Pres Ride 2007

Just after 1 week of labour, here comes another torment...the PCC Presidential Ride 2007. Venued at the same Kajang-Semenyih district. The endless climbs & fast rolling, some with technical bit never failed to pump up the adrenalines. Can't exactly clocked in the distance since my wornout cyclometer didn't record it precisely, but comparing with my fellow riding buddies it seemed like around 50km only.

The first loop seemed pretty fast, minus the jammed climbing at the first hill. The 2nd loop was smooth except for the almost empty tummy prior to reaching checkpoint 3 for some awesome watermelons & buns. Maybe Loop 3 was a bit edgy for a few of us, which includes me. Experienced chain-suck at the initial of every hill climb, just when I was about to spin the granny. Really sucked away the spirit & energy, especially when the unclipping went wrong...hahaha.

Loop 4 was amazingly presented with only one climb. Upon reaching the wide track road along the picnic spot, most of us concluded that it will end & only 8km more to the finish. However, the cycle back to the finish was somehow rather boring having to cycle through more bumpy palm estate road & winding tarmac within housing area. Buddies were all scattered finishing the ride at our own pace.

Going to be awhile before I start to do another long moutainbike ride after having fun & exhausting presidential ride this year. Penang Jamboree in 2 weeks time dah rasa macam tak excited & malas...hehehe.
