- Riding in Singapore a few times a week over the last 2 years when we were trapped means the routes quickly become repeated. A lot of the roads we've been on way too many times. It's the same thing every weekend like listening to the same song on repeat. Also the traffic light density makes it a pain to get any form of meaningful training in. Stopping every 500m is not only a waste of time, but it prevents your body from getting any adaptive response from what base training should be - couple of hours of steady state continuous easy-moderate efforts. Johor is just a passport chop away and there is so much to explore, so many possible route variations. So welcome to this episode where we take a trip to Johor and ride our bikes with minimal traffic light interruptions without a clue of where we actually want to go. We had so much fun that we said we'd do this every week from now on.
Side note, I have finally managed to fix the audio and made it crystal clear now without too much ambient noise. Enjoy!
Check out the route we did: / strava

Traffic light density is definitely real annoying here in SG. I've been thinking about doing solo rides across the border, and now i'm convinced i'll start doing it. Cheers for the video.
Absolutely go for it! I did one 2 weeks ago, the hesitation was 100% unfounded
i'm more of an off road rider but i always love the way you film your videos its always interesting to watch
Always aim to please
agree broo...
Thanks for the feature! Love your video!
Chill ride, and the food looked AMAZING!
Well you just picked my next holiday destination. Malaysia here I come 😃
Hey mate, looks like you had a great ride. Another excellent vid too.
Thanks! Will keep it going 😬
All this rides outside of sg are so interesting!
A breath of fresh air indeed
I love watching your video:) it make my day:) But please ride safe while video. Have a great week!
Thanks for watching! Appreciate the kind words +++
Guys, lesser traffic light also means driver there will drive faster and faster, and in Malaysia, pedestrians are not king like in Singapore, so be very careful out there.
Awesome vlog! Subscribed!
Just came across the channel. Your vids are dope!
Thanks Christian!
Good stuff dudes! The noodles looked good!
Two lovely Malaysian boys !
love the weekly videos! only gripe is that the videos are a little short. just when im enjoying the video, it ended.
My girlfriend absolutely knows what you’re talking about
I will be living in Penang for a few months at the the end of the year. Really tempted to bring my bike now.
You definitely should!
Wow 🤩
Hey man don’t know if you knew about this but your audio in this video was pretty rough sounded like something was going on with your mic.
But like always keep up the good work always love watching your videos
Cheers
Cam 😁
Thanks Cam! I thought I cleaned up the audio quite well on this one to remove a lot of the background noise, looks like I still got some work to do 😂
@@thewinsty all good man I know some content creators like to be notified about that stuff that’s all 😁👍
Not complaining 😉
you should visit beijing one day. huge variety of routes, big mountains, and super bike friendly.
Yes for sure! China must have some very cool terrain
I like your videos it has the best View and the agle is not shake-shake. What is the Title of the background song?
When To Stop - Lofive
Thanks! New video coming today :)
very nice bikes there
Good for recreational rides.
you guys were in enemy territory.. walking into that trek store 😂
Hahaha indeed
Out of curiosity do you purchase travel insurance at all for your rides into Malaysia, or do you just wing it on a Prayer?
We wing it, without prayer 😉 In all seriousness though, I think it’s quite an unfair reputation for Malaysia to be risky - there’s much lower traffic density, a lot of road shoulder to ride on, drivers a lot more skilled at managing unpredictability. My only gripe is IF something does happen, then yeah it gets a lot more troublesome to be transported back home.
yo what did you use to record? Gopro? Nice video btw really encouraging to know that there are more roads to ride on
I use a GoPro Hero 9. And yes absolutely! We live in a small pond and cycling is best for exploring outside of what we are familiar with
Very Nice
First, but can you post every weekend? 😆
100k subs and I’ll quit my job
Nice video man. Just curious if cyclists should bring a touch and go card for the toll fee?
There are no tolls for cyclists
Hi, thanks for the videos. Giving good ideas and vibes. Just checking since you’ve been in and out of SG pretty regularly recently, how’s the general traffic at immigration MY bound at about 7am? Any preferable times to cross customs through and fro?
7am should be quite smooth. I think most people do 5am and 10am so if you offset a bit eg 7am and 12pm then it’s quite safe
@@thewinsty thanks! Think I saw you guys last Sat, 27/08 at immigrations towards SG. Anyway keep things going! Will look forward to the next video.
@@kelvinhocm That was us!
hi! can i ask what were the things that you did to fix the audio?
I use the voice isolation feature on fcpx
Wooots hahaha
Hi, is there any map or route to share? would love to explore Msia
lovely video, I miss Singapore! What you filming on?
Hi! I’m using a GoPro Hero 9 :)
@@thewinsty thought it was a gopro. Do you use different setting for the b-roll shots? The quality is very good.
@@JustJamesMedia I use the same setting throughout, 4K 60fps (produced in 30 fps on FCPX) and wide angle
Cinematic mode, I just checked
Are there any Audax Events in Singapore?
is this bike good for big people?
what a nice biking
.....to malaysia.......(johor?)
Yep it is our fav neighbour Johor
what handlebar bag is julian using?
Hello! Thanks for your patience, it’s called Roadrunner according to him
@@thewinsty thanks man appreciate it
I wonder what cycling glasses should I wear? I Also have astigmatism like that guy.
Definitely get the Oakley jawbreakers. Bombproof and ability to put degree lenses behind the sunglasses lens. Around $500+ with degree lens tho 🤣
