Local Riding Advice
Always drive on the left side of the road in Thailand. Drive defensively and watch out for gravel, wet curves, and quick-braking minibus traffic. We supply clean, sanitised helmets with visor protection. In case of punctures or flat tires, call our hotline for assistance.
Cheap as Chips Head Office
Our main garage and dispatch compound is in a quiet, hard-to-find lane off Prabaramee Road. If you choose to pick up a scooter, drop in or give us a call. Our staff will meet you at the main road corner to guide you down.
Finding Us Tips
Head up Prabaramee Road from the Beach intersection. Drive past the mosque. Turn right down the narrow lane immediately before the large electronics shop. We are 50 meters down on the right. Look for the yellow scooter sign!
