September 20, 2008 - Bukit Kayu Hitam Ride

Bear's writting..

Zen and I went for the Hatyai de Tour with friends but we plan to go until Bukit Kayu Hitam and come back because due to some personal reason, we cannot overnight @ Hatyai with them..
The ride is great i would say... Everyone enjoy cycling..

The participant: Uncle William, Tek, Zen, Allan Chan, CJ Ong, Yong, Deric and me..
The Driver: Wen Juin, Boon Liang

The time:
600 - Sungai Petani
655 - Gurun (Breakfast)
815 - Guar Cempedak
903 - Alor Star
1049 - Jitra
1205 - Changloon
1326 - Bukit Kayu Hitam Border

The weather is consider good except when we arrive Alor Star. When we arrive the Junction of Southern Alor Star Toll, it started to rain.. The rain is so tiny until we ignore it and stop by the junction to took some pictures while waiting for the rest.. And then, the rain suddenly turn HUGE.... **ji ba bom** We all run ka beh tit hu.... Luckily we can across the drain and run to the nearest shoplot to hide from the heavy rain... #$!%^#&
We all thought we have to stop already since the rain is so heavy... but then, the rain only last for around 15 minutes and turn small again..

We continue our ride with wet road... It's fun to gets wet and dirty.. We continue our journey but forced to stop to wait for the Van.. They were lost in Alor Star and we have to guide them through phone.. We stop somewhere at Kubang Pasu for awhile and head down to Jitra..
Zen outperform all of us when we head down to Jitra.. Uncle William and gangs stop at the town center while Zen called back because he overshot and stop by the petrol station further..
I stop by at where Uncle William they all stops but i go further to meet Zen alone after that..
After the rest, we head up to Changloon.. Tek and Uncle William is chasing each other and left us all at the back.. I've tried my super very best but end up cannot even see them even it's a long straight road to Changloon.. wtf... !@#%^

We stop by Changloon for light lunch so that they have the energy to continue their journey up to Hatyai for Chicken Rice.. Me and Zen continue our ride to the border and stop at Sadao..
We went for bath and body massage so that we can refill our exhausted body... It's an enjoying trip and i would go again if i have at least 3 days of free time.. :)
