We can all improve our riding and driving skills, right? But when it comes to really understanding the limits of performance, then it’s worth listening to what KK Wong has to say. He’s a certified BMW Motorrad, BMW M, and MINI Instructor, so he knows what he’s talking about.

He’s also a product trainer so gets to ride all the latest bikes and gear, so he can teach the rest of us all about what it can do and why it’s so good. When he’s not ‘working’, KK loves to explore new places by bike, so we caught up with him in Kuala Lumpur for an inspiring chat about the wonderful world of Wong!

Miquel Silvestre gave up a successful career to travel the world on two wheels. Since quitting the rat race, he’s visited over 100 countries, including most of Africa, the entire Middle East and pretty much all the Americas, from Alaska to Patagonia. His real passion – to follow in the footsteps of the Spanish explorers from the past and recreate their journeys.

As a writer, he has published several novels, a play and lots of travel books. For the past seven years he has been producing and directing TV documentaries about motorcycle adventure, including the successful Diario de un Nómada series, now in its 12th season. What Miquel doesn’t know about adventure travel, ain’t worth knowing!
