" My Cameron Ride "


Hallo,

I've been enjoying so much fun for over the past 2 months... & doing a lot of fun activities has sunk those sad memories. Presently i'm enjoying my riding during weekend. It's help me balanced between social life & working. It was fun having a good riding on Sunday morning when most of us having a long dreams. Last weekend, accompanied by most of my senior cyclist, we went to Ipoh & overnight there & on the next morning we start the peloton from Simpang Pulai heading to Tapah. I was as usual trying to keep my best in the group with average speed 27kph & suddenly the speed is about to increase exponentially. Oh my god, at one point i was looking at my speedometer and displaying current speed......damn they're maintaining with average speed 42kph.........! For a while, my fitness dropped drastically & i lost my focus & dropped me at the tail of the peloton until one by one passing me with rapid cadence. From Simpang Pulai to Tapah takes you 40 km.

Since, my ultimate goal is to reach Cameron with my own pace, i put happiness in my journey. No tears , no hard feeling......perhaps i'm more motivated time by time. Climbing up the hill from Tapah to Ringlet almost takes you near about 3-4 hours & 54 km in front of you. It was speechless, unbelievable & so amazing having a fresh oxygen surrounded by rain forest make me so happy to be there & the most important " thank you Allah for giving this opportunity ".

Well i reached Ringlet safely at 13:30 & took my first lunch of the day after 6 hours on the bike.
The next 90 km, i was inside support car & took my D200 for nostalgic moments while most of senior cyclist battling with the heavy rain on the journey back from Brinchang-Tanah Rata-Kg.Raja to Simpang Pulai. Finally we reached safely at 19:00, the last group to be arrived at Check Point (Simpang Pulai).
