About your trip

The 8000 Curve Odyssey is a flagship Moto V2 journey - created for riders who live for twisty mountain roads, flowing corners, and days where the ride itself is the destination.

Starting from USD $2,090 per rider
Deposit: USD $800 to secure booking

Each day is thoughtfully designed with balanced saddle time, carefully chosen routes, and room to enjoy the moments that make great rides memorable. Unlike standard tours built to rush from stop to stop, this experience is intentionally unhurried and rider-focused.

Routes are personally scouted and refined, prioritising flow, scenery, and riding satisfaction over distance or speed. The experience is intentionally limited to a small group, ensuring flexibility, safety, and a connected riding atmosphere.

And because great journeys are better shared, pillion riders are welcome at a genuinely minimal additional cost.

Day 2

Day 2 image

Into the Forest of First Impressions

Chiang Mai ➜ Samoeng ➜ Chiang Dao

202 km | 5.0 hours | ~1100 curves

The Odyssey starts strong.

Chiang Mai fades fast as the Samoeng Forest pulls you into its cool, twisting rhythm. The first bends warm you up; the next hundred remind you why you came.

Routes: 121 ➜ 1269 ➜ 1096 ➜ 3052 ➜ 107

Route 3052 delivers your first true mountain‑forest flow - tall trees, sweeping bends, and that “oh yes, this is it” feeling. The descent into Chiang Dao along 107 opens into wide valleys and rising limestone giants.

Arrival in Chiang Dao: A premium boutique retreat with stunning views of the Chiang Dao mountains - the perfect first‑night reward.

Day 3

The Twin Loops of Legend

Chiang Dao ➜ 1346 Loop ➜ 1322 Loop ➜ Chiang Dao

282 km | ~5.0 hrs | ~1,550 curves

Day 3 is where the Odyssey shows its true nature - two iconic loops, each with its own rhythm and reputation.

107 ➜ 1150 - The Warm‑Up:

A smooth climb out of Chiang Dao, cool air, flowing bends, and confidence‑building curves.

1346 - The First Cracker: Narrower, tighter, more immersive. 106 km of switchbacks, sweepers, forest tunnels, and cinematic viewpoints.

1178 ➜ 1322 - The Second Legend:

A sharper, steeper, more dramatic climb. 1322 feels like a mountain opera - higher ridges, tighter twists, dense jungle corridors, and curves that demand focus.

Back to Chiang Dao: Warm dinner. Quiet night. Today, you earned every curve.

Day 4

The Mist Kingdom

Chiang Dao ➜ Sui Thang ➜ Mon Sone ➜ Chiang Rai

275 km | 5.7 hrs | ~1,550 curves

A pre‑sunrise start -today you chase mist, not miles. High ridgelines, soft silver light, and mountains that feel alive.

Route 1178 - Into the Mist:

A steady climb into drifting white curtains.

Cooler air. Softer light. Other‑worldly curves.

Route 1249 - The Short Cracker: Fast transitions. Tight corners. A compact adrenaline hit.

Route 1338 - The Forest Ribbon: Narrow, shaded, quiet. Pure joy between bends.

Arrival in Chiang Rai:

Check into a boutique green resort right in the heart of city centre - greenery, calm, and the perfect end to a dreamlike day.

Day 5

Chiang Rai Rest Day

Chiang Rai - Reset · Recover · Explore · Breathe

After 3 big days of riding and more than 4,000 curves behind you, Day 5 is the deliberate pause - the moment the Odyssey lets you breathe, reset, and soak in the culture, colour, and calm of Chiang Rai.

Slow morning to recharge after two big riding days.

White Temple: surreal, moonlit architecture - easy cultural wander.

Coffee culture: boutique cafés and slow‑paced Chiang Rai energy.

Optional: Blue Temple, Black House, local markets.

Afternoon: pool, massage, or pure downtime at the resort.

Evening: relaxed dinner and easy conversations before the mountains return tomorrow.

Day 6

The Triangle of Legends

Chiang Rai ➜ White Temple ➜ Golden Triangle ➜ Chiang Khong

Day 6 shifts the Odyssey - its about myth, borders, and the feeling of riding through places where stories have lived for centuries.

