Pan Pan Kun Charity Ride in Thailand
This summer I get a chance to spend 2 months in Thailand for work and personal business. A friend from college reached out once she knew that I was in Thailand. She was organizing an 8-day, 1000-km charity ride from Phuket to Bangkok to raise funds to create exercise space for disabled athletes. After checking the schedule, I told her I could not join them for the whole distance but I could join for the last 2 days from Pranburi to Bangkok, which was about 270 km (167 miles). Pan Pan Kun (ปั่นปันกัน) Project (Cycle to Share) was founded by a group of 4 sports enthusiasts to create a charity ride project to raise awareness and funds to support various causes. Each year the concept and objective of the charity campaign are adjusted to problems presented in the society. This year they rode from Phuket to Bangkok with a total distance of 1,000 kilometers. I joined the team on their 7th day of riding in Pranburi. A couple of other cyclists and I left Bangkok around noon and arrived in Pra
