The ride begins as the sun skims the roofs of Chiang Mai’s old quarter, casting long, warm lines across cracked pavement and the occasional temple spire. Cyclists gather at Moo Baan Nai Fun, tighten helmets, and push off into alleys where neon signs flicker on and the aroma of grilled meat and sticky rice pulls the group like a magnet.
