Hey guys! I am a Mountain Biker from Portugal that is travelling around the world and I'll be travelling to Indonesia soon.
I'm going to spend a month in Indonesia in May and I'll be taking my mountain bike.
I'll be flying to and from Bali but plan to visit Java and Lombok as well. I have a few questions regarding riding and taking my bike to these places that maybe someone can help me with.
I am more into Enduro and Downhill riding btw.
I have never been to Indonesia so pardon me for eventual stupid questions:
1. Is is worth taking my bike to the other islands besides Bali?
2. Which places should I go to for riding? Where can I find the epic trails?
3. Anyone here that live in Java, Bali or Lombok that I could go ride with?
4. How safe is it to transport my bike around Indonesia?
5. I'd like to go riding in the black sand mountains, should I take the Bali Bike park tour or is there any other way of getting there?
6. If I decide to leave my bike in Bali you know of any safe place I would be able to leave it?
That's all for now guys! Really appreciate your help here!
