The pair made it their mission to see the world... on their motorbike.

So, in 2018, Wong and Yik got on their bikes again and headed for China as a way to return to their roots. The couple mapped a “circular route” in China, starting in the east. “Basically, we went from east to north, west then south and back to the east. It was kind of like an elongated U-turn,” Wong explained. Some of the provinces and regions they passed include Guangxi in the south, and Guizhou and Yunnan in the south-west.

When it comes to travelling, Wong said that they always look forward to these three things the most: the scenery, the people and the food. An example of this is when one of the routes the couple took in the Yunnan province was faced with a landslide causing them to turn around and take a new path. A local biker then gave them a different route, a better one.
