SMOKE UNDER WATER
Notes from the road by Jonny Cazzola ā A motorcycle adventure toĀ ride through 5 Indonesian islands to Komodo, find dragons & ride back.
You can prepare as much as possible, but with an old, tired looking bike that youād picked up 2 days before and customised that morning, there is always a moment of uncertainty and the fear that anything could go wrong at any point.

But we knew that if we didnāt press on we wouldnāt make our first ferry crossing from Padang Bai over to Lembar, delaying our trip through the 5 Indonesian islands by a day and jeopardising the success of our seemingly simple mission to:
Ride to Komodo, Find Dragons, & Ride Back.
