Couple of photos from yesterdays Bike For Mom.

Location ... i-mobile stadium

I've never seen the highway completely deserted like this before. Was eerie

10 minutes later ... the mob arrived. Stretched way back over the hill towards Khao Kradong traffic lights. Was quite impressive for little Buriram

Took a full 30 minutes for the entire stampede to pass i-mobile. No idea how many cyclists were involved.

Our village did their own Mom Ride, probably had about 1000 participants, kind of fun.  I was the token Farang. 

(Ed, this was the village event I mentioned on the phone)

 bravo1 Great to see another expat taking part.  (http://img.cyclechat.co.uk/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/Laie_76A.gif)

The Bike for MOM was a great success and hopefully it will encourage more people to get out there and do a little exercise.Even our very own Tommynew at 78 years young can be found most early mornings out on his bike ( with his wife also ) taking in a little  exercise and fresh air to start his day (http://www.picgifs.com/smileys/smileys-and-emoticons/cycling/smileys-cycling-617699.gif)
