Phuket Bike Week 2020 (PBW)
PHUKET BIKE WEEK 2020 “ASIAN Ride Together” welcomes motorcycle enthusiasts from around the world. This legendary event in Asia will celebrate the 26th anniversary on 11th to 13th April 2020. It expects to draw over 10,000 motorcycles, 50,000 visitors from 30 countries to Phuket.
We would like to encourage more HOG members to join the PBW. To facilitate this, we have now changed the itinerary to start the ride on 10th April, as 10th is a public holiday, instead of starting on the 11th April.
We will return one day earlier on 14th April. We hope this will make it easier for our valued HOG members to participate in the ride.
