Update Jamborees

Ok i am too lazy actually to update. But whatever it is
Bernam jaya MTB jamboree - 13
Kuala Linggi Mtb Jamboree - 19.

Sepang Jamboree 2010

my 1st jamboree for this year.
I'm not registered, but using someone's number lah courtesy of Lim.
It was a 45km trail... muddy and slippery.
The trail marking i would rate 3/10. Very very poor.
But for the food they provided 80% since its KFC... hehehehe
I manage to came out number 21 :)

PCP XC Race

Registered myself under the open category
Most top riders turn up for this race including my best buddy Lim Yew Meng (1st time to pcp)
The open category started at 2pm
Total of 4 laps
Flag off- the route was to round the 'kampung' before entering the trail to break the crowd.
I manage to stay in the 1st group during the break away
However once i entered the trail.... PONGEH already. hahahaha
the 2nd lap, my bottle burst due to 'soft drink'.
i have to cycle without water for 1 lap
So i try to maintain top 20 which i managed.
But, at the final lap, the right leg cramped and the worst part is that is happened at the feeding zone.
Just 1 last lap :(

One good thing that i cramp at the feeding area cos there are people can help

10 speed!

I have upgraded my bike according to the era of Mountain Biking

It means 10 speed people!
At first Sram released their XX, which i can't afford
But for 2011, Shimano releases 10 speed Dyna Sys, and its affordable

I didn't buy the whole group set.
Only bought the necessary stuff- Shifter, RD and cassette
Shifter n RD- Shimano XT
Cassette- Sram X9 (12-36)

So not my bike runs 29-30 crankset
along with 12-36 cassette
Its HOT

RADAR!!!

its mine :)

KL MTB Carnival 2010

This is i think my 5th participation in kl mtb carnival.
My target this year is to go to the final of the 18-30 category.
On the seeding day, it was raining heavily.... and for all u know i run on kenda klimax.
So i was in the second group for the seeding. I managed came out 4th for the group.
Later the result was announced, and my name was 19th so im not qualified.
With disappointment i went for a drink with other riders, and i received a call from the organizer saying that i qualify to final and im the 15th rider.

The final...
Another bad luck for me, fell off my bike at the rocky switch back on the second lap.
DNF again....
i was took to the hospital, coz they suspect something wrong with my shoulder.
i it was damn hurt as the doctor push back my shoulder to its proper place

KARSEi 2010

Karnival Sukan Extreme UiTM 2010 was held at UiTM Segamat.

I represented UiTM Shah Alam

6 of us all together plus Ahmed Shah, so total 7 riders.

Left Shah Alam after friday prayer and arrived Uitm Segamat around 8pm

Stayed over rumah tamu UiTM

Race day.

Pro riders pun join.

eg. Razif Letua, Zam Tezibone, Radio Terengganu

But lucky for me, i'm in IPT category

still ada Sukma riders under IPT category... kacau betul

The trail 20km... rolling start

I managed to get 2nd place..

Won myself RM300... target first RM500 :(

Tapi bersyukur la jugak

A Slam on Malaysia Base Jumping scene

28 Sept 2010, the first death to a BASE jumper occured in Malaysia.

It was in Alor Setar tower, Kedah.

A 42 year old woman from Australia.

A sad moment to all jumpers.

RIP

Aidilfitri

Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri
Maaf Zahir & Batin

Cerita lumba 'internasional' Langkawi

Punyelah excited pasal event Langkawi International Mountain Bike Challenge.
Kononnye event terbesar di Asia.... mesti la nak join kan
tarikh event 6-8 August

