Dear Happy touring cyclists!
I am planning a 3 week bike touring trip from Singapore to Malaysia from Dec 25th to Jan 13th...DOes anyone have any suggestions for a route? I thought going up to the Cameron highlands and then cycling towards Kuala Lumpur to take my flight back to Japan. Basically, I want to try to avoid the traffic and busy roads...I d like to experience a mix of sceneries, like sea side, mountains, greens, I don`t mind climbing mountains... What do you recommend? The east coast, or the west coast...I know every one has their special likes and dislikes, but I d love to hear any suggestion. Thank you anyone! I am in central Japan and would be happy to host you If you ever come this way.

Cycling from Singapore to Kuala Lumpur
But I have cycled from KL to almost everywhere in Thailand... so if that helps...
Hi, sure! I don`t think I will go all the way up to Thailand, but how about Malaysia? How about the roads, traffic, any route suggestions? Have you cycled to the Cameron Highlands? I would appreciate any suggestion...Thank you.
No we went down the east cost (it was not pretty)

We did stay on Pangkor Island on the east cost, which was lovely the rest was just oil palm plantations, no shade, no features.
Everyone raves about Melaka, we didn't get that far down has a plane to catch, and I've cycle all down the west cost of Thailand to Narathiwat and it's lovely and I've been told by other cyclists it's the nice side to cycle down.

if you are in Singapore, you may want to stay at Tree In Lodge hostel..the owner and his companion got lot of experience in knowledge that they may share with you to decide on the route.
