Here's another.....
After (renting) motorbikes, around Patong for some time....
I decided I'd buy one, for myself.
According to GF, we had to take it to "buddah" to "bless" for good luck.
No problem....after the "monk" splash's down the bike....then, scribbles some stuff on the front, with magic marker...then, (powder's his thumbprints) in the same area....I (then), pay the sum of 2000 baht, for (good luck).
On the way back to Patong, we stop at a red light (intersection).
I notice a "bike wash" place, across the street...and suggest to my GF, that we stop there, so I can "wash this crap, off my new bike"????
Not the most (politically correct) statement, I suppose????
Hey, it must work, though....I haven't crashed yet!
