We have a drama today hahahaha, the three of us (me, affancik and ivan} got separated one another on our way to the border of West and North Sumatera. But this experience brought us to a scenic route we didn't expect. According to fellow bikers, the route is not a common route from Padang toward North Sumatera, commonly route will go through Bukittinggi.
Ypue, today's route is from Pariaman, the through a area called Malampah to get back to the main Trans Sumatera Route, to Kota Nopan, Panyabungan, Padang Sidempuan and finally Sibolga.
While stopping for a hydration stop, Affancik the coffee lover told us that Panyabungan is well know as the producer of Mandheling coffee bean, from Panyabungan to the world! how cool.
The separation funny story to us is a story of the day today, in addition to the hotel we stayed is a bit old, and Affancik as well as Ivan had their hallucination before going to bed. But the later will become its own story later on.
Our route today is;

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.
