Super Ticket incoming...P2K Sunday Long Ride

Counting sleeps, another 2 sleeps, we will be standing at meeting point for the Super Ticket Ride #STR. 
Last Sunday was our long ride before STR where we clocked 166KM. Initial destination was Kuala Selangor but changed to Sg Tengi last minutes as the road to K. Selangor are bad. 


Somewhere... somewhere peloton is cruising at comfortable speed... 


Real hot sun! Enjoyed it. 




Loving the peloton !!! 


Sun. Bike. Ride. 





This part is 1 straight long boring road ! Btw, its potholes FREE ! loving the smooth surface! 



Was so hungry, yet just want simple meal to recharge refuel the body. This meal suddenly recall Sifu Terrence's strategy when we were training for Sundown Ultra 100KM, back in 2010/2011. We just had simple white rice with eggs and curry... oh, no chicken added back then. 
We at U-turn point clocked 75KM. 


The thick cream on hot nescafe... =.=''' 

Sg. Tengi, basically a very small town of Felda which located half way to Slim River from Batang Berjuntai. 


Video taken by Xiaomi Yi Action Sport Camera added!!!


What's needed to do is done. 
Next, Super Ticket. 
1 - 3 May 2015.

P2K Weekend KKB Ride - 06 April 2014.


Back to cycling. Back to my cycling group P2K. Rejoins back P2K for weekend ride. Last 2 weeks ago, we went to KKB. I been absent in cycling (outdoor real cycling on roadbike) for months, although im always consistent doing my RPM sessions in the gym. 


I'm really missing the feel of riding in peloton cruising 30km/hr to 40km/hr on highway! Somehow, i'm really terrible in hill climb and i got dropped at templer hills. I never able to catch up with the peloton. Sigh. That left 3 of us working together toward KKB from Rawang! 

Thank god, there's another group waiting. Waiting for us perhaps. From 3 riders, we now have about 8 to 9 riders in the peloton! It's become easier to ride ! We rides in peloton and each take turn to lead. I just love the feel of working together in peloton! 

There's huge turnout on that weekend. I dont know why. Perhaps its just some warming up for some who doing Ironman 70.3 Putrajaya last weekend. They went back via Ulu Yam route, while we another route went back the same route we came. 



#Selfie time while waiting for 1 female rider who having some sudden pains on her knee. Her speed dropped significantly. Hope she recover well. 


Blue or Gold for RM10.50 ? haha. We were refueling @ Shell station Rawang. Last stop before heading back to home. 


P2K riders were having their refuel. 

6 April 2014 - 131KM completed. 
Home - Uptown - Batu Cave - Rawang - KKB - Rawang - Kepong - Home.

Broga Loop - April 2012

Just start using Strava.... uploaded 1 activity on my cycling ride happened back in April 2012. I still can remember this ride well. Why? because it's infamous 120km Broga Loop which i never have thought how hard, how steep the hills were.

On that day, I'm following Kelvin Tan to joins Team Magnum at Tmn Billion Kajang and meet up with Pulley Tan. That's how we started our ride there...

Only after the ride, i only know about Broga loop. It's clockwise loop, cyclist called it Broga jatina... if clock-anti wise, it's called Broga Jantan... much harder !  


Basically two of us were some how "outsider" with the group as that was our first time joining ride with them. We went off from the peleton / group ride to enter Titi village to have our breakfast.

It's was wonderful wan tan mee breakfast ! 

After breakfast, we continue our ride... Two of us, we were working together, pulling each other, drafting behind each other and maintaining at 30km/hr+- speed... 

After Kuala Kelewang town, it's hills. bloody long climb of hills... each stroke of pedal were taxing under hot sun! When reached at top and start to downhills, it's awesome! managed to hit maximum speed of 70km/hr... The best thing was, just before the junction turn right, we stopped by to have watermelon! argh... feel like in heaven! 

Good time wont last for long. After the watermelon treat, we continue our ride. Still only two of us, even we managed to catch up some others cyclists, but they all "naik kereta". This hill they called it staircase hill... if im not wrong! so steep until my speed up only at 5-6km/hr, and it's after riding for some 80km... my legs were not fresh as beginning! Another big suffering! 

After the hills, remaining of the route were okay. no more steep hills. Rolling some hills and we managed to catch up other cyclists too! From there, we join back the group... We have 1 final stop at Broga town before we end our ride back at Tmn Billion. 

Its was good ride! 

End.
