You might be wondering what is Burapa Bike Week and what is it all about well this event has now been going on for 23 years in Pattaya city of Thailand, it's a event that takes place every year, it's all about raising money for registered Thailand Children's charities, bikers from all around the world turn up at these meets with there most crazy, outrageous looking motorbikes like you never seen before.

This was the 2020 event No 23 which I was at and unfortunately in the past 2 years this event hasn't taken place because of the pandemic but I hear, it's going to be back this following year what they set it up like a festival with food vendors and many other market stalls selling motorbike parts, leather items, T-Shirts, clothing and many other motorbike accessories where a percentage of all the monies made during this event will go to the registered Thailand Children's charities.

I really hope to see this event back this year I remember when I was there in 2020 there were many interesting vintage bikes, cars and pick-up trucks it was like been at ZZ top music festival seeing all these bikers with ZZ type beards but they were all pretty cool friendly dudes.

This event is not only for bikers but for families, tourists, everyone is invited to this event there are abundance of activities for kids and adults, many varieties of foods and soft drinks and they do have beer stalls at certain areas but you were not allowed to walk around the grounds with beer in hand which made it a more safe and friendly atmosphere.

There were a couple of bands that played one during the day time and the other band for the evening they were both very interesting bands to listen to playing from rock and roll right to more modern mellow tunes there was something for everyone to enjoy.

This was one big friendly bikers party I had never seen so well respectful and behaved biker gangs all assembled in one area showing of there proud vintage motorbikes it wasn't what I was expecting on that day but I got to say I was thoroughly enjoying this atmosphere and looking at all these MadMax motorbikes.

It really when without saying that there was a lot of crazy weird modified motorbikes here but not only were their motorbikes to highlight the day there were some pretty cool modified cars and pick-up trucks that had lots of monies spend of them and the lovely Thai car show girls were here to promote the sales.

I would gladly love to see this event back this year for the efforts they put, it's a most eventful day for the public and for the good of the Thailand Children's charities, it is one great event to be amongst the most friendliest motorbike gangs to party with in Thailand or maybe in the world I will be looking forward to the 2022 Burapa Bike Week in Pattaya coming soon.

Wow!!! Now that is an event for sure! I am a huge ZZTop fan! There is just no end to the fun when they get them all together like this. Music, food, beer.... and endless stories!

I will admit that here in the States when bikers get together like this or any event (especially fundraising for a cause like a child with cancer) they are the most respectful and respected people I have ever seen. Funny, right? All my childhood, people talked bad about the gangs of them, and then, one day, it was how wonderful they were.

This was (as always) such an incredible post!!! Always the best! Thank you!!!!
