Sakon Nakhon Cowboy

 A story I love to tell over and over.

The Day 'Cowboy' drove his tractor from Tha Rae into Sakon City to visit Ned's bar

Feb 4, 2007
According to the manufacturer, the tractor can achieve 40 kph
legal highway speed is 90 kph 

 That was not the speed 'cowboy' was doing. He was on a leisurely cruise.  

No drivers licence required in Thailand to drive farm equipment.  

As cowboy tells it, when he passed through a police road check at Ban That Intersection, the cops sure gave him a stare... 

"...like they were contemplating a reason to stop him and check his papers, but they just couldn't think of any."
I would have loved to have photographed the expressions of the police officers
