Venue: Segong
Date: 5 June 2010
Start push off time: 1515
Cuaca: Panas awan berarak
Rider: 6

Ade rescheduled our ride from 1500 hour to 1430 hour, and I received the message around 1400 hour. I rushed myself getting ready, got all stuff gathered, and tossed all the bike gears into my white kelisa. Reached the push off point around 1455 hour. Seeing them all ready, waiting for me made me feeling blue for delaying the ride. Jari disusun mohon kemaafan...

2. The trail's condition is better than last three week, we really want to thank those who use their effort and time to clear all the fall tree, covering most of the pits with earth; made the overall trail safe and fun to ride. Peace y'all

3. I just couldn't stop myself laughing seeing our technical wizard falling from his bike. It was a hard-to-get opportunity to shot a beautiful la memorable moment like this.

5. Ade on Giant.

6. Jimi on Merida.

7. The gang from left; Jimi, Ade, Philip, Joseph, and Naz

8. When the riders start to clean their bike, it is a sign that the ride has reached the end.

River Safari Pedawan

2010-06-01T15:24:00.000+08:00

This event was held on 31 October last year..

The starting point is at Kpg. Danu and finished at Kpg Git, a total of approximately 26km in the Padawan area.

Cabaran yang paling susah dalam rakit merakit ni adalah ketika membawa rakit dari lokasi pengumpulan rakit ke tebingan sungai. Just imagine, the weight of the rakit, i believe more than 500 kilos. The length of the rakit was 25 feet, and the width was 3.5 feet. Nasib baik ada kawan yang sanggup membantu kami untuk mengangkat dan menurun rakit ke tebing sungai.

Kem Permai

2010-05-29T20:36:00.014+08:00

What: Jungle trekking with entrance fee RM5 to enter the premise

When: Friday, 28 May 2010

Where: Kem Permai, Santubong. (After Damai Puri Resort)

The plan was to check the trail whether it is ridable by mountain bike or not. It seems that the trail is too rocky and steep, most of the time you will have to carry your bike ( it's okay if you don't mind doing death marching almost all the way). It was designed for jungle trekking, not mountain biking. Maybe someone need to clear the trail to make it more doable to ride by mountain bike...nahhh I don't think it is allowed by the management of Kem Permai.

1. Interesting place to stay

3. An indirect shot.

4. Who cares...

5. The dorm

7. Can you see the downhill part at the end of the trail??

Cuaca: Mendung

Bilangan Rider: 6 org

1. Ekspedisi kali ini dimulakan di atas jalan bertar.

2. Memasuki kampung dan melepasi rumah-rumah penduduk tempatan. Jalan berbukit2, cukup untuk memanaskan badan sebelum memasuki offroad.

3. Offroad kali ini merupakan dirtroad/doubletrack yang sering digunakan oleh penduduk tempatan untuk ke kebun mereka.

4. Keadaan batu kerikil yang tidak kompak menyukarkan pendakian bukit ini.

6. Air hujan yang lebat menghakisi dirt road ini terutama di bahagian descent, Ade mengalami kemalangan di kawasan ini kerana termasuk kedalam lurah jalan yang terhasil dari hujan lebat. Tak sempat ambik gambar dia terbabas...

8. Keluar dari dirtroad, kami kembali ke jalan utama, dan terus menuju Kpg Krokong.

Segong

2010-04-21T23:44:00.012+08:00

Venue : Segong

Tarikh : 18 Mac 2010, Ahad

Masa : 1430

Cuaca : Panas dan berawan

Rider : 2 org

1. Kami singgah ke tempat riadah Jalan Sungai Adis /Buan.

2. Rehat sebentar ambil nafas. Jalan aspal, tetapi kontur jalan yang sering naik cukup melelahkan

4. Ingatkan free, rupanya ada bayaran masuk. Kemudahan juga disediakan untuk pengunjung yang ingin bermalam dan berkayak.

