Near miss at NUH!

Just 3 days after installing my DVR, I capture 2 near misses in one day.

At 0:40 a taxi signals left and makes a lane change, only to abruptly try and change back to his original lane, nearly banging into me. Best part is, he only changes his left signal to right signal after I horn him.

Then at 2:10, a car decides that he should drive out blind without checking if the road is clear. Good thing I noticed him behind the lorry.

Installed a motorcycle DVR

Finally installed my V-SYS 720p HD Motorcycle DVR. Got it from a mass order quite some time back for only $95.
Footage is pretty decent and you can make out the license plate numbers of the vehicles. Will probably have to shift the location of the front camera though. Can't use the footage for fancy videos with part of my fairing obscuring anything in the upper left corner.

Road trip: Singapore to HatYai on a 150cc motorcycle

On 1st September, I left Singapore with two other riders on a road trip towards Koh Samui.


Qing Feng and I went up on Honda CBF150 while Vanga rode on his BMW R1100 GS.
In the end, we decided not to head up to Koh Samui because of the long riding involved and the physical toll on our bodies  cruising at only 100km/h.

Our route ended up looking like this.

Day 1: Singapore to Ipoh
Day 2: Ipoh to HatYai
Day 3: R&R in HatYai
Day 4: HatYai to Ipoh
Day 5: Ipoh to Fraser Hill to Malacca
Day 6: Malacca to Singapore
