  • This is the end of week three of the Five Weeks to Lampang Hard Enduro documentary. This documents what I have had to endure to get me to a Hard Enduro in Lampang, Thailand. When the Thai organizers put on an Enduro in the Northern regions mountainous areas, a normal enduro becomes a Hard Enduro. The terrain in the North, is so unpredictable and not user friendly so any adverse weather and the trails become impassable to most, especially if they are not prepared. Come with us as I prepare my self, my friends, my bike and my mental self at the age of 69, to conquer a Thai Hard Enduro.....

    I remember that restaurant! Keep us posted Eddie, liked that hat at the beginning.

      Yea, that hat was a present from Shawn, Natta and her two kids Darwin and Stella for my birthday. Wait till next year, my guess is the hat will be very similar with a big 70 on it instead of the 69.....

      Actually, when I got the bike, I sat down after the first big ride on it and plotted out what all I needed to do to make the bike fit me better. Came up with a three phase modification plan. Phase one was just putting things on it that fit my riding style and a couple items that should have been on it from the factory, like a skid plate. Phase two was three items, suspension front and back, knobby tires front and back and gearing change with a lower gearing ratio, so new sprockets and chain. This Hard Enduro is the test for Phase two and I do believe the bike will be just fine for this test. Phase three is the engine mods and I'm saving what all will be done to it for later videos. But, it's got pretty good power now, and it'll scream when I get Phase three done....

      I'm not near as fast as I used to be, I believe Old Age may have something to do with that. The bike is coming along nicely though, the fine tuning on the suspension will probably take place this week. Two more weeks and I'll be in Lampang riding a Thai Hard Enduro. Can't wait!

      Main goal in this enduro is to finish. To do that, I need to keep it up on two wheels and ride within my old age abilities. I'll take it easy....@@brettwicks7339

    I plan to use that pothole excuse from now on.. the truth is though, that I can't see the potholes. I have an appointment this week with the cataract doctor. Maybe if i get my cataracts removed, I will be able to see the potholes.

      Vaughn, after I got my cataract surgeries done, my eyesight is so much better. I had them done 7 months apart and it worked out great.
