XPDC Tahan 2011 - Renuen Trip..

Had a blast reunion trip with my peeps last 2 weeks.. we went to G. Tahan via merapoh-merapoh.. Now one would think that merapoh-merapoh (the shorter route) is an easier route compared to merapoh - kuala tahan. I've been to Tahan using both routes and I would say the shorte route is a tad tougher because of the 3rd day descend from the peak to Kem Kor. Plus our trip this time was accompanied by rain and mud and slippery trek, so we kinda did double work - descend + being extra cereful not to slip and fall.

Anyway the trip was enjoyable, most of the RMDC clain were part of it, except for 2 of Talang's frens - Abe and Syam - who had to fill in for those who backed out last minute due to leave / personal issues. But the lil bit sad part was that we didn't get to spend too much time together coz of the big gap between the front runners and the sweepers. Imagine on the 2nd day, first group arrived at the peak at 6pm, and the last group reached the top at 2am! haha luckily I was in the middle group, so I still managed to see and chat with both front and back groups. Gap terlampau jauh so takleh nk mabok koktel ramai2.

I hope this can be a yearly event and all the RMDC fellas can get together again. RMDC is not open to public anymore, with our youngest member Nelly turning 29 this year.. tu paling muda.. imagine paling tua ehhehe..

My New Niece

I have a new niece! yahoo.. we went to see her during CNY cuti. Her name is Aliya Adriana.. I think she looks a bit like her mother's side.. or maybe it's too early to tell. So Danisa is a big sista now and getting to be more gangster tha ever! :p both of them are so cute. I can't wait until they come back to KL and hopefully the baby is a bit bigger by then.

Mari Bersenam di Bukit Saga

Earlier today we went for a hike at Bukit Saga. This hill is located at Tmn Bukit Saga, Ampang, on the way to langat. The climb is short - about 45min hike - but it was dead steep all the way from the start. A good place for exercise and training, only if you intend to go on intensive training, I would suggeset you do a few rounds of this hill.

There are a few tracks that you can choose : A,B,C and Cuepacs. ABC will lead to the same starting point, but Cuepacs route will end you up in Tmn Cuepacs. It's also the route to go to the waterfall. We didn't go becoz of time factor, but we ended up shopping at Abg Rashid's house and I spent almost 200 buying a TNF sweater and 2 buffs.. Waaa..!!!

New Royal Gel Saddle

Since bontot saya dah naik kematu bile kayuh beskal ngn seat lama yg dah keras cam batu tu.. saya pon tercarik2 la seat baru yg empuk lagi lembut utk menampung bontot saya yang gebu ini. Tapi bila pergi ke kedai samy, takde stok la plak seat yg saya carik.

Maka, bai dgn baik hati menukar seat beliau iaitu royalgel utk diberi kepada saya, dan beliau membeli seat lain yg agak lembut juga tetapi lebih kecil daripada royal gel ini. yahoo! saya sangat gembira.. kini bontot saya tidak kematu lagi.. yeehaa!

Happy New Year 2011