Permulaan. 6 august
Saya menumpang kereta Azhar Black. Jadi tempat pertemuan pertama ialah Due Roda shah alam.
Disusuli gathering point iaitu R&R Rawang, dimana geng lain berkumpul untuk tujuan konvoi ke destinasi. Semasa perjalanan saya TIDO.
R&R pertama berhenti semasa perjalanan ialah Sg. Perak.
Kemudian perjalanan diteruskan ke JT kuala kedah. Tiba disana lingkungan jam 6 pagi.
Keadaan JT yang kelam kabut. Feri kami jam 9 pagi.
Tiba di langkawi 10 pagi. Perut berbunyi dan KFC memanggil manggil.
Selepas itu, kena kayuh 15km ke hotel candik kura... klaka gila namanye. Tempat saya menumpang untuk mlm pertama.
Petang itu menuju ke Tok Senik untuk registration. Semasa perjalanan Arwah Abg Aznul meninggal dunia akibat sakit jantung. Al-Fatihah
Tiba di Tok Senik, saya membuat pendaftaran, bertemu dgn teammercury yang gah-nye.
Kemudia test trail... mencabar.

7 August. Cross Country
Under Mens Elite. Kira-kira 300 rider.
Hanya kurang daripada 30 rider berjaya menamatkan perlumbaan termasuk saya.
Namun masalah timbul apabila komisar mengalami masalah tentang kedudukan pelumba.
Balik kayuh ke hotel dan saya mendapat sebuah bilik di resort 'twin peak'

8 August. Endurance
Memakai jc letua.... mendapat support dari mereka. Permulaan yang agak baik tetapi hanya dapat bertahan 4jam kemudian menghadapi 'masalah mental' untuk meneruskan perlumbaan.
Penat sangat rasanya tetapi tiada masalah pada basikal mahupun kram pada kaki. Pelbagai teguran diterima dan sokongan supaya saya meneruskan tetapi GAGAL :(
Hujan lebat, saya tidak dapat bertahan. Teksi tiba dan tido didalam van
Malam itu mengalami cirit-birit.... sehingga keesokan hari.
Mujur ada rakan yang membantu sehingga tiba di kl

Konklusinya...
The event organizer were totally suck. They used the so call corresponder however they find difficulties to determine the rider who complete the race. Well not only myself facing the problem, but most riders who complete the race. Its a waste since i target for myself top 30 which i managed however name was not listed. Sadly those who complete only 2 laps name listed.

update on past event

24 & 25 july - Skydive in segamat. One parachute gonee when a &*^(* student cut away a good canopy

28 July- My birthday :). Thanks to arfa for the gift!!

Eco-X 2010

Eco-X? sounds challenging........
Yeap its totally a challenging race.
For the mountain bikers, its not really a cross country race, instead its a race where u have to carry your bike uphill and slide downhill on a slippery trail
There were 3 loops for the Mens Open- Killer Loop, Big Loop and Small Loop.

The race- I registered under Mens Open
Tag Number - 8022
Time- 10.30am

After the flag off, i think 30 minutes after that, real heavy rain fall off from the sky with lightning!!!
Lucky i was in the leading group, so the trail was not damage yet.. still it was damn slippery.
The trail with fallen trees and torn, yeap many riders got cuts at the leg or hands. Worst the PACAT as the number 1 enemy..
I didnt get any Pacat... lucky lor.
Since it was raining, we had to cross 3 rivers which is running fast... many had troubled crossing coz u hav to carry your bike along.
For me, i cramp my leg 3 times... i was the third rider for the category, and Jacky who was following my back got the chance to overtake me :(

I finished 4th... happy with it. Total distance is 25km. Took me 2 hours to complete.
W2

wheres my money!!!

Aiyoh this money suppose for something else
It end up of me buying cycling stuff
So what i bought was a Polar FS3c and a parentini short

I wanted the polar long time ago. Suddenly today when i went to Joo Ngan Son, he gave me promotion price. God...

Now i'm short of money... :(

2010 Epic Hash

Its my first time joining the epic hash.

A tough ride since the trail very slippery And it was muddy

My tire which runs on 'no tubes' flat 2 times... both front and rearI finished the ride with a mat salleh 'Mike'
Just the 2 of us after the 1st water station till the end
Before the last 3km, heavy rain...

Its the lowest so far that i've jumped. 70 meter.
Base jumpers on that day- Haziq, Idrus and Arab.
The event was attended by the Minister.
We leap off at 11am.

