Recognized as one of the most dangerous roads in the world and regarded as THE MOST dangerous highroad in China is the legendary China National Highway G318, which I'm SO privileged to be riding on, on my very own Singapore-registered motorcycle on it!!
On G318 |
Singapore's longest expressway is PIE (Pan Island Expressway), measuring 42.8KM.. to think that I actually used to feel it was quite long before I started this trip... Hahaha.

Let the picture tell you how tight this two-way uphill climb is |
Breakfast |
My morning |
Frowning in this soft and squishy shiat |
My heart started beating real fast as I imagined all kinds
of scenarios being squashed by the truck.
I was so nervous I tried to reverse and ended up dropping my
bike. This couple here got down immediately and helped me up. Thank God the driver managed to steer out of my way even
while rolling backwards.
Partial areas had some tarmac, but rocks would fall anytime,
anywhere.
Jam |
Just look at how bad the jam is, with barely much space for
a two way traffic. Sigh, this just feels dangerous and I wanna get outta
hereeee as quickly as I can!
Slimy and gooey : ( How long more is this stretch of road work gonna
last.. Lucky being on a bike with my semi off road Pirelli Scorpion MT90/AT
tyres, I’ve got enough grip and I can squeeze in between the traffic to get out asap.
Frowning again |
LOL I just realized I can’t stop frowning in all my pictures
so far. Haiyurrr, how to smile riding in 40KM of such road conditionssss!
Ok out, I’m OUT!!!
Both my bike and I mud stained, but it’s okay, what matters
is we made it out alive.
Damn, that was quite a tiring test.
Passed through Lu Lang, where the locals regard this small town as Little Switzerland. Hmm.. maybe it looks more like Switzerland during Winter. Not now, not really.