7. Pertandingan MTB juga pernah dianjurkan di trek ini. Boleh dikatakan trek ini mempunyai ciri-ciri rut yang lengkap bagi peminat sepeda lasak.

8. Keseluruhan medan trek ini adalah berkontur landai, flat. Terdapat juga bukit yang perlu di climb, curam tapi boleh di konker. Banyak descent yang sangat miring dan licin, oleh itu jangan tak pakai safety.

9. Akar-akar pokok menjalar sepanjang singletrack Segong, section ini memang sesuai kalau nak train skill dan keseimbangan ketika ride. Pastikan angin tayar cukup, kalau tidak kaboooom..

10. Ade menanjak dengan perlahan dan cermat untuk melepasi bahagian bump ini. Permukaan tanah yang gembur dan poros menyebabkan sukar untuk melepasi benda2 technical mcm ni. Tapi takpe, kalau fail, ulang sampai lepas..

11.

12.

13. Section ini cukup curam, mmg betul betul curam. But don't let the mind take over your body, in mountain biking, SOMETIMES, you have to let your gut to lead you,

14. Because, after you force yourself to overcome your fear, there will be some harmonious payoff ready for you. For us that day, we get to soak ourselves in a big, clear and refreshing river.

15. Zoom sikit muka hero melaya ni..

16. Macamlah terrer sangat mamat ni..

Padangpan 11 April 2010

2010-04-12T19:41:00.021+08:00

Aku memang malas nak update blog

Nak upload gambar pun malas.

Tapi sebab hard disk laptop aku makin sarat, aku pun upload gambar ni, kalau hard disk aku berkapasiti beratus-ratus gig, alamatnya tahun depan baru aku tergerak nak upload.

Trail Padangpan ni memang mencabar endurance diri. Kalau rider tak cukup nafas, memang patut surrender pada 1/3 permulaan trek. Tapi yang tak best tentang trek ini adalah kekurangan singletrack dan tidak cukup mencabar dari segi technical.. Kalau Ade, pejam mata pun boleh gohead.

Ade mengetuai ride kali ini

Pada permulaan trail memang le mudah, tak keluar peluh pun. Bermula dengan jalan yang berpasir yang beratus meter panjangnya. Sepertigaan rut ini diselang seli dengan cabaran menaik dan menurun, namun semuanya dapat dilepasi, stamina masih banyak..

Si Winson yang kali pertama ride di Padangpan.

Teruskan Winson, dekat nak sampai dah

Kemudian dirt road menunggu para rider. Permukaan berbatu kasar yang diselang seli dengan descent dan ascent benar benar mencabar keupayaan betis dan jantung.

Ade mengecek pressure tayar. Keras dah tuuu..

Terdapat anak2 sungai kecil yang perlu diredah sepanjang 1/3 trail.

Aku sempat posing dengan basikal Ade.

We have to enter this singletrack before reaching the "climbing all the way trail". Singletrack ini tak lah panjang, lebih kurang 50m ride, kami terpaksa menolak sepeda kami kerana track yang agak steep dan licin.

Selepas menolak sepeda lebih kurang 10 minit, kami kembali meredah dirt road yang hampir keseluruhan medannya berkontur menaik.

Winson dan Ade tolak basikal atas jambatan yang macam nak runtuh. Safety first bro.

Teruskan raja bukit

Laju pakcik, laju laju pakcik

The most crucial skill in mountain biking, tolak basikal

Sampai di puncak, kami sempat mengambil gambar kenangan, berehat sekejap dan terus menerus perjalanan downhill sepanjang lebih kurang 2km hingga ke titik start.

Kampung Baki Lama (Ensengei)

2010-04-10T18:35:00.011+08:00

Sunday,4th April 2008

Finding the way into Kampung Baki was quite confusing because there ws no signboard for the place, but the matter solved by asking the local.

There was no problem during the ride because it was our second time riding the track.

Ade and I were the Penunjuk Jalan.

Can't see the singletrack because of the bushes. The trail's surface consist more declivious than ascent line.

