Klang so hot, but I see forecast neighboring area all got rain except Klang. Wah cilaka sungguh. Being 'u tak suka u keluar' philosophy enjoyer, I gtfo to Genting.

Got more than I bargained for 🤣. It started raining as I was heading into Serendah, and the rain clouds seemed to follow me all the way through Batang Kali to the top of Genting. Everything stayed safe and dry once I had the tent set up, however. On the second night, comes a heavy rainstorm.
But honestly, it was a good deal for me as a rain-chaser camper. That pitter patter rain sound is better than sex. The storm is just cherry on top, feels good that convinced me that my investment in a good tent really pays off lol

If you want to do moto camp, first get moto. I recommend kapcai because its super flexible and agile when doing offroad. But some prefer big bike so they can bring more stuff and ride faster (but offroading is going to pain in the ass).
Get:
-tent
-chair
-table
-lantern
-stove and pot if you plan to cook stuff
-sleeping bag if you plan to go high up (this one has its own broad topic but for starter, just look for good deal in JJJ)
-and other minor stuff like lighter, air pillow, knife, chopstick/sudu etc

Dont cheap out on tents, gas appliances and lights.
Buy a really good, lightweight tents, it can be expensive but buy once cry once. For starters can survey Naturehike brand, like Cloud up 2 or Mongar . Its considered cheap but very reliable.
Then get a chair, cheap lightweight one like Naturehike YL-05. Table anything light also can. The general rule is all your items must be able to pack in around 50cm or less.

Ah dont worry its Genting. Safer than regular campsite

Here no harimau. The scarier creature is those car campers drinking alcohol and start doing weird shits I also sked to go near

Klang is like that one. Either panas nak mampus or straight up banjir.
Really can't have nice things here

Come la do it. No need to straight do like me. Ive been doing this for like 13 years ofc the hurdle seems high.
Just do basic chill with car and bring regular household items also can.

R&D activities. (Rehat & Duduk)
some cooking, reading, and sleep.
Admittedly not everyone can just sit and doing nothing. But some people can 'get' it and reached nirvana state or something

Dont get tempted copying those hardboiled campers on youtube video.
Just do and go to place you can enjoy and never push yourself because you are not paid to do this.

Near the Amber court.

Yeah there is always risk but I always keep my conscience not to try my luck too far.

But this one is free aircon 24hr

Genting is hit and miss. Usually no mosquito. But when it comes, nyamuk besar bas.

Alone. Second day at night my friend come bring rendang lol, then another one, then another. At the end there is 10 of us there
But anything work for me. Solo good, group also good.

Not really. Cars go pacak not too far away. this spot is like dominated by riders and we purposely make it hard to car to access.
If you see behind casino got sampah look like landfill where cars always camp, that's the reason why we die die defending this spot against car campers. Most of them are disgusting leaving trash behind like got servant cleaning after them or something.

Whatever you planned for, don't ever get Dash 125 like me. Crazy good FC, but bad seat, bad transmission, bad coverset. It was a fucking bad purchase.
Go for Honda Wave instead.


Must be Cameron. Here in genting its all wild and you will have to do 5 minute ride to go to nearest toilet.

Cook. Nothing beats piping hot rice.

4x4 also good, it lacks some 'hands on' experience like when doing bike, but it still gets you somewhere, that's all that matter.
The plus with 4x4 (or cars) is you have broad selection of gear at much cheaper price, example like that heavier, but reeeeallly good Coleman Darkroom tent.

I think ex5 is underpowered and will introduce some other safety issues when its fully loaded.. If you want to go moto route, get something 125-185cc.


Hard to say. The place I pacak is technically beyond genting's property line.
Ive heard cars got shooed away, but as bikers we never get harassed. I think its because bikers keep the spot clean compared to those car spot that looked like landfill.
Sometimes got this one uncle visit and chat with us. I dont know him but my friend say hes a a Genting's big guy

Got public toilet near petron, like 5 min ride. pee can just tembak deep into semak further back.
No shower la its cold af and plus you just doing solo and you are not going to smell that bad anyway.

yea. Not very far from my spot. But I think this section is better terraced compared to the spot where landslide happen if that makes me feel any better

Yea. Foreveralone nothing to do during raya haji.
My body already long expired to do hiking anymore, so just being able to pacak tent somewhere is good enough

kl got rain.
klang no rain even the forecast says its gonna rain

yea. I'm sure they don't have to go through all those trouble putting unsightly concrete if those capmers at least being civilized and brings back their own trash.

pretty much that.
I call it R&D - Rehat & Duduk

those banglas and pakis residing there are scarier

Most of them don't communicate in bm or English well as an individual. God knows what they have in their mind

no. Closest is rowdy mabok people that park on roadside making noise but I sked to tegur, later kena tikam not worth it.

