Thanks Jerome! I always enjoy your bike ride videos. I was born in Sukhumvit area and have seen many changes in 50yrs no more big yard houses along Sukhumvit road, Rex hotel closed, Esso& Shell stations moved out, no crowded people at Thong Lor bus stop. Just miss old days sometimes.
Thank you for the suport. I can not imagine how it looked 50 years ago. I can ony compare 13 years, since we arrived here and the changes are already huge. Today I will drink a "Coke Zero" in your honor :-)
So nice and clean. I will be in Bangkok next week, stay in at best comfort hotel which is walking distance to terminal 21 asok. Thank you for the update.
thank you so much for your videos! i am half thai half german and in the past 25 years i spent probably around 3 years in bkk in total. so its very nice to experience the city via your videos and see whats new. everytime i go there nowadays every 1 or 2 years so much has changed :D
Zeer leuk kanaal om te volgen , net wat ik zocht met goede nuttige info in en outs ook nog een Nederlander , ik ben februari in BKK een week ,vanuit daar ga ik een paar eilanden bezoeken in het mooie Thailand. Ik blijf dit kanaal natuurlijk volgen...gr Marcel uut Groningen
Glad there wasn’t too much traffic. City biking scares me over all but I would try it early. Ps. Spencer counted a good handful of 7/11 😂 still baffles me as to how many there are in short distances
Yeah nothing beats an investigation on the ground. Like at 11:40 you show the entrance of The Bangkok Thonglor (a "super luxury 31-storey high-rise condo with a project value of over 4,000 MB"). It's visible on Google Maps but on Google Streetview with photos just like 2 years old you still see the small old houses from before or at most a cleared lot (depends on the viewpoint). Bangkok is already updated quite frequently on Google Streetview but the city just changes too fast.
Very nice. Thank you. I've never been out to Rain Hill or Thong Lor but the Wine Connection on Soi 11 is my new go-to place when I'm craving a decent steak and European wine. As you say, their prices are quite reasonable. The ambiance is nice and they have a good selection also.
Great and informative video mate thanks. Can you please make a video on soi 18 and what hotels and condos are on it. I’m planning to stay there for a few months but not sure how it is.
A nice video and a lot of info about different areas of Bangkok and the Sois. Oh, and I like riding my bike out at Nong Bon by the Rama IX Park. You should head out there some time. I know it's kind of far from the Sukhumvit area but you might like it.
Nice tour. I enjoyed it a lot. I stayed in a condo on Ekkamai when I visited earlier this year. I didn't get to spend any time on Thong Lo, so this video was showed me a lot for when I return. Are there pedestrian bridges over the klong on Ekkamai and Thong Lo for when the new MRT station opens at Phanphirom Park?
On my last visit in early August, I walked from Sofitel Sukhumvit to Queen Sirikit Convention Centre and then to the local market at the corner, where there were few overhead bridges to connect all intersection. Good walk just that the overhead bridges were a torture to my bad knees 😅
Hi, ik ben opzoek naar je video waarin je met de boot gaat zoals die in het begin van dit filmpje als ik het goed herrineren kan, ga je daarmee naar Khao San Road...
I walk the San Saep starting from Asoke near Phetchaburi MRT and after walking west quite a bit, I went east (entering a ways down Petchburi road), and almost got mowed down by a motorbike. I was using earbuds, thinking I was in a safe pedestrian area. Foolish of me, I know. No walking surface is free from motorbikes here, with the exception of the parks (so far).
The downside is the dirty stinky water. Though canals are cleared but because of one of the biggest corruption, Bangkok doesn't have an effective water treatment system still. Waste water is drained directly into canals.

I miss them too ‼️

Used to jog early morning from holiday inn Sukhumvit to the park down the road, few years ago when I can stil flex my knee and jog.

