we mange to regroup somewhere in ipoh before we proceed to alor star. arrived in alor star about 4am..


at about 5am we at titiwangsa grik. took a nap for an hour. the weather was cold and raining. but i was too tired. i dont care what people said. took off my boot and straight away go to sleep in riding suit. snooring as usual. i think the snooring makes others awake hahahhaha... sorry guysss....

along the way we have to stop for fuel. every stop need to be pictured and the milaege need to be recorded for iba purposes.

just after reaching the finish line...




basically we enjoy our ride. too good to be true. but its true. too much fun hahahhaha... confirm, physically i am fit for long distance jourey hahahah. one thing that makes us finish this event.. we just take it easy. we do what we want. we stop everytime we wanna stop. we have cigarette, cendol, rojak, take a shower, sleep... hahahha i do not think i can finish if i just ride all the way. the most imporatnt thing is we look after each other. our rule is we need to see the headlite of the person behind. if not we need to pull over and wait. riding is a hobby and i wanna make sure that i enjoy it to the fullest. look forward for other long distance ride.... thank you to all- organizers, technical support, sponsors and last but not least the riding king bikers..... you're the manggggg
