Shell Advance Long Ride gives her peace of mind as it provides 17% more stability for longer oil life and reduced oil consumption with an extended 6,000-km drain interval. 

“Shell Advance Long Ride makes my life easier by making sure my bike is well-maintained.

(Shell Advance Long Ride ensures my bike stays in top shape. Every weekend, I ride with confidence, free from worries about potential issues on the road. It leaves me feeling refreshed and energized, with extra time to focus on my goals.)”

Breaking gender stereotypes, she finds inspiration in fearless lady riders who embrace long rides and foster unity in the diverse riding community.

Just go ahead, prepare yourself, and make sure your bike is always in top-notch condition so you can ride with absolute confidence and peace of mind.

Navigating the bustling city streets comes with its unique challenges. Despite the heavy traffic in the metro, Red Sweet Potato, an intrepid everyday city rider, turns to motorcycles as the ultimate solution for beating the gridlock. While maneuvering through crowded streets, he discovers hidden gems and unique spots within the city, with Intramuros being a personal favorite. 

Emphasizing the importance of proper motorcycle maintenance for an enjoyable and long-lasting ride, Red Sweet Potato chooses Shell Advance AX7 for its affordability and proven performance in his 15 years of riding experience. For him, choosing quality engine oil brands is crucial as neglecting maintenance can shorten a motorcycle's lifespan. Shell Advance AX7 makes rides smoother and faster, offering 36% better engine protection, keeping bike engines 33% cleaner and more powerful, and boosts fuel efficiency with an extra 3-km per liter of fuel.

Red Sweet Potato advises riders to prioritize safety, invest in quality safety gear, and keep their loved ones in mind when on the road. “Isipin nila yung uuwian nilang pamilya sa bahay na araw-araw naghihintay at nagdadasal na safe ang byahe sa motorsiklo. And of course, para sa mas kumpiyansang byahe na walang worries, mag-invest sa quality safety gears. Because when we know that every journey is safe, mas na-eenjoy natin ang araw-araw na pagmomotor kahit pagod dahil sa trapik. (Think about their family waiting at home every day, praying for a safe motorcycle journey. And of course, for a more confident and worry-free ride, invest in quality safety gear. Because when we know that every journey is safe, we can enjoy our everyday motorcycle rides even when tired due to traffic.)”
