Warming Up Ride

Sunday, 9th May - Its been a week after the best ride of the year, Interstate 2010 (K.Kangsar-P.Banding-Kota Bahru-Kenyir Lake). Kumar decided to lose his legs muscles so i decided to join today's short ride.At 7.30am, I, Kumar and Ho with his new full carbon bike (Battaglin) begins our ride heading to Kampung Baru. Ride speed pick up after passing the first bridge at Kg. Acheh. Kumar was leading at 33km/h and Ho attack at 36km/h. I slow down the pace by leading at 30km/h while trying to recover.

I and Kumar takes our turn to lead the 3 of us while Ho stays behind. I was tired and Kumar did most of the hard work.Coming out from Kg Sg.Wangi, we slow down again before turning into Spg Lima junction. Without any time to waste, i and Kumar took our turn to lead again while doing average speed at 33km/h before hitting 40km/h towards Kg Koh town.

I decided to stop for a quick rest however Kumar wanted to push on for another 10km. I rejoin with Kumar and Ho but i'm feeling very tired so i slow the paced down. Ho suprisingly attack and hit 50km/h towards the 40km mark before our stop for teh-tarik. Kumar was tailing him and i decided to let them go as my legs begin to cramp. Side-by-side they were sprinting before Ho suddenly decided to turn back home immediately after the sprint.

I and Kumar was suprise Ho manage to sprint at 50km/h. Looks like he will be our new sprinter with his new bike. Will be riding again next week.
