| Today I am flying to Bangkok to sort out my retirement visa. Once that's done, I need to focus on where in Thailand I'm going to put down my roots. I plan to sign a six-month lease and then buy a good touring motorcycle. A Paris/Dakar-style bike with plenty of power, great fuel capacity and built for long-distance rider comfort. I'm thinking of a KTM, Yamaha, BMW or a Honda, around the 1000cc mark. It needs to have plenty of storage. I will need wet weather gear (given the total number of days it rains here in the tropics), boots and of course, a top-quality helmet. Helmets are not a requirement here in Thailand, but seeing the news at night with the number of traffic accidents involving motorcycles, I won't be risking my head colliding with the pavement without at least a fighting chance of survival. Wish me luck with the visa application... |
