Day 6 Cycle to Betong Thailand
Cycle to Betong on Day 6 is a big deal for me, and for us. I have not even driven into Thailand before!
You may follow our Malaysia East Coast adventures on our blog, starting from Kuantan.

Our custom Google Map (https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mi...) and itinerary:
Day 0 - Van to Kuantan
Day 1 -125km Kuantan to Dungan
Day 2 - 76km Dungan to Kuala Terengganu
Day 3 - 160km Kuala Terengganu to Kota Bahru
Day 4 - 90km Kota Bahru to Jeli
Day 5 - 121km Jeli to Gerik (via Titiwangsa mountain)
*Day 6 - 55km Gerik to Betong (one segment steeper than Titiwangsa)
Day 7 - Betong (tuk tuk to Skywalk)
Day 8 - 106km Betong to Georgetown
Day 9 - Penang RI (Round Island)
Day 10 - 10 hours coach to SG (or Larkin)
Day 11 - Reach SG
First, we need to clear the slops , 22km after Gerik.
Although peak at 426m, but one or two segments are steeper than Titiwangsa's!
Not ashamed to admit that I had to walk at least twice.
Imagine our jubilation when our bikepacking adventure brought us through Thailand Customs (Yala). 2 nights in Betong would be our recovery stop.
And Betong is packed full with attractions and food for Tourists. We will definitely need some tender loving massage on our legs.
