Where the bike comes from and where the bag stays.

The start and the finish. Both roads out of it — 107 to the north, 108 to the south — are the loop's two ends.
The long version
Inference — the useful thing to say about Chiang Mai on a page about the loop is what it is for: rental, spares, a proper helmet if the shop's is bad, and the place the suitcase sits for four days.
One measured fact worth carrying out of town: across four burning seasons Chiang Mai's March mean PM2.5 is 37.8 µg/m³, higher than any town on the circuit. The air improves as you leave.
Now
Everything the rest of the circuit does not have: tyres in stock, a dealer for most brands, and a hospital that does not need a transfer.
