0Peter Hickman Events
Thailand Moto Tours and myself have teamed up to bring you an enduro tour into the new year!
I went over at the beginning of 2023 with a group of mates and it was mega. It was an awesome experience with great riding, views and guaranteed laughs along the way.
So for anyone interested, check out the itinerary below. There are only 12 spaces available so if you’re interested, be quick!
Two options, there is the ‘Riders Tour’ and a ‘Van Tour’, which meets up each evening at the next destination so you could bring your partner/significant other who doesn’t ride if you wanted, again
spaces very limited!
**Please note, this is for experienced off road riders only.
