waiting nasir after 2 minutes take off
Take off. An evening offroad ride a bit different from usual morning ride. I felt heavier and difficult to catch up with my breath. The rhythm imbalance and felt so exhausted. Following the regular trail crossing the dump site and we have reached at the entrance to Bukit Ramli. We diverted to right and climb to the top. The climb was not so hard and high but most of us struggling to conquer it. At this point riders split to two groups. One group had reached the peak but the other one halfway at the loop. Mubin ride down to check on the status of that group and come back a minute later.
hot and full stomach
“They couldn’t make it, they will go straight to Bukit Ramli first via chicken loop. We keep moving ahead and meet them there later”.
registrar as 003 downhill this trail
Few meters from the peak, we reached the point to downhill. This trail is totally fresh and untouched. Nor recorded riders had ride down this before. So, we the first pack to explore and enjoy it. Sanusi lead the down follow by Rashi, Rozani and another rider, me and Mubin. The untouched trail now had been touch by our tyres. The surface was easy but craved by water flow and fill with small to medium size rocks. All of us safely touched down to the ground. Continue the ride to second climbing point. Actually we had gone one round of the hill and back to the dump site entrance.
on the new trail
The second phase of the new trail begins here at the bank of the hill. The bank is unrideable, so we have to carry the bike to the top of the bank and start the ride from there. An easy climb. Few meters paddle up, my back tyre was slashed by a sharp rock. It was one inch of slash thru the tube. A rescue called to change the tyre. Thanks to Mubin for helping me change the tube and Rozani to supply me the tube with long nose. Not to forget Rashi that covered the incident with his DSLR. The clock showed 1845hrs, the trail is quite some distance to Bukit Ramli.
the exception series was down to a razor sharp rock.
Other team was called for status update and location. They didn’t reach yet to the peak. So, Sanusi has called out the ride and relocate the meeting point with the team. We couldn’t reach Bukit Ramli on time and return back before sunset. It could be a disaster and put all riders in risk condition if get down in the dark.
Enjoy ride, be safe