Wat Rong Khun - The White Temple: One of Thailand’s most surreal landmarks.

The Golden Triangle - Where Three Nations Meet:

Thailand. Laos. Myanmar. 3 borders divided by rivers, united by stories. A moment riders remember.

1155 - The Cracker of the Day:

A beautifully carved mountain road hugging the border, offering sweeping views and flowing bends that feel engineered for joy.

Ban Huai Ian Viewpoint & Kaeng Pha Dai: A quiet ridge with rolling green hills. A rugged riverside viewpoint - raw, untouched, and perfect for capturing the wild spirit of the Odyssey.

Arrival in Chiang Khong: Stay at warm & friendly country resort with peaceful views.

Day 7

The Cracker of all Days

Chiang Khong ➜ Doi Pha Tang ➜ Phu Chi Fa ➜ Route 1148 ➜ Phayao

270 km | 5.5 hrs | ~1,220 curves

Every great odyssey has a defining chapter - the day riders speak of in lowered voices, the day that becomes legend. Day 5 is that chapter.

Route 1155 - The Awakening: fast border‑ridge warm‑up with Laos views.

Route 4029 - The Stairway to the Sky: steep climb into cold air and above‑cloud ridgelines. A ride above the sky.

Doi Pha Tang: endless mountains and drifting cloud rivers.

Route 1093 - The Roads of the Gods: If any road in Thailand feels designed by mountain gods, it’s 1093. razor switchbacks and narrow airborne ridges.

Route 1148 - the crown jewel: one of Asia’s greatest motorcycle roads - a world‑class masterpiece of nature. Flawless curves, hypnotic rhythm, world‑class riding.

Arrival in Phayao: roll into Phayao for a quiet, well‑earned night.

Day 8

Day 8 image

The Kingdom of the Great Curves

Phayao ➜ Route 1256 ➜ Route 1081 ➜ Nan

197 km | 4.5 hrs | ~1,030 curves

If Day 7 was the crown jewel, Day 8 is the throne room - the day you ride roads so perfectly sculpted they feel mythical. Not just challenging. Not just beautiful. Right.

Route 1256 - The Cracker of the East: sharp climb through dense forest, breaking onto high ridgelines with commanding views.

Route 1081 - The Road of Legends: If 1256 is the climb, 1081 is the revelation. A flowing, cinematic ribbon of asphalt sweeping through valleys and ridges.

1169 ➜ 1225 ➜ 1168 - The Victory Lap: The final stretch eases you toward Nan. Forested hills. Quiet countryside. A softer pace. The intensity fades. The mind settles.

You’ve conquered two of Thailand’s greatest roads.

Arrival in Nan: Tomorrow is the farewell - but tonight, the Kingdom of the Great Curves still echoes in your body.

Day 9

Day 9 image

The Final Descent

Nan ➜ 1091 ➜ 1251 ➜ 120 ➜ 118 ➜ Chiang Mai

278 km | ~4.8 hrs | ~980 curves

Every odyssey has a final chapter - not an ending, but a return.

A return to where you began, carrying the roads inside you. Day 7 is that return.

Route 1091 - The Morning Flow: The day begins on 1091, easing you back into motion. Long, flowing curves. Soft elevation changes. Forests glowing in early light.

Route 1251 - The Ridge of Quiet Beauty: A lesser‑known gem traced along gentle ridgelines. This road doesn’t demand - it invites.

Route 120 - The Valley Run: Dropping onto Route 120, the world widens. Mountains pull back. Valleys stretch out.

Route 118 - The Final Ribbon: Your last major road of the journey. Smooth, fast, deeply satisfying.

A final ribbon of asphalt guiding you toward Chiang Mai with grace.

About your organizer

Moto V2 is a rider-led adventure touring brand focused on quality-first motorcycle experiences.

After years of riding, a pattern became clear:

most motorcycle tours are designed around logistics - not riding.

Moto V2 exists to change that.

We don’t chase distance, checklists, or sightseeing schedules.

We design journeys around flow, rhythm, and how a day feels in the saddle.

Every route, stop, and overnight is chosen to support the ride itself, not distract from it.
