Just like the title, what a week... and what "not so action packed" weekend rides

I totally missed out the week before. The truth to the mater... I was "marooned " to nanny jobs as the missus went outstation off to a "hunting trip" over the weekend. That limited my mobility to Sg Long route and area nearby the nest.

The prologue:

There wasn't much excitement (Cycling) last weekend even tough Monday was a holiday. For me it's was primarily the gloomy condition most of the time except for Sunday.

Did a "baisa" Sungai Long on Saturday morning with Saipol and Shamsul (though the road was mostly wet). On Sunday Saipol and I cycled through Sungai Long in the afternoon, we skipped the morning ride due to "domestic" matters. We started at around 6.00PM and reached home at 7.15PM.

The afternoon ride was not that bad. Traffic was okay and the heat was bearable. It was a bit windy at Sg Long's peak but nothing like the Lekas Hell.

Riders: Bro Zack, Zaha, Cikgu Sham & Faizol

Seperti yang dirancang, LTdGP telah dibuat pada 2 Oktober 2008. Sekitar 7.00am cuaca tak memberangsangkan. Sepanjang perjalan ke RV Point hujan rintik-rintik tapi Alhamdulillah tak lebat.

Bro Zack yang pertama sampai dan diikuti selainnya. Kami start warm-up ride dari Sg. Tekala samapai ke kaki bukit Genting Peres.

Kayuhan ke Genting Peres memang best sebab keluar peluh macam biji jagung dan kayuhan balik dari Peres ke RV Point di selangi dengan adegan Attack- mengAttack.

Road to Kuala Kelawang: Pemandangan yang cantik, tapi masyarakat kita masih tak menghargai kecantikan alam ciptaan Tuhan, sampah sarap dibuang merata-rata tempat. Menyedihkan....
