Million Mile Monday - Thank You Brothers!!!

Harley owners gathered at HD of Kuala Lumpur after office hours.

HOG Malaysia Chapter is supported the Million Mile Monday by organizing a short charity ride, by visiting one of our Harley owner member who suffering from brain tumor. Members started to gather at the HD of Kuala Lumpur Dealership right after the office hours despite the heavy downpour few hours earlier.



There were 36 bikes and 40 members turned up to support the program. After a short briefing, a spontaneous donation collection was made among the members to support our unfortunate member.

Million Mile Monday - What Malaysian Harley Owner will do on that day?

Dear Fellow Harley Owners,

The "Million Mile Monday" is here again! This coming 29 June 2009 will witness another history being created in the Harley Owners Group. Members around the world will band together in a singular challenge to log a cummulative five million riding miles by the day's end.

The inaugural "Million Mile Monday" organised last year was a resounding success, thus the goal has been increased for the ride this year.

This year, HOG Malaysia Chapter is calling all its members and Harley-Davidson owners to take part and ride and be part of this historical event! But we will do it the Malaysian style.


To accumulate the mileage, we will do a charity ride to visit one of our most senior Harley Owners in Malaysia, Pak M. Rajoli, a well-known Malaysia actor, who is currently fighting against brain tumor. Below is a picture of him.

Pak M. Rajoli were sleeping when i arrived at his house yesterday... tired maybe....

Catatan Perjalanan ke Burapa Bike Week 2009 - Part 5


Hari kedua, 14 Februari saya bangun awal. Program hari ini saya akan disertai oleh beberapa rakan Harley-Davidson dari Malaysia yang sampai agak lewat juga malam tadi kerana jadual penerbangan yang berlainan. Setelah bersiap, saya dan rakan-rakan berjalan-jalan sekitar hotel untuk bersarapan. Agak sukar sedikit untuk kami mencari warung atau restoran yang menjual kedai makan halal. Akhirnya, dek kerana lapar dan tak mahu membuang masa, kami bersarapan roti bersama sardin yang dibeli dari kedai 7 Eleven berhampiran hotel.


Pattaya Beach

Bandar Pattaya yang terletak di tepi pantai Pattaya sememangnya sentiasa dipenuhi oleh pelancong-pelancong asing dari serata dunia. Pantainya sungguh bersih serta dilengkapi dengan khemah-khemah untuk para pelancong bersantai. Setiap 20 meter di sepanjang pantai pula terdapat peniaga-peniaga minuman dan makanan yang bersedia melayan pelancong. Kami turut melawati beberapa tempat menarik di bandar Pattaya seperti Hard Rock Hotel, Pattaya kompleks dan bazar-bazar yang menjual pelbagai cenderamata dari negara Thailand. Harganya pula cukup murah berbanding tempat-tempat yang pernah saya lawati selama ini. Namun apa yang menariknya ketika kami berjalan-jalan, ada saja kumpulan motor-motor besar yang lalu lalang di bandar tersebut.

Pattaya Beach




Penat berjalan, kami singgah ke kedai urut untuk mengurut kaki dan badan. Perkhidmatan urut tradisional SiamThailand. Harganya juga cukup murah berbanding di Malaysia sememangnya terkenal dan antara industri produk pelancongan terutama di dengan kadar upah THB250 / RM25, kami dapat berurut selama 2 jam cukup untuk mengendurkan urant-urat yang lenguh dan kejang.

Kedai makan muslim di bandar Pattaya mudah didapati, cuma harganya yang sedikit mahal. Setelah makan dan puas berjalan-jalan di sekitar bandar Pattaya kami pulang semula ke hotel dan berehat sebelum bercadang untuk kembali semula ke tempat berlansungnya Burapa Bike Week.





Shopping Time...!!

Setelah berehat sepanjang petang di hotel, kami bergerak ke tapak Burapa Bike Week dengan menaiki motor. Dari simpang jalan utama ke tapak pameran kenderaan sudah mula banyak terutamanya kumpulan motor-motor. Masing-masing dengan patches atau vest kumpulan masing-masing, dari patches tersebut kami dapat tahu ada yang datang dari Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Esan, Surathani, Krabi dan tak kurang juga dari Malaysia, Singapura, Indonesia dan Hong Kong. Tak kira apa jenis motor dari Harley-Davidson, Yamaha, Honda, easyrider, superbike, touring, kapcai, kustom, klasik semuanya seakan menuju ke arah yang sama….. meriah, memang meriah….. keadaan lalulintas pula sudah mula sesak dan pengunjung semakin ramai menuju ke tapak Bike Week.





Kami tiba kira-kira 30 minit kemudian akibat kesesakan jalanraya. Tapak Bike Week sudah dipenuhi orang ramai. Laluan dua hala sudah menjadi satu hala. Malam ini malam kemuncak di mana semua wakil-wakil kumpulan motor yang datang ke Burapa Bike Week akan menerima cenderahati atau “Kunci Bandar Pattaya” dari penganjur Burapa MC. Malam ini juga segala keputusan pertandingan antaranya pertandingan motor kustom, motor cat tercantik, motor stok terbaik dan pelbagai pertandingan lain akan diumumkan. Di khemah Harley-Davidson Bangkok pula terdapat pelancaran model terbaru 2009 manakala di sebelahnya pula Yamaha turut memperkenalkan promosi model moto baru sempena Bike Week tersebut. Kami menyusuri setiap gerai untuk mencari pelbagai cenderamata dan barangan berkaitan motorsikal. Harga memang murah dan boleh tawar menawar sehingga kita puas hati barulah kita bayar.






Selain membeli belah barangan berkaitan motor dan aksesori, selalunya di Bike Week seperti inilah kita berkesempatan berkenalan dengan rakan-rakan baru dari kumpulan motor-motor yang lain. Saya turut berkesempatan bertemu dengan HOG Thailand Chapter, House of Pain MC Pattaya dan beberapa kelab motorsikal yang lain. Ketika inilah juga kami berkongsi cerita mengenai pengalaman bermotosikal di negara masing masing di samping bertukar-tukar cerderamata sesama kami. Selain itu juga, saya turut bertemu dengan pembina-pembina motor kustom yang datang ke Burapa Bike Week dan melihat hasil-hasil kreatif mereka.
