Friendship Bridge Laos/Thailand
NOt a hughe deal, but I was not aware as I was stamped out of Thailand headed for Laos, that the friendship bridge boarder crossing is not open to motorcycles. I only learned this after in countries where motorcycles outnumber the mosquito population 5 to 1 I didn't see a single one but mine. After talking witht he head customes guy it turned out the reason is political between the DOT of Laos and Thailand. The Customs offical didn't agree with the decsion cause it was "making turists worry" so he let me through because my plates are Australian, not Thai.
Anyways, just an update for anyone interested.
