But if you are thinking of cycling around the island, thats a bit crazy given the nature of roads and trafic there. I suppose its not all bad. You can hire a van to transport you + bike on the busiest routes. The are plenty of better places in SE asia to cycle. |

Checkout "Biking Asia with Mr Pumpy": http://www.mrpumpy.net IIRC there was an article in Australian Cyclist about a ride where they take you to the top of a mountain before dawn, and basically you spend all morning riding downhill. Might be a bit pedestrian, but if I ever goto Bali I'll be doing it. -kt |

Anywhere in the region. Puts an even bigger question mark over personal safety besides the traffic and road/track conditions. http://www.smartraveller.gov.au/zw-c...vice/Indonesia -- |

riding in Bali
Hmmm, good timing for a post on cycling in Bali, here's a article
from abc.net, Bali on a Bike - Presenter: Eoin Cameron http://www.abc.net.au/perth/stories/s1143443.htm Wednesday, 30 June 2004 Cycling past Gunung Agung, Bali's highest peak. So many Australians have been to Bali, but Andrew Bain took his bicycle...and loved every moment of it. Andrew Bain is a former editor for The lonely Planet , and a travel writer for The Age. He published a book last year about cycling around Australia. He tells Eoin Cameron "anytime I travel anywhere in a car now I get totally bored, it kind of transforms you". It's perhaps unsurprising that Andrew would therefore take only two wheels on his first visit to Bali. -- |
