Now that the "tour de France" is over what is the thought on bicycle type for casual (bai teeo) and leisurely rides given the terrain and state of roads?
R there any bike shops worth a look around HH and what are the prices likely to be? I am not interested in Lycra outfit prices ha, ha!

Best bike shop is (or was) 'Pro bike' up near the ptt station. I would recomend a mountain bike as there are some henious pot holes out there. An ok trek will cost you about 12,000 bht and a good one about 20,000 + well worth it though!!

Hi there Charles.
There's quite a few cyclists round town that 'pai-teaow' each morning.
Also check-out the Hash-House-Harriers page on this site,they + others
meet each month for a cycle-ride either around HH or Cha-Am.
these rides normally take in 30-40kms of back-roads and easy tracks
with about 20+ riders, these routes can be used later by yourself.
(next ride is about 24/25th May in the Cha-Am area).
Hua Hin Bikes on Petkasem Rd will fix you up with a Trek. make
sure to get a coupla water bottles fitted in wiv the deal.
