Ulu Yam Ride

6:30am wait for Adrian at Wangsa Maju Project Petrol Station, head to Jalan Gombak and into MRR2 highways, and to Kepong FRIM. There alot of riders waitings. i notice a beautiful bike, LOOK 48X(cant remember last digit).Keep peeping at it, the owner must think i peep on her. Saw some Itali Colnago bike as well and Giant Carbon bike, wish i hit 4D and buy one haha... dont know what is the feeling of riding Carbon bike *sigh* its ok la should appreciate what i had now... at least my bike bring me to Ulu Langat, Taiping, Lata Kinjang waterfall, Bentong and today Ulu Yam. Thinking bring it back to Miri for a ride.
So we ride about 3km to Batu Cave, navigate through the Jam in Batu Cave thinking it was Thaipusam. About 2km we come to the 1st killing hills, about 1km, i used my climbing gear and climb like turtle, then one by one the national cyclist pass by, from the malaysia logo on their jersey i assume they are. After reach the top of the hill, its fun time, zooming down the hills really fun, but the nice thing was the nice view of the Ulu Yam Dam on my left.

About 10-15 mins of cycling come to the second hill, again climb like turtle, after reach there refill my water bottle and zoom down hill again, this time goin down at much faster speed, yea... and do some drafting, continue riding until the Nasi Lemak stall. Take a rest fill up the water tank and the stomach.
Now we heading back to Batu Cave, the journey was not so easy, had to climb the hills under hot sun was killing me, its like forever... however manage to reach the top, refill water and keep on going, by now the Ulu Yam Dam was on my right side, very nice view of it, come to the last hill, short and very killing, damn it... Thank God it was only 1km. After the hill reach Batu Cave and heading back to Wangsa Maju with Adrian, while the others heading back to Kepong. Today ride was hot and windy...
