....came across a piece of information that says people there hire bikes as a pillion rider just like we hire cabs. Just wanted to know if bike rentals could be possible.

It's always a thrill to traverse unknown destinations by bikes. If you know what I'm saying!

Thanks

Hey, I was just scrolling through the Bali forum and came across your post, and I must say that it's a very useful piece of information for as well. I like to travel alone and so, the best option always comes down to bikes.

I really appreciate your efforts in sourcing the information regarding bike rentals. Being a really big fan of cruiser bikes, I find it worthwhile to travel by bikes as it gives me a chance to get close with nature. The scenic rides along countrysides are something are something which I cannot simply describe in words.

Even the stops at a roadside restaurants and motels are enjoyable. The menu may be limited, but it nothing short of amazing ! I recommend anyone and everyone to go on a long long ride at a least once in a lifetime.

If you haven't been to Jakarta, do go there, rent a bike and go on a long ride to Bandung. It should take around 4 hours on a steady ride. It's a nice place and quick getaway from jakarta....to top it all, there are some very good hotels in Bandung.

Regards.
