Sabah ~ Borneo weekend ride

Post by mr.adi »

Me and two friends finally managed to fit in a two day escapades during a particular weekend, after we're done with some assignments in Borneo. a quick browse in the internet showed a bike-for-hire company called Go-Go Sabah, a company based in Kota Kinabalu,the capital city of Sabah, Malaysia.
the rent for a KLX 150cc Kawasaki was $70 per day, that's approximately 12GBpounds.

the ride covered about 300kilometres from our start point, kota kinabalu, to The Mount Kinabalu ( the highest peak in SE Asia), to Ranau, Tambunan, and back to Kota Kinabalu.

although it's a relatively short ride, i think it was quite a feat as we were all from peninsular Malaysia, and it is not often this kind of opportunity arises for us.
enjoy the photos, friends..
