A great long ride this morning with legendary Team Wayang 🎬
Thanks @nigellims for inviting me to join this ride. A 115km Course (Ara - Dragonback - Fruit Valley - Kundang - Denai Alam - Ara) with an elevation gain of about 700m.
Woke up at 4.30am this morning. Get everything sorted out (2 half-boiled eggs, banana, Mitoceps @mitocepsmalaysia ) and then rode there from Eco City here at 5.10am. Clocked 18km and reached there before 6am.
Decided to cycle around the area as the meeting time is 6.15am. Roll out at 6.30am. Ended up with a 26km warm up ride in total before the main course.
First time ride using the dragonback route, and it consists of a few rolling hills! It was challenging but I love it. See the hills, and charge through it. This time I rode it with cleat shoe, and that pedal pulling motion help damn a lot!
Had breakfast (wantan mee with curry chicken and bread toast and cham) at Taman Sulu Sulaiman at 9.40am (55km point: 60km left).
Overall the route is quite good, although there were quite a number of potholes but rideable. Saw a lot a lot of cyclist riding here and there too! The Cyclists population are really huge now!
We had some group photos throughout the journey and the best one at a fruit juice stall near the tasik biru. Had guava fruit and mango juice when there were 30km to go!
Refuel and head back! The view of heading back at Bandar Saujana are so beautiful (development stage). Wide roads, not many car, got to see the rainbow bridge as well where lots of people took photo there).
The last stretch after passing by the subang airport is where the final war begin! Thanks for the spark, the push, the fight, the chase, the encouragements, the cheers of giving your best by the teammates when you overtook them. Love it. Surge the last stretch and happy to clock an average of 38.1kph!
Happy to be back in one piece, without falling from the bike on cleat shoes. Glad to meet so many new friends as well!
It was a really great to ride in a group and glad that I am able to follow them throughout the ride, and thanks for "Kasi chance".
Thanks to Sham and Danny for sending me home after the long ride.
