'Bike for Dad' to celebrate King's 88th birthday

The ride will take off at 3pm on December 11, following His Majesty’s birthday on December 5, which is also National Father’s Day.
Besides the bike rally, the programme features three other great activities, according to the “I like bicycle” fanpage on Facebook.
The bicycle route passes by historic landmarks and scenic areas along Rajdamnoen Avenue, Yaowarat’s Chinatown, Chulalongkorn University, the Ratchaprasong intersection and over Pinklao Bridge to the Thon Buri side of the capital.
The other events are an outdoor performance of Khon-masked dances from the Ramayana epic; a jazz concert and an exhibition to honour the King’s works and encourage people to follow in his footsteps.
