Hi all, it definitely has been a while since I blogged heart-to-hearts on this space. I hope to spend a little more time sharing my thoughts related to motorcycling, and perhaps other things that take up space in my brain.
Review: Cardo Packtalk Edge
Prior to my first ride with SG NC7, I never considered getting a communications set since I usually ride alone. When I do ride in groups, we managed fine with just hand signs. I took the plunge to getting the duo (one for another helmet)… and here’s what I felt.
SGNC7 WEW Ride — November 2023
Over the past Saturday, some 20-odd riders from the SGNC7 group went up to Malaysia over a day/evening trip which we call West-East-West ride (WEW ride). Four of the riders had pillions with them (yay!) so I had some female company!
Review: Ahleeyado — Mesilau, Kundasang, Sabah (Malaysia)
Whew! I just came back from a 5D4N trip to Sabah, Malaysia with my mum. Safe to say, I will be back again, Sabah!
For this trip, I’d love to share with you guys where we stayed and what we did — Sabah is really an interesting Malaysian state, very much different from Peninsular (Semenanjung) Malaysia. For the third and fourth night, we stayed in Ahleeyado, a property located in the Mesilau highlands. (more…)

I joined SGNC7 a few months after switching my ride to NC750X, since there is a huge wealth of knowledge that I need to learn when it comes to Class 2 bikes…
Winter Travel to Berlin, Germany — 2021/2022
Germany, in short, was amazing. Travelling in winter proved to be much more challenging than expected, since I travelled solo. However, the Christmas markets around Germany gave much warmth.

Motorcycling through Taiwan’s East Coast — 2018
As I am growing older and my penchant for solo adventurous trips has reduced, I often reminisce about the interesting parts of those trips. Back in 2018, I rented a 125cc and explored the East Coast of Taiwan on my own. I was only 1 year and a few months into riding, have yet to own a Class 2A license and was still a poor student, so a 125cc scooter was all I could rent. (more…)
