More than 10,000 motorcycle enthusiasts are expected to roll into
Pattaya Feb. 15-16 for the annual Burapa Bike Week at Silverlake
Vineyard.
The event features a “ride for peace” through the streets of Jomtien
Beach and Pattaya. The “Riders for Peace” project also aims to raise
awareness about the importance of wearing helmets and promoting peace,
unity and friendship among Thai and foreign bikers.
Bike Week festivities will continue with a parade of
cars, an extreme-sports competition, KR Stunt Thai Championship, a Miss
Chopper pageant, booths selling motorcycle and car accessories, and a
paramotorcycle exhibition. Bands from Thailand and Scandinavia are
slated to entertain festival goers.

that bike groups on three continents will attend. There will be bike
groups, classic cars clubs, youth groups and tattoo artists attending as
well.
