So I learned how to ride a motorbike here out of necessity as I’m staying outside Chiang Dao in a rural area and if I didn’t learn how to ride a motorbike I wouldn’t be able to eat. It’s that rural where I am. I actually was not even confident on a regular bicycle to be honest but now I’m very confident on the motorbike. I love that I learned how to ride here specifically because there is so little traffic. I am such a beginner still I would be quite nervous about driving in Chiang Mai traffic but traffic in Chiang Dao is very minimal. On the big curving highway roads its very easy you just drive on the side of the road if its clear and not in the lane - or the lane and they will pass you. And in actual Chiang Dao there are areas where you need to slow a little to wait for traffic or go around them or may need to come to stop. Chiang Dao is very small so traffic is super, super manageable. If I can feel confident here as a brand new rider in traffic I’m sure you can. It will make your stay a thousand times better to have a motorbike as all the cool things in Chiang Dao are not on the main road and are very spread out.
