Route: Putrajaya-Cyberjaya
Distance: 53.38KM
Time on wheels: 2H10m
Riders: Najib, Zack, Zam (Kechik), Farizal, Suhaimi (MieTador), Romzi and Faizol
Bailed: Zaha, Saipol
Thank God it was a sunny Sunday morning. I was looking forward for this ride since Saturday was a now show due to the torrential downpour. Zam (Kechik), Zack, Najib and started from the Sungai Balak RVP (Rendezvous Point), while Suhaimi and Romzi waited for us at Petronas station near the LLM. Zaha bailed for an unknown reason, Saipol was “expected” and no status update from Farizal.
While passing through the Sungai Ramal flyover, we saw Farizal riding alone heading towards the Petronas Station from the Bandar Baru Bangi underpass. We rendezvous with Suhaimi and Romzi at the station. A few minutes later Bob who was on his way to the Rodalink Putrajaya launch ride stopped by for a quick chat before heading to the Diplomatic Precinct.
From the station we continued riding through the old road via IKRAM and UNITEN and took the flyover to the Serdang Hospital. From here we climbed the 1st Bukit Malang near the MARDI and Petronas depot and took the Cyberjaya exit before making a quick stop under the MAX highway flyover to regroup.
Bro Najib came all the way from JayBee. I hope you had a good ride brader |
We made another stop at the next MAX underpass to regroup. The weather was getting hotter by the minute hence we had to cut down our break time otherwise we’d riding at 36° degree Celsius under the searing Sun and open sky.
The Cyberjaya-Dengkil route had more flats and few nice descends enabling us to crank up to 40-43 Km/H up until the exit to Putrajaya and PICC. From here we had to climb a slightly steep elevated route heading towards Bandar Pinggiran Putra.
Even though the route was mostly flats but we went easy to save what ever gas we have left for the “Big Momma” or official known as Bukit Wawasan. The hill was not that bad but the rather long route and few ramps would worn us down by the time we started climbing the “Big Momma”.
As usual we’d be broken up into few smaller groups during the climb depending on the what’s left in the gas tank. The descend from the peak was quite nice but short followed by a minor elevation before the ramp near Alamanda.
From here we took the left exit heading towards the “turtle shape” roundabout and straight to the Diplomatic precinct.
The Rodalink Launch Ride
The were scores of blue jersey riders gathering up in front of the newly opened Rodalink outlet when we reached there. We parked our bikes at the sidewalk as the mass were getting ready to ride. It was almost midday but I guess it’d be fine to do a casual ride for 10Km under the searing sun.
When the road was cleared, we took a look into the outlet and boy oh boy some of us were like kids in a candy store. After a few minutes in the outlet we headed to the nearby Ali Bistro to chill and refuel.
We continued our way back home from here at around 11am through the Abu Bakar Baginda, Jalan Air Itam, Uniten before entering the SILK highway.
Overall it was a fulfilling ride. Thank you all for your participation. Good Ride everyone!
