Day 1. Motorcycle Touring Sumatera | Jakarta - Krui (470KM) | Crime prone SEDAYU Forest

We're finally back on the road, yupe, me and my riding buddy Affacik had a chance of doing this road trip end of May 2021. This time we are exploring Sumatera's asphalt for about 3000KM from Jakarta to the Westernmost Point of Indonesia; KM 0 in Sabang. We are riding our most loved bikes, Affancik with his Royal Enfield Himalaya, and me with my Ducati Diavel Carbon.
In this trip, we got company from a friend of mine, Bro Haji Ivan from Pandeglang, and he ride his Ducati Multistrada.
Our Jakarta - Sabang route had a lot of story to tell, mainly are happy story; smooth road along the route (except when we're in North Sumatera Province), beautiful view of the beaches up to the varieties of food we had along the way. Indonesia is totally beautiful!.
For you guys who love to ride and never pay a visit to Aceh, this is highly recommended, Aceh had a stunning view while you enjoy terrific asphalt/infrastructure there, a very supporting component to its magnificent tourism spot. You should really try it yourself.
