Ride > Rantau Panjang

nice Saturday morning .. cycled alone to stadium .. with some new route in the head .. i'm very sure that no one would show up this morning .. because some are still work halfday .. warming up around jalan istana and back to stadium .. to check if there are anybody turn in .. hamdan was already there .. he just arrive

where to ride ? it is just 2 of us .. better .. as preset in my head .. a quick decision was made .. we think we should off to rantau panjang and explore more about the village and it surrounding areas .. we was there once during ride to bukit cahaya shah alam .. the ride was organized by the rantau panjang team .. first stop .. surau jalan haji musran .. call mr bad if he could join us and be the host to show around .. unfortuntely he is working also .. ok no big deal ..




the people are about to start the day .. open the shop .. the warung aka kedai kopi are full with local .. this village are nice and cool .. along the way of the route there are plenty of kedai kopi .. it could be a meet point to see friends and unofficial information center of the area ..  



our ride has lead to end of the route .. we can't forward further ..  so we move in to main road .. the main road is link to the port klang .. to the north port .. we don't have plan ride to the port .. so we cross over to other side of the area .. still in rantau panjang but this side is next to the sea .. we could see small fisherman jetties in this area .. we turn into jalan kunci air .. the name of the road show or reflect the function of it .. we ride along the road to look for kunci air .. after few kilometers, we reached the kunci air of sg saim .. just under shahpadu highway .. next to it .. and there is a fisherman jetty also .. spent sometime for snapshots ..



leaving sg saim, we cross the shapadu highway to another side of rantau area .. now we have realize that rantau is big .. this segment seem like to be a small town or center of rantau panjang .. there is school, community clinic and shoplots .. the time show 10 am .. best time for pit stop and refreshment .. turn to jalan genting as it seem like main road out of the village area .. try to look for some unique warung to stop .. so it can be an attraction to ride here next time .. we ride and ride and ride ..



then we saw the signage ..it is very unique as per requirement .. a basikal tua hang up under the tree .. Lot 1115, WARUNG SOTO (KEDAI BASIKAL) wow !!! this must be something special here .. soto serve at kedai basikal .. yeap .. very nice warung .. the food serve are good and the environment are cool .. other than soto there is nasi goreng udang and mee udang .. the taste awesome .. during the stop we discuss to take other Rotorian to ride here as well ..

we ride back to the klang town after that .. and plan to repeat the ride here again next time .. to explore other part of the jetties .. and of course revisit the warung soto ..

feel free to look the full album of the ride at XPDC Rantau..

enjoy ride, be safe ..