The best part was to crawl at the edge of the building.
I was like shaking coz i'm the last jumper to stand at the edge.
The landing area was the main road.

It was a good experienced :)

At first ride slow slow... by myself bawak Haikal.. a uitm sport rec student.. tarik la laju and just the two of us in front. Naik steroid. During the downhill... saw arfa and intan at the pondok. Muke arfa that time... merah and dia dah start menyumpah. hehehehehehehehe. Pastu lalu tasik. But trail to tasik byk downhill with loose rocks. Dia dan takot and menjerit. lucky Adam boleh ajar. Myself... hmmm faham je la kan. Bila dah kuar.. they want to continue climb jogging track. But arfa made a statement 'rasa nak bunuh diri'. Ok ok so i went to the car. Waited for the others. Basuh my bike. Oh saya kene gigit pacat.
After that, went to damansara perdana to have our dinner. Around 10pm baru gerak balik.
Penat :)

The hill.
It's getting steeper... the 2 gals start laju... n me start pancit. The 2 roadies duduk at my back. Ain't roadies to be up front? suddenly dorang patah balik. Malu kot mountain bike yang tarik. So teh was in front with the girls. Suddenly i was alone. While i was cycling... saw 2 monkeys. Suddenly they chase me/ WTF!
Finally i made it at the peak.

Going home.
Downhill... speed 40km-55km/hr. Stop at the stall for roti canai. Then went home.
A good ride with W2.

16 Jan 09
Hafiz plan for our geng to ride at Putrajaya Challenge Park (PCP). 8.30am. So i arrived 8.30 sharp. Met Lan... and predator arrived earlier than me. Sakit perut... lari cari toilet. While preparing... one by one sampai. The last to arrived is adam along with intan and ezlynn. Ezlynn turun terus tanya.. 'mana Arfa? i bawak intan ni. Kat sini ade basikal sewa' Lor i just know bout it. So that day, 2 newbies. Intan and Azmy. It was 11 of us. I lead the way. Technical part best. hehehehehe. Once made a complete loop... Yunus pun tibe-tibe muncul. He asked me to make another loop. So i went with him with race speed. Full loop for 20 minutes. Then after that, gi wall climbing just next door. Lepak at the wall for half and hour... and perut lapar. Terus gi mamak double trouble. After that, shoot back home. While on the way, boss text, petang photoshoot at 5. Wear full suit. I went to melawati, parked my car at Boss place. Zulfadli, me and boss cycled and met up with jeremy with his new SCOTT. Cycled to bukit lalang. took some picture of our bikes. And we've came out with our team name "W2". It stands for Weight Weenie of Weekend Warrior. Nice ait. After that gi mamak, and then to boss place. THEY took OFF my GRANNY ring. Now my crank only 2 pieces. :)After that had our dinner. then i went home

PCP Mountain Bike XC race

Putrajaya Challenge Park organized a XC race upon the launching of the park.
Well many registered and most of the elite rider were there. My team - haziq, hafiz, zul, jeremy. Others attended epul, amir, adip, abg am, aie dan ramai la lagi.

Well the race started pretty late. Suppose at 8am but because Melayu yg organize, have to wait for the minister bla n bla and the race start at 10am. And the martial on the pajero Fucked Up when they brought us to wrong turn, and many who were in front had to turn back and catch the front group.

The total distance is 12km (5km tarmac and 7km off road) myself managed to get the 13 spot overall. Dapat follow the elite group. Hem hem hem. Dah power ni sebab pakai power balance and makan power gel. Epul was behind me but ada this part uphill dah xlarat and he cut me there. The trail was awesome.

So, i am looking forward for the PCP race but they have to improve on their timing.

i LOVE

1st thing which is the most important is my girl. Yeap who else if bukan Arfa. Like most of my cycling friends pun dah kenal. Paling lawak bila gi kedai advance cycle, Lily tanye 'aku dengar kau dah ade girlfren'... hahahhaha mcm lah saya baru ade GF.
