Southern Route
This entry is more on to places and advices you can visit when you rent a motorcycle in Borneo if you are not sure than take a guided motorcycle tour. Sabah provides soft and extreme motorcycle trails, for the softy main roads are best to go for sights of scenery the road up Mt Kinabalu is best early in the mornings along the way food and fuel is not a problem. for those who prefer the winding roads,sceneries and meeting with the locals the south side is best. this is where you can try out a slalom kind of trek with [View Full Entry]

Long ride
Words cant express the satisfaction of this riders when they took the long ride every effort of calculation of fuel and food was taken in to consideration. few fell of there bikes due to overconfidence of handling there machine. It took us a total of 9 hours to make it to Maliau basin camp sight. The guys was hip and excited to explore the unknown freedom of riding through the rainforest of north borneo. There was some funny moments during the ride, we had shan who thought he had puled out the bike stan and got off and ended up on [View Full Entry]

30th May 2009, on the eve of our national harvest festival a group of my buddy's set out on a 520km journey headed for a place not many have been to but have only heard of. The last time i was there was 10 years ago and wondered if it look like is does than. All preparation was done and riders was ready the waiting was unbearable as some was still organizing them self at the last minute.

Day 2

04th April 09, After breakfast and a short briefing we headed for a short easy off and on road trip towards the back roads of Kinarut area. along the way i gave pointers on how to ride on a gravel road since being on a flat pavement and being bounced around and trying to control your machine at the same time can be difficult. another reason why o take 1st timers on this part of the area..almost flat, easy, turns and corners and straight long gravel road which is ideal for beginners. it only took us half a day to finish [View Full Entry]

The day looked sunny and bright! Our tour this time was heading to a village at the foot of Mt Kinabalu just a short visit. We started out running at 130km heading for Tuaran and would stop by the last refuelling point for some spare fuel just in case. The road up Nabalu was one of the best even for an enduro bike as the curves and bends snakes up the Mountain, the only mistake was not to take photo as the clouds draws in we stop as much as possible on every corner to get a good shot of the [View Full Entry]

It was like a darkar kinda feeling,...
Try this out....i travel in 1 day from Sandakan to Kota Kinabalu on our enduro 150cc bikes and was accompanied by Mr Taichiro from Japan. We carried spare fuel just in case..our top speed was at 120-130..from hill to valley and through local village's along the way. Mind you most of the ride was ascending to about 1500mtr....imagine that...what would it do to the contained petrol in the gerry cane?...pop and you ll find petrol flying from the back of you bike! But that didnt happened as where prepared so all safety causation was taken. We stoped along the way for [View Full Entry]

Down south….that was on our mind…how far? Will figure it out when we get there…or somewhere!!.. Since it has been raining non stop the previous day we figure it would not continue to rain as the sun was already out. But down south it look gloomy and grey…”will it rain today?”. As we made our way across the south road we decided to take the ferry crossing a small town called Kuala penyu..now the rain started and we where in good spirit that we just thought its just rain nothing more…”we have been in worse hell than this…what would b [View Full Entry]
