We are going to Thailand in a few months. We usually find a quiet resort and hire a 125cc motorbike for me and the wife to travel on. Never really go fast, maybe 45 - 50 tops. Usual speed less than 30 mph.
Helmets there are a problem. When available they are the old smelly type ( same shape as a cycle helmet) with twisted straps. Finding a decent one is more of an issue as my head is xtra large. Last time out there it started raining, loads of black "stuff" ran from my helmet and it stunk like a dead rat. I felt sick.
This visit thinking of taking our cycle helmets. I don't think the Police will mind, in fact bet they have never seen a cycle helmet, most there don't wear motorcycle helmets.
So is it safe or is it irresponsible?
Thanks
