Bikers Week in Balok Beach

We didn't know about this event until one of the musicians who's performing there that night informed Papa.  So after Maghrib we drove there - about 20 minutes from home.  This was our first time there at night. We've been to this beach twice before, I think and both were during the day.


Zoey fell asleep in the car and she was very cranky when we woke her up.  She relented anyway and reluctantly walked with us towards the beach.  There were many cars and bikes (off course!).  These bikers also set up tents - more than 20.  Luckily the bikers in Malaysia are quite harmless and most of them are well-to-do family men - hence the affordability to buy big bikes.


The band was playing when we arrived.  The songs were mostly harmless contemporary rock songs.


Then we moved to the beach with this campfire burning.  The tent in the background held the band.

Zoey was still very cranky.







Those eating on the ground were some of the bikers. They had a barbecue party which many outsiders (like us) didn't join cos we're not invited.  Many (like us) were actually party crashers.


I was aiming for those girls at the back.  They looked kinda cool with hippies influence in the style of clothing.  So, Nina helped me by posing in front of them.


Then this metal band began performing and they were awesome.  People flocked to the front (including us - minus Zoey).  I think this band was called Madamme.


Yup! She was still upset and wasn't very cooperating.  She started making scenes and we had to leave early with an ice-cream treat on the way home - to keep her quiet.
