2Up and Overloaded - ADV Motorcycle Travel Podcast

Could this be the greatest experience to be had in Malaysia?
We originally had no intention of riding our motorcycle onto one of East Malaysia’s most beautiful and pristine beaches. Our plan had been simply to complete the Tip to Tip Route on the island of Borneo and reach its northernmost point. But I am so glad we took this little detour to have the jaw-dropping experience of a lifetime.

TODAY we begin our great East Malaysian odyssey – from Tip to Tip and along the Pan-Borneo Highway stretching all the way from Kilometer 0 to the other end of the island in Tawau. We’ll be riding over 2,150 miles (3,500 kilometers), touching the beaches of three different seas, through some of the thickest jungles of Southeast Asia, and to the highest mountain of Borneo.
It’s an epic quest of monumental proportions, and we’re going to be doing it all on a KTM 250 Adventure! 2 people and all of our stuff squished onto one small motorcycle that doesn’t have a good luggage system...
What could possibly go wrong?

We’ve always used a phone as our GPS navigation system when traveling on a motorcycle. And usually everything works out great. But today, we discovered that we’d made a big mistake with our phone, and it’s now dead. And suddenly we realize how vulnerable and lost we are without it.

Moreover, with two more international borders to cross today, we’re hoping that we can fix this problem before we get stuck in the middle of nowhere with no idea of how to get to where we need to go...

As we continued our journey riding a motorcycle through East Malaysia, we thought we had gotten through the worst of the rain in Brunei and Sarawak. But once we crossed into the Malaysian state of Sabah and headed to the big city of Kota Kinabalu, we realized that Mother Nature was not done with us yet.
Ahead of us was the Pan-Borneo Highway... except we could no longer see it. The entire road and surrounding region was covered in a thick layer of brown water, entirely flooded out. And not knowing how long this flooded road was going to be for, or more importantly, how deep it was, we just plowed right into it, hoping for the best... But also fearing the worst.

It’s the Sea to Sky Challenge of Borneo – riding from the seaside city of Kota Kinabalu to the highest point you can go by road on the island, a town on the slopes of Mount Kinabalu at an altitude of 1900 meters (6200 feet). It’s an impressive feat to accomplish, and considering that we are on the equator here, going from tropics to a sub-alpine climate is a crazy, stark change of elevation that took our breath away (literally).
But if the elevation rise wasn’t enough, we were surprised to find ourselves on a narrow and steep road to get to the highest point, and that it was even more of a challenge.
