently the mission is to carry a suspiciously important key around the Mae Hong Son Loop, avoid dark forces, survive 1,864 corners, and make it back before the first light of the fifth day. No wukkas, mate.

The ancient prophecy states:

"One Loop. One Fellowship. 1,864 Corners."

Or maybe that was just written on the back of the rental agreement.

Either way, the quest is underway.

May their fuel tanks stay full, their corners stay smooth, and their second breakfast tucker never run dry, mate. 🏍️⚔️☕🍳🍺
