1st Ride after 1 Year

Thanks to Hub, Reita, Bacin, Diki for making my first bike out possible after about 1 year. Bacin & Diki was kind enough to discount their distance just to let us have our first time. I mean, first time serious cycling, i guessed. Me & Reita both struggled hard during the biking. Yup, still not up to it.

Yesterday, woke up 2 hrs before the biking. Prepared & fed Aydeen, then sped off to Bt 14, Ulu Langat. The ride covers BT 14 - Perez - Bukit Hantu - Bt 14. Thanks to hub, he prepared all the logistics night before. There, I got butterflies in stomach as I had not done bike handling for 1 year. What if I couldnt take off the clips? What if I go sideway & falls? What if my pregnancy weight still stirred my balancing sense? What if accidents happen like previous? Kept messaging Reita for some directions, motivations, u name it, i had it. Kacau jer die tido. She stays nearby actually.

Reaching there, saw Jaja & team. She is one determined mum, going to do her weekly long biking. Day before, I ffk her ; for agreeing to lsd 21k with her, but MIA aje as I couldnt wake up in time. Sorry Jaja. She looked so polished & strong doing her bike. A few others also attempting the longer distance, Alwin with his MTB, Diket with his ride from home, & few others that I remembered-the-face-but-not-the-name.

Me on the other hand, I lost my cycling jersey, my cycling tights. Belasah jer whatever available. Lucky that the bike need not to be kept in the wardrobe. If not, I think I might forget where had I misplace the bike too. While waiting, the mummies chatted bout our kids. Uit, cepat kurus?? So much so that I wanted to say I did nothing, but I told honestly that it was not without workout. Got to erg at 3am to lose only few nuisance pounds. Still am fat

Started at 8am, we biked off to Perez, then Bukit Hantu. Well, due to lack of everything, I shall skip the huffing & puffing parts. One thing for sure, I was trailing behind. Although mind asked to go faster, my body was not prepared to take the hike. First 10km was still ok. If going up the hill was slow, going down was even slower. I had lost the confidence to ride down. Well, guess I hated going down more than going up.

After a good day cycling, went back home right away. Thanks to all for making this possible. Today, bontot sakit. Have not had this pain for a long time. Longing for more pain.