Going deeper into the jungle, you will find more nice singletrack and pretty incredible trails.

You can nail almost all the trail but some, you do it by old fashion way.

From here, the trail become wider and easier.

We finish the loop within 3 hours.

Next ride?

Padangpan...?

Padangpan 21st March 1010

2010-03-25T22:01:00.017+08:00

Sunday, 21st March 2010

Ade,Awek, Bab and I drove to Padangpan after getting the bike into the van. We managed to take our breakfast in the process. We met with Melvin and Co. at a shop in Kampung PadangPan, prepared the bikes and finished off the loop with them before heading back using the downhill route. We logged in about 3 hours of good riding before heading back to the cars at the shop's parking lot. Good times with a lot of people on the bike yesterday, road and mountain.

Biking is not too bad, just have to stand up for the technical stuff.

More descend and ascend to go.

Bab just couldn't take the heat. Nearly gave up riding for that day.

The only way to encourage him to ride is to let him half naked riding in the sunny hot day .

Some part is too technically hard, left us no choice but to push our bike.

So hot...

Big grin on the face after conquering the ascending part of Padang pan. Yup, we were having great time.

True sign of a great descent.

But not all descent all the way..

It sure was a fun ride for everyone.

Rider of the month.

KBH

2010-03-16T20:18:00.026+08:00

Sunday, 14th March 2010

This trip was organized by a group called KBH( Kuching Bike Hash). To be a member, you pay RM50, if you have too much money to waste, you can pay RM 10 each time you follow them.

Wallahow we kind of surprised when some guy approached us and wanted us to pay rm 20(for 2), so expensive loh, but consider oklah because you get to know new trail and free flow of drinking water.

I asked him "why so expensive ha?"

he answered " dont worry, we dont cheat your money, your money will go to charity."

Good. Now with cycling, we can do charity beside building our calf muscle..

The Idea

A bike hash, or "bash" is a bunch of people ("bashers" or "hounds") cycling around in an area (typically communal forests, parks, countryside trails, rubber estate here in Malaysia) following bits of paper (like "paper trail") that has been laid earlier by the "hare". To make things more exciting, the paper trail includes a system of check-points ("checks") and false trails ("falsies"). A bit like treasure hunt meets orienteering, if you like, with a touch of sado-masochism thrown in every now and then. The checks and falsies also serve to keep the group more or less together in the estate and so making the hare's job of making sure all the hounds stay "found" easier.

So, that summed how the ride goes..

Below shots were taken by my camera.

Tired of waiting

Hungry..

We had to lift our bike because we had to walk on bamboo bridge. Most part of the track consist of bamboo bridge.( around 15 of them) Hats up to those who can ride their bike on the bamboo bridge.

The following pictures are courtesy from Kuching Bike Hash.

This guy went around collect money from the poor.. Just kiddinglah..

The trip scheduled to start on 3.00 pm, but delayed to 3.30pm because there were bikers who arrived late to the meeting point.

The first challenge was to climb this steep single lane tar road.

Going in to taste the dirt and mud

Nice singletrack but unfortunately some part of track cannot be ride on the bike

Dining points for your eyes.. Brilliant scenery.. Local Chicks wearing Sarung Batik..

Mountain biking: Sungai Terjun

2010-02-15T18:40:00.011+08:00

Monday, 14 February 2010

We started our trip quite early. At first, we planned to go up to Kuil Tambi, but then Ade suggested to try new trail nearby.

According to a villager, just going straight, follow the single trail, we will find a small waterfall, they refer that waterfall as Sungai Terjun.

Small stream along the trail.

As usual, Mr Technical lead the way.

Most of the trail are made up from steep hill, almost very impossible for us to climb by using our mountain bike. But we wouldn't know if we don't try..

It needs skill and stamina to go through a track like this.

Do you have what it takes to go down this slope?

Ade showed us why he is the Technical Wizard

Again, he proved it to us what it takes to own the title. Guts and balls. BIG balls.

Nice haaa..

