upcoming event

 Khoo challenge me to finish it within 7 hours and 30 minutes. That is what I will do.. haha.. Looking at this.. I guess I will tackle the 21km running. Walk till the top... the zoom down to the bottom.. Then I will walk my ass to the finish line.. That should do the trick. The idea is not to DNF!! 
 One month to go for my virgin marathon!!
 The 4 man team has a new name again. Well taking care of cows not so bad lah.
This will be the route on 15 Sept. Of course I love cycling anytime more than running.. hahaha.. Hope I will clock in about 6 hours 30 minutes perhaps.

The other event will be KL marathon on 30 Sept... so back to back three gruesome events for the month of September.

Lets nail it hard this time... though slllooowwwllyyyyy... so long I finish it!!!

Everyone out there don't give up!! Carpe Diem!!

Foldies finally..

 The break was shitty and luckily the broke.. haha.. so went to change a new set and rear break cable as well. 
it was quite a challenge and took about half an hour to come to KLCC from home. 

Finally fulfill my dream in buying a cheapo foldie.. kinda mix feeling since it was a cheapo stuff... its not as comfortable ride as compare with those expensive stuff but it does get u get.. 

The saddle is a Ok.. and really need to put in high cadence effort.. as the wheelset is totally crappy!! Wouldn't and struggle to move about. but it is a good high cadence training I presumed. 

My legs are quite spent today after the ride and jog in the park.

Tomorrow I will just do extra laps on the pool.

Major events are all coming up next month. Got more training to do. 

Maybe I could get some hot date in end of next month probably? :P

Can't wait for a more agile me in running and cycling.

Cameron Highland RDZv

It has been almost a month once up to Cameron Highland this year!! Excellent!! Love the place!! Except this time Raymond brought his friend along.. what do you know.. the more the merrier.. and Mr. Ryo is now in between job, we have quite some fun time up there.

Finally my wish to do a multiplicity photography for the first time has come to fruition. At the the idea of doing it at Smokehouse at the exact location has been what I wanted.. well, the character work was a bit impromptu but that is OK.. we had  a good successful attempt on Raymond and Mr. Ryo could not finished his as we were chased away.. prolly we are too noisy in the process of composing the character.. :p

The best two discovery this year is first Jin Jin steamboat and cafe. Wow! This is much better than the Organic Produce at Brinchang.. Generous portion at rm17 and excellent choices of soup.. their other dishes such as fried rice and pandan chicken are truly excellent!! Damn.. how I miss that place!! It was by chance of afternoon lunch break that the cook introduce to us this restaurant... 

The next discovery is one massage place near Equatorial.. of the masseur is not up to par with my kepong one but it was such a good ambience with natural cool air in Cameron and the fresh air provide us a different feel altogether. 

Of course our usual room 12 Cameronian Inn is the best place to stay with morning bird singing and beautiful small garden view to wake up to. 

Well, that was a very wonderful year to go to Cameron Highlands in such density for the year like never before. 

Until next time...

In search of a foldie

I used to think that foldie are rather stupid. That was when I was so gung-ho about speed and all that blah blah. Now I think I need one. It was solely for the purpose of commute of course. To ride to work and to ride to KLCC Park for jog. I don't think my MTB will last an hour in KLCC Park.. By the time I finish one loop.. perhaps it the thief will be nice enough to let me keep my chain as a souvenir. 

Anyway, almost secure a second-hand 20" a month ago.. by the last minute at the meeting point, the seller wife does not want to sell it.. Basket.. shouldn't have post it online dude.. So my search continue.. It rather amaze me the price of a foldie could fetch up to RM5000-RM7000!! That is crazy dude.. and of course the Joneses in town are all in the hype of foldies for its compact and mobility. Some of these expensive one are trememdously stylo.

I myself was captivated by the above IFmove foldie.. It is so compact and mobile.. and going at USD1,900 a pop.. Crazy dude!! Hope the PRC mainland will start a knock off soon enough.. haha.. That will be fantastic.

It won't be a good idea to get another touring as my mtb, RB and stationary already occupied quite a huge space at home.

Well, my bet in now on the cheap carryboy bike hopefully I could get next week.. and hopefully..yes.. hopefully it was last up to 6 months.. :p
