Thailand's Crown Prince Maha Vajiralongkorn is prepared and ready for the weekend's huge and highly anticipated 'Bike for Mum' cycling event in Bangkok, happening on August 16th.

The Crown Prince will lead a convoy of cyclists on a 43-kilometre ride in Bangkok in a show of loyalty and love for his mum Queen Sirikit, who turned 83 a few days ago, on Wednesday, August 12th.

In the evening on his mother's birthday, Crown Prince Maha Vajiralongkorn strapped on his bicycle helmet and jumped on his red mountain bike, taking it for a rehearsal spin around the Royal Suan Amporn Garden. Afterwards the 63-year-old royal released a private video from his bike ride to the media in which you see his Royal Highness pedaling on his fast two-wheeler in a blue T-shirt — his mum's birthday colour — emblazoned with "Bike for Mom".
