Real experiences and adventures from life on two wheels on Koh Samui - the good, the wet, and the unforgettable.
My first week on Koh Samui I hired a car. By day seven I returned it and rented a scooter for the rest of the month. Here is the moment that changed my mind.
I ignored the low battery warning at Nathon. Forty minutes later I was pushing a 90 kg electric scooter up a hill in 35-degree heat. Here is what I should have done.
The best views on Samui are not on any tourist map - they are at the end of dirt tracks that only a motorbike can access. I found five of them last season.
I set myself the goal of reaching every named beach on the island by bicycle in three days. Forty-one beaches, 180 km, and two punctures later - here is the full story.