No wonder la. But on plus side got paki eatery near KK that serves 🔥🔥🔥 curry. And its quite cheap too.

No its Japanese curry roux.


You can prepare this with preparation simpler than some instant noodles yet tastes amazingly good. Saute onion, simmer vegetables, add roux and chicken and done. Its a peak food tech.
(if you are muslim, just beware that there are 3 version; the box with full Japanese writings contains babi; and international version with english writings is made with vegetable oil; and box with indon "Kari Ala Jepang" is same as international, but with halal logo.






got many local groups on fb. just search camping, family camping, solo camping, solo rider camping.. all got its own puak
No need to follow others camping also, just observe other people's setup and ask some basic questions. Its very easy to get onboard.

Not fully. Its like "we pretend that we dont see anything if you are not making any trouble (but some did), but we could order you to leave right now at our discretion." something like that.

area petron

ayaa have some faith la. Malaysia is not that bad.
Sometimes there are noisy mabuk people that can't be reasoned with and its just wiser to keep distance and dont confront them.
But otherwise everyone just mutually want to have a good time after enduring 40min of pain in the ass climb in a dense fog.

Can't beat bike camp. Its a totally different feel yo
Once you try you never go back to 4 wheels.

likely katydids. Can easily hear 50m away.
Yea its hard to camp if you are light sleeper and nothing could change that. If you ever want to do it again, I suggest try rain camp (but not in a shitty leaky tent). Its hard not to fall asleep in that soothing raindrop sound.

Muat. Yang penting kena keep in mind barang semua packsize takleh lebih 50cm.



Binatang liar tu semua virgin concern je. Unless you are camping in Australian outback, once you got onboard and start doing this you will quickly will learn that the highway journey to campsite is 10x more perilous that the act of camping itself

Not to do dick measure contest, but moto camp is T20 of camp . If you start entering the rabbit hole you will find out that doing moto is magnitude more more expensive than going by car.
A single decent lightweight tent can easily cost more that the entire setup going by car or 4x4.

Time to try moto. last time I do car also. But that's really pale when compared to moto. Going by car feels like better just stay at home.

Try do moto camp, pacak at upper spot frequented by riders. Nobody will bother you as long you keep clean and manage your own trash.

Look at those car spot near petron all full with trash. So disgusting, its no wonder Genting management doesn't want cars to lepak there.

No, last time I went by car. But now I’m pretty much dead set on the bike - it’s an entirely different experience.
Plus, there are lots of off-road hidden gems that just aren’t accessible by anything other than a 4x4 or a kapcai.

Last time I frequently pacak solo at Fraser too. In that pine forest near taman lady gelimat someting

Then one day, my friend just casually told me in a conversation about how he is concerned if sked kena jumped by harimau kumbang in that Jalan Gap-Fraser climb.
that sentences somehow struck me and until now I sked to go solo.

Its personal preference. But for me petrol lamp (or any other incandescent) produces much better light quality spectrum even when compared with the best LED lanterns. So much so that I feel the weight and bulk worth it even in moto camp situation.
and it churns out hell lots of light for very low operating cost of rm1.5 /12hrs

Its built like tank too. can operate in rain and storm without any issues.

That glow outside is my lantern left running in the storm.

Id be lying if I say tak takut, but you exercise due diligence to avoid encounter.
if camp wild, must be alert with local news about animal sightings and paths.
or just simply don't camp at weird locations in the first place.

Contrary to common belief, bears are bigger risk than tigers. they can smell your presence downwind.
Don't ever cook or eat inside tent. You can't smell it, but the odor will linger for weeks in many subsequent camps, and bears could pick it up miles away.
