batu dam ride @ 1st dec 2007

this my 2nd time i'm on this batu dam ride. we have "me0@tim and myaho2@andrew" both are quite an average ride. been describing how great was the trail was and both tim and andrew are itching to get there. glad they enjoy every moment of the trail and experience there! also, the "kelolo" team was there. at least we're not alone in that jungle trail. :D

started off around 0845hrs and completed around 1225hrs roughly. we did about 15km give and take according to myaho2. thanks to his faithful sigma cycle computer. thought of getting a compass before i hit the trail the day before, but didn't get one. the trail ain't that hard to go by anyway. even if we get lost, we'll just have to track back the trail. is more fun! :P the start of the trail are quite flat until you reach to the second river crossing. that's where the uphill begins...it's all uphill for there but it is ride able. not much of an extreme uphill though. the trail is just nice at the beginning...dry... :D

me0 n myaho2 hammering the trail

things gets a bit more wet when we are around 1/3 of the way. slippery rocks and mud at some part of the trail. more leeches attack! those sucker are a real sucker! anyway, leeches are the least we are worrying about. at some point of the trail, me0 lost this spectacles while he enjoying the dh section of the trail. he can't see without this specs. thankfully he found them after 5mins of searching the ground fully covered with dead leaves and falling branches around the area. worst some more he's specs frame are in black color. how nice it blends into the jungle surroundings.

all in all, the ride was fantastic and myaho2 seems to enjoy it and so does as me0 (kept complaining he's hungry)..hahaha..
