I have just found a company called SpiceRoads Cycling Tours which has a number of Southeast Asia tours. Does anyone have any firsthand experience with this company that they would share? I am starting to focus on their Thailand road cycle tours. Thanks

Used them for family bike tour in Northern Thailand about a year ago and they were very good. Our guide was helpful and pleasant and we were followed by a van.pbraun0

Hi El Rey, I have never used Spice Roads or any other tour company for any cycling in Thailand yet. I live in Nakhon Phanom (NE Thailand) for 3-4 months every year, full time from this August, and cycle all the time whilst there.
Here another couple of tour companies that you may or not know about, they all do road tours in Thailand.

If you have never cycled in Thailand before, then I suggest you head for Chiang Mai or to a lesser extent Chiang Rai, there is a massive cycling scene there, both road and mountain bike, with the locals and plenty of expats enjoying fantastic roads, scenery, food, and the climate. I will be up in Chiang Rai and Chiang Mai for a week approximately in early March, going to try some of the climbs around there (I must be mad) lol.
If I can be of any further help just drop me a PM.

Thanks. As you can see I have been slow in looking at this post. I am doing the Bangkok-Phuket ride in Oct. If all goes well then I will look at either a Northern Thailand ride or the Ho Chi Min Highway ride next year.0

Just completed a 10 day trip from Bangkok to Phuket and it was a great experience. I wish the roads in America where so good and the drivers so polite. The guides were great, the hotels were excellent, and the food was outstanding. I will post more on my blog at getmytravelingshoes.wordpress.com.0
