Hello, I am a 41-year old male from Italy, planning my first bike ride in Asia. I have travelled around Southeast Asia a lot, speak Indonesian fluently and know Indonesian people and culture quite well (my wife is Javanese). I am looking for a male partner with enough time and patience for a thorough exploration of Java (and beyond, if time and visas allow). I am very flexible on when and where, 60-80 kms a day, enjoy an extra day in beautiful settings, hate trains and buses unless I have been stolen my bike. Please contact me if interested.

I am insanely jealous. I spent five weeks in Indonesia in 1995. It was probably the most beautiful place I had ever been.
I don't know if it's worth the divorce that it would require for me to join you, but I'll at least think about it 😉
Either way, I wish you a safe journey.
Oh, and two other things:
1) "Hey, Mister! Where you going??" 2) Ma'af. Bahasa Indonesia saya belum lancar!
Neil
