Diari Kayuh Seorang Macik
Melalui fesbuk macik terbaca ada geng macik yg merancang nak kayuh ke PD. apa yg sangat2 menarik perhatian macik selain destinasi ia lah route yg amat lah lain dr yg lain - ia melibatkan a boatride & a ferry crossing, sesuatu yg macik belum pernah cuba!! so tanpa segan silu macik telah meng'invite' diri macik utk mengikuti kayuhan group kawan macik tu... sibaek la mereka semua gentleman2 belaka dan sanggup menerima kehadiran seorang 'aunty' hehehehe. u're the best OPs, thank you :))
Cycling Old Puteras - they were kind enough to let me gatecrash their party lol
Memandangkan kami asyik bergambar je sepanjang kayuhan ini, maka lets just let the pics do the talking shall we ;))
Kayuhan OPs - Bangi/PD/Bangi 2013
The Route - 130+ km in total
The Beginning
Kami ramai2 berkumpul di wisma unikeb, ukm bangi and macik agak lega bila akhirnya mendapati ramai jugak la muka2 yg macik kenal sbenarnya :))
Starting point - Wisma Unikeb, Bangi
Doa sbelum kayuhan
The Ride & Pitstops
Secara keseluruhan route yg kami lalui agak sibuk dengan lalu lintas terutama di area bukit pelandok. ini bermakna rider sekurang2 mesti la dah biasa mengendali diri bersama traffic, tak kira besar (lori) atau kecik (motosikal).
Here we go gang weeeeehoooooo
First pitstop @ Medan Selera Sepang
Taking a breather after the attack on bukit pelanduk
Telok kemang... almost but not quite there
Original site of the FMC (1953)
Taz Mobile - support car terbaik ;))
Destinasi utama - Port Dickson Golf & Country Club
PDGCC, si rusa...... a golfer's retreat but the food is great as well ;p
Finally PDGCC.... and lunch!!!!
Cooling down before making way for food
Scrumptious banana leaf lunch
Good food & good company... this is the life peeps
Kewajipan yg pasti
Before leaving, the mandatory pic by the beach
The Boat Ride
Jeti
kuala lukut besar, negeri sembilan yang fofular dan menjadi tumpuan para2 peminat ikan & kaki2 pancing tanahair lol.
The excitement of a boatride... with our 'babies' lol
Loading up precious cargo
Thats where we're all headed
Its our turn to cross
Boatride done, now to unload
We made it peeps... and we didnt get wet ;p
The Ferry Crossing
The
mini ferry service across sg sepang besar connecting bukit pelandok in negeri sembilan & sg pelek in selangor.
Waiting for the ferry
Queueing up with the locals
And onto the ferry we all go
Tizzy & me.. our first ferry crossing together
Safe & sound over river sepang
The Ending
The last leg back was done in hot weather and when u factor in a full stomach, it gets to be pretty challenging lol. there were a few of us who didnt feel good enough to continue, and luckily we had the best support car on the planet - the Taz Mobile!! another factor to consider, bila membuat kayuhan yg jauh, make sure ada support car untuk membantu ;)
Answering nature's call
Kalau bermasalah tak perlu teruskan kayuhan.. better safe than sorry
Last rider in, almost dusk
We made it, from 7am to 7pm... an epic ride indeed
In conclusion, boleh di kategorikan sebagai kayuhan amat BEST!!!!! u must try it ;)) My only regret - macik tak perasan melaka (lubok cina) was just a couple of miles away. kalau di teruskan i'd have crossed another border.
Next ride - MELAKA!!!
Detail Kayuhan:
Total distance - 130+km
Total Time - almost 12 hours (termasuk pitstops, major breaks and mini breaks but luckily no jailbreaks lol)
Weather - cuaca yg baik tp panassssss.
Route - Unikeb Bangi, Bukit Pelanduk, PDGCC, boatride Jeti Kuala Lukut, feri Sg Sepang and back
Rating - doable for santai riders but must be able to handle single carriageway traffic, quite heavy at some points.
