Loading the map…
If you have just picked up a rental and want to find out how it handles before committing to anything longer, this is the loop. It starts where the Pattaya Active Bikers start, at Cafe Easy Rider on the Mabprachan side of the Darkside, and it never goes near Sukhumvit. A lap of the lake road first, where the locals walk and the traffic is slow, then east to Bira Circuit to see whether anything is running on the track, and south down the back roads to the Buddha at Khao Chi Chan and the vineyard next door. Back by lunch, or stop at Silverlake and make an afternoon of it.

Rob's take
"This is the ride I'd send anyone on for their first morning on two wheels here. Nothing on it is fast, nothing is technical, and every stop is somewhere you'd actually want to stop. The lake is a different Pattaya from the one on the postcards: joggers, fishermen, a coffee cart. Get the breakfast at Easy Rider first, and if you see the Active Bikers lining up on the forecourt, that's the group that uses this as their start line."
