Shibadog Turbocharged August 3, 2020 Share August 3, 2020 5 minutes ago, Watwheels said: No. I didnt bother to what fb page. I expected the duo to do a detail road trip. That's what a road trip is all about. Why would I want to watch two guys spend time talking in the video? I wanted to see how they do it. Things like in remote mountainous areas how they find food, water, fuel or oil. Do they dump the used oil properly or just dump it by the road? This is exactly why it should be detailed. The video can be broken into 4-5 mini episodes of 30-45mins. Ppl will want to try it if they do a good video. But it's kinda disappointing. I compare their video to other road trip videos, be it overseas road trip or 4x4 road trip. I dont compare it with athletes. If you want to I can also do it. If I want to run a marathon and I have never done a full marathon in my life I dont just go and do one w/o some planning or training. I might train myself to do a gradual increment in distance 5km, 10km, 21km etc. to see whether I can do full marathon. If you get what I mean. I dont go announcing to the world I'm going to do a full marathon when I have never done one before and then go make a fool of myself. I dont wear a big hat if I dont have a big head. Why the video draw negative comments is because these guys are overconfident and overestimated their own abilities. That's how I see it. they did the trip for themselves, not for you. Their fb (which i provided earlier) got many text, pics, vids detailing their journey as time passed. If you can't be bothered to go look at it, then you don't have any right to sit on your couch and complain that they didn't spoon feed you. BTW the initial video wasn't even done by them. It was a 3rd party. ↡ Advertisement 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That plus "keyboard warrior" probably are apt descriptions for people that disparage their effort and achievement. Nope. I just find the amount of negativity on the Internet ridiculously high. Especially when these guys are just sharing a story. Has negativity ever sent anyone to the Moon or made airplanes fly? 5 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would I bother after finding out they havent done the things they claim to have done? No lah. I wont even bother to click on the fb page. I have already wasted my time on the video. Doesnt matter who done the video. The title is misleading much like a click bait. I also dunno why they want this publicity. Look at the BS title.

In my younger days, i would go for short day trips up North. twice to thrice every month i would just ride into Pasir Gudang for my regular spins round the track. of course after marraige, all these stopped. As for going to Johor for food and shopping, that just not my thing. A bike tour up north and even into thailand has more possibility. Too many of my friends have gone while i remained. so maybe when i “fully” retire at 55, i can be (lau) hero finally again Hero, is 55 coming very soon?

Jamesc Hypersonic August 3, 2020 Share August 3, 2020 Yah lah I have never seen so much negativity here. C90 no power to go up hills lah. C90 ride until backside ache need to go Thai massage lah.

So much anger and bitterness. see for yourself. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karoon Turbocharged August 4, 2020 Share August 4, 2020 Give them credit for trying. They picked the right bike but probably not tinkerers. Those who suggest honda cub for this kind of trip probably never tried riding long distance on the NSH. The difference with riding a touring bike is like riding on a cloud Vs riding a kitchen blender. This kind of trip is like my bucket list when I'm 60. Kids grown up, wife too n/b/s/h-aggy so plan for a world ride through Kashmir, Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Congo, Nigeria, down to Cape town. After that cage dive with white sharks. If still alive, join worldwide nuclear plant meltdown first response team somewhere. Cannot come back. Cpf empty/locked up. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
