Wow! Wow! Wow! Don’t think you could’ve made up a better ending if you wanted to. Karma is a funny thing. Hope you get your monies worth out of this story because it’s a good one. Your pics had me lol-ing all the way through!

Amazing! I giggled the whole way through, which probably annoyed husband sitting next to me. I’m probably going to tell this story at a dinner party sometime 🙂

In reply to Torre – Fearful Adventurer. Torre that's a shame! Did you leave it by the docks? We had one old bike that was kind of broken down and eventually someone stripped it for parts, but that was our fault for letting it sit for so long. One of my friends buys, sells and rents bikes on the island -- let me know if you need a contact!

In reply to DanielR. Hi Daniel, that's good to know! However I have to imagine if this situation played out in the US they would have chastised him for not calling the police to carry out the deed...

This is hilarious. I wish you’d animate the getaway scene with Flash using a hillbilly banjo soundtrack.

We were not so lucky. Someone stole our bike while we were on our Bangkok shopping spree. It hasn’t shown up yet. Koh Tao is a pretty small place, so I’m confused about where it has gone. It was a piece of shit that couldn’t get us up hills—would somebody bother to smuggle it off the island? Hmm.