Thank you, I miss these bike ride videos.
Nice to see again your early morning Ride in a very quiet Bangkok. 🙏

Thanks for the trip up Thong Lor, we will be staying opposite Marche when we visit
I appreciate you riding one handed for 20 minutes for us 😂
Haha, my pleasure :-)
very nice :))
Long weekend……Hua Hin was very busy😬
Love your bicycle rides !!! Was no wind noise. Much luck on the saddle
Yes, I was expecting a lot more noise, I change phone every year and the noise gets better and better.
I really enjoyed this bike ride and am learning my way around interesting areas of Bangkok via your videos!
Thank you Jeroen, I like to ride with you through the streets of Bangkok. Greetings from Berlin 👋
Thank you to let me see my home area from abroad ❤
Don2 Donki Japanese supermarket at Thonglor my favorite to eat; Salmon Teriyaki, Unagi n Salmon Sushi, tx4share awesome bro

I enjoy your bike tour videos…the sound is perfect 👍 plus the wind & traffic noise in the background makes it feel real. Cheers 🍻!
Great view thanks !!!..sadly im always late wake up.... he he he
Thanks for your Videos, it's like a small BKK-Trip 😊
Great video as usual
Nice riding Khun Jeroen.I am impressed that the canals has been well organized.
Thanks for the update Jeroen 😀👍🏼

Happy to give the live update :-)
I still remember I give u a tip to bribe the street dog with hotdog for passing thru the gang. 😄
Haha, yes I will need to have some extra hot dogs on me, just in case. ;-)
Road with out traffic is so good
Good city for cycling.....no hills.
👍👍👍

Tremendous performance 🍒
For me, Soi 24 it is not good, It is narrow.
...It has only 2 lanes I think, it has less footpath, it is hard to walk.
Great and informative video mate thanks. Can you please make a video on soi 18 and what hotels and condos are on it. I’m planning to stay there for a few months but not sure how it is.
Actually made a video about 18 on my Bangkok Expat channel : ua-cam.com/video/UHjf0ihOTi0/v-deo.html

Been there a few years ago, indeed a nice park. And yes far from Sukhumvit, haha. ua-cam.com/video/ixvCviaKNn0/v-deo.html

11:29, On your right is the "55th Condominium". I guessed this may be the first residential condominium built in Bangkok.
On my last visit in early August, I walked from Sofitel Sukhumvit to Queen Sirikit Convention Centre and then to the local market at the corner, where there were few overhead bridges to connect all intersection. Good walk just that the overhead bridges were a torture to my bad knees 😅

I went to the Golden Mount ua-cam.com/video/WiMS-ciZEAE/v-deo.html
is there new legislature or does it only seem to me like there is so much more grennery everywhere?
19:09: it’s nearly a speedboot….🤔
Yes, they are going fast :-)
Hello ... how is the weather in bangkok and phuket in early october 2023? Will it be raining?
How’s the rain in late august ? Thinking of a visit next weekend.
It would be nicer if this pathway can only be used for pedestrians only
I walk the San Saep starting from Asoke near Phetchaburi MRT and after walking west quite a bit, I went east (entering a ways down Petchburi road), and almost got mowed down by a motorbike. I was using earbuds, thinking I was in a safe pedestrian area. Foolish of me, I know. No walking surface is free from motorbikes here, with the exception of the parks (so far).
HI! you offer short term rentals? coming to bangkok looking for a place to rent for 33 nights to work somewhere in thong lor / shukomvit 55
Sorry, we can not help with short term rentals.
Can u still ride a bicycle in Benjakitti around the lake ?
If I remember a previous video I don’t think so anymore which is disappointing for bicyclists
Not around the lake. But you can ride in the new park.
One day... one day... you will be getting a call/email from us (Well, either you or Rob - LOL)
Waiting for the call, haha. Rob is just filming, if you actually want an apartment, you can contact us :-)
Is your bike an electric bike?
No, just a normal one.
The downside is the dirty stinky water. Though canals are cleared but because of one of the biggest corruption, Bangkok doesn't have an effective water treatment system still. Waste water is drained directly into canals.
👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👌👌👌👌👌👌👌😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😗😗😗😗😗😗😉😉😉😉😉😉
I am not impressed by the lacking of greenery in the city.
Is fazwaz the best site for foreigners to checkout rentals & sales ?
You might know that we run a Real Estate company here in Bangkok. And honestly we know more then FazWaz. Just connect at info@sukhumvithomes.com
