“I have never driven a dirtbike before but want to do the Gunung Tunak trail with you if that is possible.” With this single, adventurous message, Wouter Lanser set the tone for an unforgettable journey in Lombok. What began as a simple inquiry soon unfolded into a story of curiosity, courage, and the thrill of first-time exploration on two wheels. This is the tale of Wouter and Tijn’s Gunung Tunak Dirt Bike Adventure—where new experiences, stunning landscapes, and warm hospitality came together for a perfect day in paradise.
The Spark of Adventure: A First-Time Dirt Bike Inquiry
It all started with a heartfelt message from Wouter, who, despite never having ridden a dirt bike before, was eager to take on the Gunung Tunak trail. His previous experience riding manual motorbikes on challenging roads in Indonesia and the Ha Giang Loop in Vietnam gave him the confidence to ask:
“I have never driven a dirtbike before but want to do the Gunung Tunak trail with you if that is possible. I have driven a lot of motorbike, also in Indonesia and bad roads on the Nusa islands, so I was wondering if it is still possible to do this trail with you?”
The Lombok Dirt Bike Tour team responded with encouragement and assurance, confirming that the adventure was open to riders of all backgrounds, as long as they had a spirit for discovery.

- Complete safety gear: helmet, goggles, jersey, pants, and boots

Wouter and Tijn, both from the Netherlands, were staying in Kuta and arranged for pickup at their accommodation. The team’s attention to detail and flexibility shone through as they coordinated the exact pickup location and timing, ensuring a seamless start to the day.
