Bedeutung
The act of riding a bike.
Kultureller Hintergrund
The 'Sky Lane' (Happy and Healthy Bike Lane) at Suvarnabhumi Airport is a world-class 23km cycling track. It's a hub for 'khìi jak-grà-yaan' enthusiasts every evening. In many provinces, the 'Saleng' (a bicycle or motorcycle with a sidecar) is a vital part of the economy, used for moving goods. Many students in rural areas still 'khìi jak-grà-yaan' to school, often with two or three friends balanced on one bike! Renting a bike is the #1 way to see Sukhothai or Ayutthaya. It's considered the most 'authentic' way for tourists to explore.
Use 'Pan' for Exercise
If you're talking about cycling for fitness, use 'ปั่นจักรยาน' (pan jak-grà-yaan) to sound more like a local.
Tone Alert!
Be careful with the tone of 'ขี่' (khìi). A falling tone 'ขี้' (khîi) means 'to poop'!
