I am pretty sure it is going to be a blast. Although Bintan and more often Batam have been exploited for cheap tourism, I have heard some great places lurk in the S-E of the island. I was thinking on exploring Batam myself after my hiking trip in August. Your ride report is going to be pretty helpful :D 200 Kms on the Tikit eh. I am pretty sure it is going to be a blast.

But I will report on Bintan when I'm there July 9-11. Its more of a seafood/durian eating trip than a cycle one I'm told but I hope to put in 200km on the tikit. I hope you will have a chance to explore these fascinating islands soon since you are in the region. Its quite heavenly especially with your new foldie. Al Hi Nat,
