This was 4 day motorcycle road trip (2 nights Khao Ko and 1 night in Khao Yai) with Jo, Pete and I (CBR500R, CB500F, S1000XR). Staying at Soundless resort in Khao Ko and Atta Lakeside in Khao Yai. We took highway 1 and 21 out of Bangkok all the way to highway 12 turning left and heading for Khao Ko. Very fun twisty riding along this section of the 12! Fantastic heated pool in Soundless resort great for swimming at night as it does get a bit chilly in Khao Ko. The breakfast buffet didn't meet with Jo's standards and was reported to be "very limited".

By day 3 was time to pack up and head to Khao Yai. Leaving early we had to get back to the 21 but we took a different route instead of the 12. We took the 2304 and 2302, a very twisty mountainous route with lots of beautiful scenery. The turns are sharp and it takes longer but far more scenic option than the 12. Road is in good condition all the way but watch out for debris on the road in some of the turns. We reached Khao Yai mid afternoon and headed straight for the pool. Swimming with a view over the lake and sunset. Jo was finally satisfied the next morning with a fabulous breakfast buffet making the whole trip worth it. Checked out and headed back to Bangkok around lunch time. -- Mitch
