ALL DETAILS HERE

day 6 UBON RATCHATHANI TO MUKDAHAN
278KMS 4:42HRS of riding

Today we head West for a while till we get to the confluence of the Mun and mighty Mekong rivers to the aptly named two colour river viewpoint. After that stop we then head North and will run up the far Eastern Side of Thailand for most of the day with the Mekong River to our right and Laos on the other side of it.

Beautiful, relaxed laid back day of riding where the traffic will be light, the weather perfect, the roads great and the scenery spectacular. You can even go for a swim in the Mekong if you want. Another thing ticked off your bucket list.

Our hotel for tonight is right in the middle of the famous large and sprawling riverside IndoChina market. Here you can buy just about anything and everything you could possibly imagine, want or need. A perfect place to pick up some souvenirs or gifts at bargain basement prices or just spend some time wandering around taking in the atmosphere and sights.

A great spot for dinner that is just a 4 minute stroll from the front door of the hotel with   fantastic selections of foods and icy cold beers ready and available. Picture perfect setting over the edge of the Mekong River with its views across to Laos in the distance. What a fantastic way to spend the last of the daylight on a warm tropical evening saving cold beers from going out of use by date, having a chat and a laugh and feasting on great food.

How God created humans
oh the mighty dragon give me luck, give me fortune, let us have .ore journeys together
Oh my friends the experience has been great and awesome with you brothers
looks like my belly is wanting more and more of Thai cuisine 
i want more n more foodie 
the shopping is blowing a big hole in my pants, no more place to store
then come my bed the awesome stays
love the sun going down on the Mekong River, what's a nice view 
what can you also more than great roads of Siam my Kingdom of Thailand 
Love the ancient touch well preserved

ZONTES 368G Adventure Scooter: Setting the Benchmark for Touring and Adventure Scooters

Honda sparked a scooter revolution with the groundbreaking X-ADV in 2016, paving the way for adventure scooters like Peugeot’s XP400, KYMCO’s CV-R5, Aprilia’s SR GT 200, and Bristol’s Maxie 400. This year, ZONTES enters the arena with its impressive 368G adventure scooter, poised not just to compete but to redefine the category entirely. At the heart of the ZONTES 368G beats a robust 368 cc single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine, delivering class-leading power figures of 38.8 hp and 40 Nm of torque—surpassing the Peugeot XP400. But the 368G's appeal stretches far beyond just numbers. Engineered for genuine adventure, it is well-equipped to tackle off-road excursions, featuring rugged wire-spoked tubeless wheels (17-inch front and 15-inch rear), adjustable USD forks (41mm with compression and rebound adjustment), and dual rear shocks adjustable for preload and tension with remote reservoirs. An innovative, switchable dual-channel ABS system combined with Spanish-made J.Juan fou...
