Starvation pushed us to attempt the remaining 9km 12-14% climb towards the clock tower, praying that they have decent nasi lemak, roti canai & teh tarik. Another hour of climbing surrounded by peaceful climate got us to the best breakfast of the day.
We rolled back down to the gap at half pass 12. Azahari completed a crash episode when he skidded from a mossy tarmac at one of the sharp turnings & banged himself on the sidewall. No injury recorded except for a punctured front tyre.
The journey back to KKB was attempted with a fast winding descent against the cold air & wind at some stretches. Ride was fun, enjoyable, good work out, nice crowd, nice weather. I give it 5/5.
Mac brought us a disturbing news at the carpark about a fellow cyclist who was missing during his first triathlon in PD this morning. It was later confirmed from friends that he was drowned during the swim leg. Yep, later that I realised arwah Zubir was that senior malay chap rode together with Azahari & me during PCC Sunday ride to Janda Baik.
