Ride to Kuala Selangor via Flora Damansara

* at the market in Pasir Penambang. Carbo-loading. This claim by the seller as Teluk Intan Chee Cheong fun. We bought the char siew and also dunno what oredi. ok lar...
mr. Lim indulging away in his duck and char siew rice. The next shop is Bah Kut Teh.. Thinking about the bloody sun and 60km back... we forego the idea.
at the jetty at 7am.

We left 4.30 am fron flora damansara and choosing mostly flat as out training ground before the ipoh century ride in a month time. khoo said it was mostly flat so we bought his word.. u better be right man..!! ahaha..

I only slept less than two hours before that. Prior to that, Yoke Teng called to ask for direction at 1am plus.. so there goes my sleep.

quite lucky that i brought along the energizer race head light. there is few stretch which is total darkness along the way. that part we could only ride somewhere 15km/h ania... in case we fell into longkang or what. then as we reach Ijok, it was damn straight road all the way. It could be quite mental torture.. are we there yet? then finally after a long long ride we reach at the junction of asam jawa.. where we have to take the right turn to proceed to town and then to Pasir Penambang as our final destination.. where it is just after the bridge and the famous seafood village by the river is located lah.

I realize that wind is a big big obstacle when you are about to crank up from 25 kmh above.. the wissing sound of wind.. and really out a drag when the opposite large vehicle pass by.

I was trying to push 30 % of time to 2:00 per km pace... mr. lim was making such a wonderful progress. we really need the mileage to break the mental barrier. and just less than 5 weeks ahead only ania. Prior to that is the PD tri which I will be cycling.

We didnt stay long after the breakfast.. 8.30 we left after breakfast. Imagine how afraid we are of the sun. :P

Going back is a little jialat as we kinda deplete a bit our energy and the traffic is picking up as well. The dust and smoke.. woohoo.. Yet the agony to ride back fast put all of this behind.

So ride and ride and stop at sg buloh to rest at a malay stall. no tin water or 100 plus.. so only teh o ais limau.. damn...bloody sweet.. order a second cup kurang manis also manis sial..

So by 11.20 reached Alan's resident and the last hill slope really torturous. yet happy that we made it!!

Off to Kepong for massage after that.. due to the intensity of the ride. we both find later that our hand shaking due to the vibration from the ride. cin jialat..

Next maybe Sekinchan? :p