Kemalangan di tapak

Cukup pilu ye kalau kita tengok kereta kita dilanggar, sudahlah kena langgar, lagi kena pulak buat laporan kepada polis, bukan itu saja, sementara kenderaan kita tu diperbaiki terpaksa kita cari kenderaan lain untuk ke tempat kerja.

Sebab tu aku cukup kesian dengan Danny dan Wenna. Mereka ni sama kerja di tempat kerja aku.

Mujurlah tiada siapa yang tercedera. Itu yang paling penting.

Kereta Iswara yang di tengah tu milik Wenna, van biru milik Danny. Aku tak tau siapa pemilik motorsikal merah tu dan yang lori hijau tu milik sub kontraktor kami.

Aku pun malas dah nak fikir, banyak kali dah aku naik ke bukit Mike ni, tapi masih jugak aku rasa penat, semput, asma dll. Terkemut kemut jobo ku nait ke atas. Memang unta betul lah bukit ni. Cubalah orang yang buat trail rajin sikit, trim kan bukit tu sungguh sungguh.. Lain kali aku nak syor dgn AJK Matang, bawa cangkul, buang itu tanah bukit, kesianlah itu tambi naik jalan kaki jumpa dia punya tuhan.. Banyak letih la woi.. Kitakan satu Malaysia.

Memang patut pun ringan, tayar tak pasang lagi.. Tapi daya ketahanan kau memang ada kelas tersendiri. Wei, kau makan apa? Hah? Urut kaki jer..

Oi cepat lah oi.. mentang-mentanglah betis macam kuda

Tempat ni memang banyak trek yang mencabar, bagi pakar teknikal ini pulak, memang pantang tengok trek bebukit dan bebatu..

Mountain Biking: Indian Temple Part 2

2010-01-25T12:29:00.037+08:00

Sunday, January 24, 2010.

One of the best trail to train endurance and physical resilience is Indian Temple trail at Matang. The trail consist of 2km uphill is not an easy task even for a veteran like Cikgu Sudirman.

Other reason on why this trail is one of the best trail at Kuching is we could see nice scenery of Kuching city from the temple at the end of the track.

Our experience of 2km downhill ride on the way return to our car were fantastic.

We started our ride around 3 pm. The weather was very hot. Didn't hope for the rain though.

Mr Ade aka Technical Wizard

I borrowed this Fuji bike from Mr Ade.

It looks like your calf got some beautiful muscle now

Some of the riders couldn't wait to try the downhill. I don't think they start from the top, do you think so, Mr Ade?

For your information, this rider is Mr Ah An.

This guy won the title 'Jumper of the day'

After winning the title, he threw himself into the small drain

Bike porn: this bike owned by Cikgu Sudirman: the Endurance Junkie

Mr Technical lead our our way

Followed by Mr Confident

Then, followed by Mr Steady

There was nothing that can slow down his speed, accept a guy that we called the F4(the fagot 4)

Right now Mr Steady's speed reach the highway speed limit

Big grin on his face showed us that he was happy with his performance on that day

Mountain Biking: Kampung Baki

2010-01-24T22:59:00.025+08:00

Sunday, January 17, 2010.

Cikgu Sudirman invited us to try a track at Kampung Baki, we heard several comments about this route; nice, fun, steady; they said.. This time, we brought Mr Awang Aswari with us, this is the first time he do the bikepacking.

The sky was covered by the dark cloud, promising us with heavy rain ahead. But it did not demoralized our 'desire' to explore this route. Waisehhhh!!

Oh ya, during the journey, we were identified as the PETRA JAYA gang. kuuahhaaahahaha..

The Technical Wizard

Encik Bab rode with confident on the tarmac section.

Again, with style and elegant, he rode faster than anyone ( only on the tarmac)

Thetrail starts with hilly and loose gravel single track

It most interesting part begun when we started the jungle part of the route

Most of the route were muddy but rideable single track

Some of the section required us to walk with our bike.

