House to Kampung Tanjung Langsat.

Kampung Tanjung Langsat, Pasir Gudang. Another favourite ride destination among JB Riders. Before the ride me and my wife went her for the seafood. qiute good actualy. well, its not that don't  like seafood, its just nowadays its been quite frequent. Need to take a break from it. Ok, back to my ride. Started off at my house at 0900hrs, after havong breakfast with my wife. she went of to work (saturday, that is) and I had my day cycling. from Setanggi, took the Tebrau and left to Permas Jaya. So this is the first time that I ride at the new hiwa, The Permas Jaya - Pasir Gudang Pantai Hiway. Its good that the authorities still allow riders at this hiway while its still less congested. My prediction ist that this particular hiway will be the main route to Pasir Gudang. 

It only takes me 16km from my house to reach pasir Gudang. Stop at in front of the TM building for a cancer brake and for some shades. Yes, its getting hot this morning. passing through Pasir Gudang as I ride to Kampung Pasir Putih, the route is a bit harsh as traffic was mainly consist of lorries. so had to cover my face with my buff. A bit tricky cause I'm not familiar with Pasir Gudang area, so had to rel mostly on signboards to Kampung Tanjung Langsat. Did not noticed any other fellow riders though. 

Reached Kampung Tanjung Langsat around 1100hrs. stopped at a local warong for a cool Milo Ais, and rest for 30 minutes. Then continue to ride and explore the local color. Met Pak Daud,  He used to ride at his young age, As conversation gets more interesting, found out Pak Daud had an olskool Colhago Road Bike stashed at his house. Being a rider during the days, Pak Daud knows to appreciate the passion. 

Looking at tje sky, it does not show any signs of rain, so decided to ride back during the hot sun. Had no choice, had to ride in the hot sun. From Kampung Langsat to pasir Putih had to bear the hot sun. Take a stop at Pasir Putih to cool down.Continuing along Pasir Gudang Industrialo areas, the normal traffic of lorries. 
It was when I entered the Permas Jaya- Pasir Gudang Hiway,  my body tempreature heats up andI'm beginning to feel a bit dizzy. That a sure sign of dehydration. Had to stop at a Shell petrol station just before Senibong Cove to hide myself from the sun. It took me half an hour, until I finally decide to end my ride for the day. So call my wife and asked her to pick me up. It took her 45minutes to arrive, and I pack up my bike into the car and drove back home. Well, better to be safe than sorry, I would definately succumb into fever if I continue the ride home. 

With no shades around, and the sky is still bright clear, with no heavy clouds around. Like I always say, there's always an excuse for me to ride again to finish is up next time, and this time, I will be more prepared for the route. 
Overall, the route was good, with hiway and nice and easy traffic along Pasir Putih to Kampung Langsat, I would say this route would be one of my favorites. 

Gelang Patah to Kampung Pendas, Johor.

Pagi bangun lambat plak, kol 0800hrs baru bangun.  Dah la bangun lambat, cam malas gak ler nak kayuh. Hari ni sabtu, kalau tak kayuh, dok umah kang layan baring ngan tidur jer ler, so baik gi kayuh jer ler. So tukar plan ler, Hantar wife kat tempat keje, pastu gua drive gi Gelang Patah ler.  Plan asal gua nak kayuh dari umah jer, abih dah lambat, so gagal ler kayuh dari umah, kira gagal ler. So siap, lepas, pastu breakfast kat Kakak Lontong, settle gerak gi Pekan Gelang Patah. Kira cam bosan gak nak kayuh ni, tapi redah gakler. Park kete kat Kedai mamak Awana, minum jap, pastu setting basikal. 

Kol 1115hrs baru start kayuh. Cuaca panas la jugak ari ni, so kayuh rilek gakler. Distance bukannyer jauh pun. Dari pekan, ikut Route J4, pastu sampai Kompleks kastam, belok kiri, ikut jalan kampung plak.  Kalau tak masuk simpang kampung, buat full loop. Maybe next ride gua buat full loop..

Berhenti jap kat R&R Gelang Patah, kena air kelapa dulu ler, Panas ni. Kena air kelapa orait ler. Sampai kat R&R baru 8km jer pun. Kira half way gakler. So next route jalan kampung takler panas sangat. Lalu sebelah pagar Kompleks Kastam.

Sanpai Kampung Pendas Laut, rilek jap dulu ler, kena nescafe O ais. Ride seorang ni kira okler takler nak tunggu rider lain. Agak-agak ilang penat, sambung kayuh balik ler. Kira balik dah redup sikit ok ler sikit. Ada takder pun berhenti jap pasal azan jer pun. Sampai pekan Gelang Patah, rilek dulu lagi kat Kedai Awana. Kat kedai ada wifi so bule ler upload gambar sikit. Settle gerak, ondaway balik ujan lebat la jugak, kira nasib bauk gakler gua tak tunggu sampai petang, kalau tak sure balik kayuh redah ujan.  So total distance ride pun baru 30km jer pun.

Kalau nak ikutkan takler berbaloi kayuh pagi, tapi takper ler. Lain kali jer ler. Dari langsung tak kayuh. Dah la minggu depan gua banyak event. So kena ler start serius kayuh baik Kalau nak ikutkan memang ler ari ni punyer kayuh tak berbaloi sangat pasal 30km jer, dari tak kayuh langsung, kira okler, dari tak kayuh lansung, dok umah layan bantal, baik ler gua gi kayuh.
