PCC Ride - Hulu Langat

I met my now regular riding buddy Ah Fook at 6.30am outside my condo and we cycled out of KL and over the hill into Batu 14 where we met the rest of the gang. Arif turned up with a shiny new Cervelo frame that many of us started drooling over.

We cycled up to Batu 18 and then down towards the foot of Genting Peres. Our at first leisurely pace slowly picked up and I ended up doing a 25 minute stint at the front at over 30kph - good practice for triathlons! Rafiq later commented on the lovely draft that I gave him.

After the rolling hills next to the Dam we stopped at the Tekala Picnic area and debated whether or not we should get the cops involved in out TT - the conclusion was "NO"!

After water, Milo Ais and nasi lemak we headed back to the dam and up the 2.5km steep Tekali climb - which I am glad to say seems easier every time I do it. Then the wonderful 4km 70kph downhill to sugar cane drinks in Batu 14 before Ah Fook and I went back over the hill into the now hot and busy Jalan Ampang. After many traffic light stops I reached home before 12pm.

Distance - approx 84km.

KLIM Circuit Run next Sunday: TARGET = 15km in 1.5 hours @ 6:00/km.
