Floating Market Cycle Trip on Bangkok Car Free Sunday

August 10, 2012

Cycling in Thailand is continuing to be a very popular pastime for both Thais and expats. In recent years, the number of cyclists on the roads has increased greatly. I often see people cycling along the roads at the weekend. I joined their ranks just over a year ago and I’m out cycling most weekends. You can either do this by yourself or join bicycle groups. Some are more serious than others. One I like to join is the Bangkok Car Free Sunday group who organize a tour in Bangkok about once a month. It is free to join though the tour guide usually only speaks Thai. Here is the information for this weekend:

Sunday 12th August 2012

7:00 a.m. Meet up at the riverside park under Pinklao Bridge on the Thonburi Side
7:30  a.m. Ride along Boromrajjachonnee to St Peter School, pick up hand-out and refreshments
8:30 a.m.  Ride along Putthamonthon 1 Road to Bangramard Canal Community
9:00 a.m.  Arrive at Bangramard Community and participate in community service activities, learn about the people’s traditional way of life, visit shops and cafe.
10:30 a.m.  Stop by Klong Lad Mayom Floating Market
12:00 p.m.  Head over to Wat Sapan Floating Market for shopping and lunch
1:00 p.m.  Arrive back at St Peter School

I will be joining them this Sunday so come along and say hello!
