LENGGENG - 091219

Got this SMS at 0625hrs - Gd morning, is th bus station at plaza semenyih sentral, i couldnt open the link that you sent. That was from Andrew asking about the direction as he was a first timer for this ride.

Got another SMS at 0711hrs whilst I was drivng there - Am i at the right place? That was from Marina - another first timer n she was the first one to arrive.

Total riders today - 7
we hv Marina, Andrew, Yvonne, MBA, Yam, Cikin n me.

Total distance was 56km

Total calories burned was 1501kcal with average speed of 23.7kmph

Saw one person riding a RB on the opposite side of the road near Nottingham Uni in a yellow outfit. He is a famous cyclist who had cycled around the world but sad to say he didnt show a good example - WHY - not wearing a HELMET. I tot only bangla n indon jer yang tak pakai Helmet.


We always hv a policy of NO HELMET NO RIDE IN OUR GROUP. Better to be safe than sorry

CIKIN'S INAUGRAL RIDE - 091205

She did a few rides around Melawati last week n today is her inaugral long distance ride. With a few nice hills n beautiful scenery to boast about.

There were 6 of us today but Andrew mistakenly brought the MTB shoes instead of the RB shoes. So we had the luxury of a support car all the way to Tekala n back - courtesy of Yvonne Chum.:)






all ready to go .....0745HRS











We reached Tekala after 1hr 6mins of riding. Rest n refresh for 20mins there n we were on our way back.









too nice a scenery to miss
















take 5 at the junction
















back at the car park


















cikin was so happy ......






















she did FORTY ......






















SIX KM in 2hrs 10mins.














Not bad for a first timer. My first ride at Tekala was more than 3 hrs....cos kena tolak the bike you know where lar.

CERVELO S2 - Cervelo no:15

A friend of mine got his Brand new Cervelo S2 today. Perhaps he is buying it as a birthday present for himself :) The 2nd Cervelo S2 in our group of 15 cervelo owners. Wow..





Test-riding his cervelo on a trainer at Bike boutique

CIKIN - 091129

Cycled with Yam n Cikin around Melawati. Did 2 laps n hd breakfast with Faridah, Tati n Moira at our favorite tosai joint.


















Today was the second day Cikin cycled on her Merida HFS906 road bike. She is still not yet stable on the bike but manageable.






















Full of concentration .........

KGB - 091119

This morning the 3 of us decided to cycle to KGB - Kem Ghaffar Baba. It is about 5kms from Kampung Kemansah. The last time I rode this track was about 2 years ago. There are lot more 'penceroboh' hutan simpanan now as compare to 2 years ago.




Dzul taking a breather after a long climb




















Both Kamat n Dzul still can smile after another long n steep climb. I m already half dead.










At the top. You can see, in the back ground, the housing estate.

















After the ride we had tosai for breakfast n Dzul hd a new carbon fork n super slick tyres. He managed to reduce his MTB weight by another 1.4kg.

Now his Dorcus MTB weighs only 10.4kg jer. kalau dia tukar the wheelset with ZTR Olympic bolih reduce by another 500gm kut. :-) racun lagi
