Hi,
I am new to travelling in Thailand. I have been doing the guesthouse and local transport thing but it's not active enough for me. I am a keen mountain biker from Yorkshire and I am looking to do a few months on a bike around the country and maybe some mountain bike adventure holidays or tours.
My ideal plan is to have a few guided bike rides here in Bangkok or maybe kanchanaburi and get used to the whole riding on Thai roads thing plus a bit of sightseeing while I'm at it. I know there are a few things to see here in Bangkok like temples and I have heard riding on the long tail boats up and down the Chaopayah river is fun. Also haven't been to Kanchanaburi yet and I would love to Visit the Bridge over The River Kwai and Death Railway. Then I would probably want to hire a bike and head off up to Chiang Mai and do some mountain bike downhill trips up there down Doi Pui or Chiang Dao.
Has anybody on here heard of Khao I-to I found the following company offering singletrack trips in Prachinburi at a place called Khao I-to and had wondered if anybody knew it.
Think this may also be the same company but not enquired yet was waiting for some info off readers on here.
Kanchanaburi Trip
Already been on this tour with M.T. Hill Adventures.

The Kanchanaburi Ride was a great experience and as I was the only one going out that day a nice personal experience and amazing trip. I visited Kao Poong Cave, The Death Railway and had a great bike ride between sites. I would recommend it to anyone.
It cost me just 2,700 baht as a solo traveller which I think is an excellent price compared to other companies I looked at. I will be going on more trips in the following week will keep you posted.
