Nice! Thanks for sharing. My recent virgin trip to JB somehow my Cycliq never record the first part going into JB.
Hi. Do you have a saved route from Changi Airport to woodlands checkpoint? thanks
Hi, I do not have a route for that. For Changi Airport, ya are allowed to cycle via Park Connectors from T4 Hub and Spoke to Tanah Merah Coastal Rd (TMCR). The road from Changi Airport leads you to the expressway and no cycling is allowed on any expressways.
@@MervynChew thank you and appreciated
hi, can cyclist cycle on expressway in malaysia? or only on normal roads same like sg?
Hi, cyclists are allowed to cycle on the Malaysia highway as long as there is no signage of no cycling allowed (eg: PLUS Toll Hwy, Pasir Gudang Hwy, Johor-SG 2nd Link Hwy (E3), Desaru Hwy (E22)). As compared to SG, cycling at all expressways and tunnels are not allowed. Ya might wanna checkout the other cycling rules in Malaysia.

upon crossing the boarder. Do you need to bring your passport?
Yes, a passport is required for both sides of the border crossing. Thank you.
Do electric assisted bicycle allowed? Do we need to pay for cross the border?
I am not familiar with e-bike laws in Malaysia and the laws may vary from state to state. I recommend to refer to the authority's website.
@@MervynChew i mean in sg.
@@adamamirul1249 ic, ebikes are permitted on roads but not on footpaths and park connectors. I recommend reading the authorities website for more details as there are many other ebike rules such as speed limit, mandatory registration and LTA approved models. onemotoring.lta.gov.sg/content/onemotoring/home/buying/vehicle-types-and-registrations/PAB.html
@@MervynChew thanks bro 👍. Now I know it need to be registered first.