Introducing Mr Awang Aswari, he lost his virgin in this jungle.

Mr Awang Aswari with Mr Bab (left).

Hike a bike.

Mr Awang Aswari tried to control himself before he fell to the side.

One of the Otai

Most of the riders didn't have the ball to ride down this hill because of the slippery road condition. But for Mr Ade and some of the otai, it was a piece of cake. Unfortunately, Mr Awang Aswari, he chose to use the other shortcut, which resulted, a broken finger, really not worth it man!!!

After I took this shot, the rain poured heavily, I had to keep my camera in the bag. Don't dare to take picture when it is raining. Many great scene and action could not be captured because of the heavy rainfall.

Maybe I should buy a weatherproof camera.

The rain stopped, times to take some action.

Welcome to Kampung Baki Tajung

To Mr Awang Aswari, we will always welcome you to join us in the next expedition.

My second ride up to Kuil Tambi with Ade and Bab in a little over 2 hours. The whole track is 2km up to Kuil Tambi. It was completely different from riding from the bottom up Kuil Tambi via Red bridge (only because of the distance, so less energy). Here are some pictures:

Trip ke Red Bridge 9 Mei 2009

2009-06-12T11:40:00.003+08:00

Lelah memang lelah, tapi best.. Itulah komen Encik Bab pada hari bersejarah itu.

Ia merupakan hari pertama beliau mengharungi cabaran “offroad’ yang dianjurkan oleh kawan-kawan beliau, Abang Mashdynzil (28 tahun) dan Ade Fairuz Marzuki (28 tahun).

Walaupun cuaca waktu itu amat panas, cukup panas ibarat matahari berada seinci di atas kepala, tidak memutuskan semangat Encik Bab untuk menghabiskan cabaran offroad tersebut. Walaubagaimanapun banyak dugaan yang berlaku sebelum mereka mula mengayuh, antaranya:

Cermin mata hitam cocoon yang berharga rm400 tertinggal di rumah menyebabkan drebar terpaksa patah balik ke rumah. Ini menyebabkan dia terlambat sehingga Encik Bab menjangka trip ke Red Bridge dibatalkan.
Ketika mereka sampai ke destinasi (Stage 2), bledar tayar Encik Bab tiba-tiba pecah, menyebabkan mereka terpaksa balik ke Matang Jaya untuk menukar bledar basikal.
Disk brake belakang basikal Encik Mash tidak berfungsi dengan memuaskan. Tapi disebabkan semangat kayuh yang tinggi dan motivasi yang diberikan oleh kawan-kawannya, beliau teruskan juga ekspidisi ini sungguhpun amat berbahaya.

Dengan berbekalkan 2 ikat pisang, 5 tin air Redbull dan berbotol-botol air, mereka memulakan aktiviti sihat mereka, dan habiskan perjalanan mereka selama 2 jam.

Posing lok.. kelak dah lelah sikpat senyum gik

Dalam cemin mata ada cemin lagik

Lelah..

Angkat basikal

Sakit pinggang gua wei!!

Puas hati keluar peluh mcm tok

Matang Stage 2 17th May 2009

2009-05-19T07:29:00.003+08:00

We were very determined to conquer the Mike hill that day. But after going up one steep hill we had to give up. So we changed our planned to Matang Stage 2.

Bab, your back is very nice haa, no wonder he she like you..

Aiyo.. I think we have to change our route la…

Aiya, you weakling!!! We can do it with our eyes closed..

Why don’t you go to wisma and play guitar heroes…

Whatever man, I just can’t do it today, last night I ~~buang air~~ do ‘it’ many time..

Hehehe, I don’t have any problem, I can go up to the hindu temple anytime..

Ohhmmm, Ohmmmm, Ohmmmm.. Welcome to the new hindu temple.. the old one is another 2 kilometer up the hill

I think better we go to Matang Stage 2. I’m already tired after one hill..

Matang Stage 2, here we go… Let me show you my hidden Chakra

This track is nothing when compare to Bau
