Sunday 22/3/09 Starting at 8:00AM .. Hari ni my ride is " Balik Kampung Ride". I started at Bandar Putra Bertam, upon sending Asyraf for his Akademi Bolasepak....( I would like him to play football well, but, it does not seemed that way. Now nak sepak bola pun tak begitu cekap lagi, maybe I would have to encourage him to cycle instead ). From BPB, I masuk Bertam Indah, until I join the main road to SP. Wah, there were alot of people cycling today. At the BI junction, I saw a group of roadies ( do not know from where ), but, I dared not join them as I am just a beginner, while those people in that group looked very "professional" already, so, I just followed them. Near Kpg. Datuk, KB, jumpa another group roadies coming from the opposite side. Kita pun cuba berbasa basi angkat la tangan, suddenly, dengar " Hoi Pak Ndak, Hang nak pi mana?"..Alamak rupa-rupanya Ali Batu Lintang ada dalam group tu......Anyway, aku teruskan perjalanan, masuk ikut Bumbung Lima, ride sampai Teluk Manan ( untuk yang tak tau, kpg aku ni dalam qaryah Pmtg. Bendahari..kalau tak tau jugak lantak ler...).
Lepas minum lebih kurang kat Kedai Abang aku ( sekali Mak aku pun ada situ la.), salam dengan mak aku dan chow, this time ikut jalan lain pulak....berenti di SMK Pmtg. Tok Labu tengok bola 9 a-side..jumpa ramai orang baru patah balik kayuh dari Pantai Merdeka rupanya..aku pun follow dari jauh, ikut masuk jalan Lahar Kepar, sekali, jumpa satu mamat tadi dah slow down ( rupanya this Chinese guy is from Sg. Dua )...lepas sembang sikit, aku overtake dia....now I started to feel the 'joy" of cycling..pain on my B%@*&T la pulak, wah really sakit lor...sampai di KB, aku ikut balik Jln BI, bila nak lintas highway tu ada la skit "climbing"..Fuh lepas lebih dua jam kayuh ( dan rehat..) peha aku dua-dua belah dah rasa nak cramp dah.....tapi nasib baik pengalaman dari dok main bola dulu membolehkan aku kontrol skit..maka tak jadi la cramp tu overtake aku...Bila sampai ke BPB, total travelling time aku ialah 2 jam 50 minit....jalan pun rasa mengengkang wo! Jadi hari ni aku kayuh +/- 35KM saja, tapi dapat rasa satu penglaman yang hebat la.......That is the joy of cycling although my bump hurt like crazy.
