Earlier this year – me and the BMWMCM group did an East Coast Ride. This is a big ass blog post detailing the trip itself! This is one of my long trip with my black beauty 🙂

At home, after stuffing all the luggage in my two panniers. This was something like 4.30am. Feeling a bit nervous as my eyesight at night is never good. And knowing the highway, it’ll be pitch black when there’s no car!

Not many bikes in fact in Tapah as some of the bikes used the B road hence either they were faster (or slower).
