Kulim- Baling Ride

Mar 29th Kulim-Baling ride.
9 person were joining the ride and completed the 120km route safely with fun and sweat. We started of abit late as Mr. Lau was caught in early traffic over the Pg.Bridge ( it is weird). Anyway, we departed around 6.45am from President's house in KHTP. Riding toward Sg kod before making a left turn toward desa aman. From there, we were crusing slightly uphill before decent toward the desa aman roundabout. Exit toward the main road and it is all the way toward Baling. Cruising speed is up to 34-35kmh(guideline is max 33kmh) with big drive from our skipper We arrived Baling town at around 9.15am. we have wantan mee and Jawa mee at local kopitiam with countless 100+ and on our way back at 10.00am. When we about to leave, we met up with blogger; Balingbikers. Had a few chat.(good to meet him). Sun is out and getting hot. we are on our way back. Our skipper can't wait anyone, we started to push and after few traffic lights, he and his few buddies started to put a big gap behind the rest. Apprcoahing the junction toward Grik and Kulim, there is a big climb ahead. That is thrilling. We managed to ride through with whatever speed anyway.
TH and gang disappearing in front but they managed to make a stop and wait for the rest. From there, the speed is up with 34/35 even it is uphill. we made another stop for 100+. alot of 100+. of course a very nice lady owner to chat as well. Then, we headed for last 20km back. That's was the most killing part from desa aman toward sg kob. It is almost uphill all the way. Everyone started to feel the heat and muscle started not to listen to mind. It is a never ending ride but still we managed to make it. Everyone arrived safely at about 1.00pm.
It was fun and sweat with of course some minor hiccup along the journey. At the end, we managed to accomplish a milestone where we managed to have our 1st 120km ride. i beleive it will be more and more of this ride ahead.
2 setback fot the trip. We didn't manage to take any picture(camera man Yeap is not around). Major one is we have Mr Edmundo pull out due to Cheng Beng(he convinced his father to Cheng Beng to skip the trip)
