This is my first attempt to the FRIM. FRIM is a favourite spot for MTBikers, it has several tracks for bikers who dare to take the challenge. 600 hectors of untouched forest are put on hill landscape, heaven down hill and thrill uphill. It was raining the night before the ride. I has been warned that the trail would not be easy.
Sydin, his gf, and me take off sharp at 0900hrs. The first track is an uphill trail to the bottom of Steroid Hill. To the bottom of the hill didn't mean down hill, but an up hill climb. It was an easy climb for me for few hundred meters but the rest is, uhh .. Felt so heavy to paddle up and push me to used the light gears. But we managed to the point in 1 piece, yet.
Bottom of hill is the junction for us whether to climb the Steroid Hill or to follow another track that lead to Sungai Buloh which is end at the hospital. The Steriod Hill will be a 2km climbing uphill of 45 degree. While the Sg Buloh Trail is combination of moderate up and down but about 10km in distance. Quick election time and the vote was, 3 Sg. Buloh and 0 Steroid Hill.
But we didn't complete the 10km to Sg Buloh, just a quater of it and we decide to turning back.The down hill was fun and thrill. In this situation safety come first. Combination of body balancing, front and rear brake control are definitely a must skill to have and to master. We completed the ride in an hour.
Enjoy ride, be safe.
