Kembara Pengubat Rindu

 Kembara Pengubat Rindu Alhamdullilah, kami telah berjaya mengadakan satu pengembaraan setelah hampir 2 tahun kami tidak ride bersama-sama. Ride terakhir kami adalah Ride Himalaya pada tahun 2019. Route kami kali ini adalah: Kuala Terengganu - Sungai Petani - Hatyai - Yala - Pattani - Betong - Penang - Jeli - Kuala Terengganu Day 01: 14 May 2022 Kuala Terengganu - Sungai Petani (412 km) Kami memulakan perjalanan agak lewat sikit harini kerana aku terpaksa menunggu isteriku tiba di Kuala Terengganu dari Kuala Lumpur menaiki kapal terbang. Kapal terbang AirAsia mendarat pada pukul 10:50 pagi di lapangan terbang Kuala Terengganu. Selepas saja makan tengahari kami terus pulang rumah untuk bersiap-siap. Kami memulakan perjalanan pada pukul 12:40 tengahari. Kami melalui Banjaran Titiwangsa (Jeli - Gerik) yang mengambil masa 4 jam 30 minit untuk sampai ke Castella Cafe. Cuaca harini sungguh panas sepanjang perjalanan. Sampai di sini saja, isteriku terus terjun dalam air sungai sangat sejuk. T

Why Did I Write This Article?

I wrote it because I want to raise your understanding of what it takes to ride Off Road. I want to educate you and empower you so that you’ll be able ride to the places I ride, and do things that I enjoy doing. My purpose is not to sell you BestRest gear http://www.bestrestproducts.com. (By way of full disclosure you should know that I own the company). Yes, I make or sell gear that’s mentioned in these pages but I’ll try to avoid turning this Article into a sales pitch. If you choose to buy some of my gear that’s great, but that's not my motivation for writing. Every day I talk to customers who call my shop to place an order. During our conversations they ask my opinion about gear they’ll need for Off Road riding. They also ask me to describe riding techniques, help them with
trip preparation, and more. I share what I can, time permitting. I concluded I could do a better job if I put my ideas down on paper so that others could benefit from my riding expertise (or lack thereof). My painful lessons learned can be your classroom. What makes me qualified to write this Article? 

Some might say I’m clearly NOT qualified, since I hold no racing titles or other awards that publicly proclaim my competency. Point taken, I’m not offended. Others might say I’m possibly qualified because I’ve ridden a variety of bikes for fifty-plus years, and because I’ve ridden a few noteworthy adventure routes. Others might say the mere fact that I’ve survived that many years aboard 2 wheels makes me eminently qualified. Read the entire Article then you can decide whether I’m qualified. During the process you might learn a few things you didn’t know, or you’ll be reminded of things once learned, but forgotten. A special thanks to my long time riding buddy Steve Irby. We’ve ridden together for several years and we’ve taken some pretty memorable trips on our BMW’s. Steve provided some of the photos in this Article.
