" Exploration "



Today i went to Kulim to explore new route for " Kulim MTB Jamboree " trek. Purpose of this morning activities was to get an overview of point of interest for photoshooting during Jamboree. 3 of us will try to cover stages for this event on 8th of March 2009. Stage 1, i would say its belongs to expert level because the difficulties is suck. I hate to climb the hills as my heart rate always beeping at higher side & pumping too much blood to support my oxygen to the whole body. So sorry guys, this stage 1 make me " sumpah seranah " to the organizer & you  have to climb and find a good spot for shooting. Nevermind...this is another challenge that i love to do....love so much outdoor photography...Ok .... i don't want to tell you more because i'm lacking of oxygen right now but still you can find below images of this trek jamboree exploration.

" Nervous Weekend "




Last Sunday, i was again on my bike trying to figure out my fitness limitation especially on the muscular area. This time, the distance almost triple from where i've trained over the past 3 weeks. It's seems a lot of calories will be burnt but depend how far i can move & pedaling forward. The destination is " Kg. Masjid " somewhere in Selama, Perak. Honestly, i never heard before & of course never been there too. But since i'm joining MKH ride, i knew what will happen to me..i'm not in their pace anymore. They are pedaling like a pro....while mine was so slow.....how wish i could do that...??!!


The starting point was as usual at Jabatan Hutan ; &  I was able riding in the peloton for the first 15 km....after that...it was a different story...I was number one from behind, with average speed 30 km/h..riding alone :-( How bad i am....I believe they were maintaining the speed almost 40 to 45 km/h. Nevermind....never ever give up..... " Aku buat muka tak malu ajer....kayuh sorang2 "

The relief part was a support car infront of me....heh ...that's very noble lifeline for me; otherwise, i won't come for cycling with MKH. I knew where my limitation are.....until i reached " Kg. Masjid " i've pedaling over 100 km alone. Time is precious almost 12:00 pm when i reached " Kg. Masjid " , the temperature itself i believe somewhere 36 degree celcius.  Since time is critical, i've decided to join Support Car together with Hadi (my relative) & Zul (my niece). After that, we drove heading toward to Pekan Selama to meet up  with Nizam & MKH riders. After lunch at Pekan Selama, i was on motorbike again with " Cik Lan ". There's a lot fun to be back with my " kamera " & portraying all the way back to Kulim. END of the day, it was priceless experience riding to " Kg. Masjid ".

" Lightning bold "

This time around something was not properly fitting my mood, i was thinking so many many things that sometimes disturbing my focus. Lately, my life trending seems to be moody based on current fact that I'm doing tasks & activities that i did not really focusing on to what extend i should achieved. Shame on me !!! I was supposed to learn from the previous experience over the past time which I believed a turning point in my whole life. I'm strucked with something that really burden.....felt like a time machine was never working....i'm lost in my own destination....feel empty & fragile. Am i beyond my own thinking or am i hundreds step backward of my limitation....? I'm tired right now ! Tired of being somebody......tired of everything...! I'm becoming a person who fear to his own shadows.......the black shadow which was always haunted every moments. What if in shorter time, i'll find myself in the afterlife without any goods that i should perform right now.....? Subahanallah..! Stressful periods long time ago has silenced me from the outer world, decisively protruded my elusions. Now on...i should keep on the good things in my mind. Hope is a Good things !
