holy shit. y u post something that not available in Msia. It's haram you know.

base on the map above, starting point is at Kepong, heading to Batu Caves - Ulu Yam - Batang kali - Gotong Jaya - Genting Sempah - MRR2 - Kepong.

I'm just guessing. Butthead expert, u can analysis the route base of the map above and correct me if im wrong.

waits, i noticed it's only start 8:30am. Holy cow! the cyclists going to be grilled cow well toasted with hills when crossing the finishing line.

btw, 1 leg cost RM120. 3 legs cost RM350. how to justify the RM10 saving?  rclxub.gif  people buy package for facial, at least have minimum 20% to 50% saving compare to paying each visit.  thumbup.gif

where got haram???

like that.. haramkan the dobi shops la... how you know the pervert boss dun take a pretty girls underwear out and sniff??? get paid doing it somemore...i am jus theorizing la... whether it happens in real life or not, i dunno...

you definitely look to be right.. @ 920meters, Gohtong Jaya seems to be the only summit that high in that area and from the map, it seems to pass batang kali and passes quite near to Genting summit... not sure if they are taking karak down or sempah though for the return trip...

for that big a crowd.. sempah might be a tad dangerous.. if they can have police escorts and lane closure... i prefer karak... jus the top part of the genting sempah descend after the tunnel might be a bit dangerous as there are some fairly bumpy gaps on the big bridges...

the elevation map might not be too accurate... i never seen more than 15% gradient climbing up this route... 10-12% on a very short burst maybe...

climbs should be manageable... 1st climb is a short 700M up to the dam... then another 1.6KM climb before dropping like a rock for a couple of K's into ulu yam town... after that it is a 20++K climb to gohtong jaya... first 10+ to sungai batang kali is sort of rolling and not too steep covering something like 1500 feet.. once pass sungai batang kali... hell comes... 7KM up straight with little or no flats in between until the first pondok police near the skyway cable cars @ around 3000 feet... then another 2K or so to the GJ roundabout...after roundabout and a bit of coasting.. there is 1 final small incline to deal with... something around 1K before the final roundabout...

as far as my memory recalls... good training for KOM... is this before or after KOM?

ehh... RM120... i can go to my "happy ending" makans for 2 times... i rather go stuff my face...

i think if you buy all 3 together... the next year's gran fondo you get a discount or priority or something li tat i heard... not jus RM10 off only...

that's laundry boss ma. i mean selling it / display on public like in the photo...

Btw, did you heard the organizer plan to accept how many cyclists for each legs? maximum cyclists are welcome? UCI KOM is limiting to 700 cyclists as they want to have good quality of race and better control of cyclists.

Based on the map, the Karak word is still showing big not being covered by red line.  Thus, i believe it's Genting Sempah for the downhills. Btw, how's the Genting Sempah road condition now? few weeks no ride up there... my last ride, there's construction work on-going, only 1 lane available for traffic.

KOM is on 14 Oct. This KL leg is on 21 Oct. ok. Confirmed not joining. I enjoying the uphills to Cameron Highland breath the fresh air...

aiyo, buy 3 legs now, and expect something good next year? you dont know whats going to happen within 1 year le... anyway, it's not for me.

Maybe end of the year, my group will have our own rides round Penang island...

aiyah... porno also sell la li tat... jus put at the back of the room somewhere.. members only entrance... malaysia lots of ham sap jai's...they sure find jalan one.... do good for economy as well..girls can earn money and uncle's gets their perverted satisfaction...

i dunno got limit or not? i didn't really follow this.. jus heard it when i went to bike shop some weeks ago...

i think it's genting sempah too, since it strays away from karak at some parts... both sempah and karak actually travels quite parallel... sempah road condition is unpredictable.. but that can be controlled by sending a motorbike up front to scout and warn of dangers...

the only worry is that some buggers will start descending like a pro and then the rest attemp to follow and then have a massive off... very easy to make mistakes on narrow roads with tight turns.. furthermore, all the left turns are blindly turn in on faith alone for those people who have not ridden sempah before... you don't want a pileup in sempah... i would be worried if i were to join... i can control my bike.. but not when there is a pile up in front of me at speed...

well... this is like gym ma... the more you buy ... the cheaper... if you don't come... even better brows.gif and money in the pocket before you even utilize it..

and you can do it.. if hianboy can do it on a mountain bike... so, can you...

more reasons why i say the elevation charts are off... it looks like a consistent average 10% gradient climb...either that, or my LCD screen color is off.. or my eyes...

to be honest:

what you heard / saw were just the top of the P2K group. inside the group, there's also slow rider. y u no pity on slow rider like me?

somehow, people only likes to hear / pickup the best one, while the slow one never want to acknowlegde.

anyway, be part of the group are very heartbreaking, hard, suffering ride with the group, i have no regret. it's makes me stronger within short period from Nov'11 until now, 9 months time frame.

Self sustain, no support car, balik sendiri if dropped, guess, we are just a bunch of economic class riders, unlike some luxury group which always have support cars follow on each ride.
*
we are jus assholes who like to pick things to bite on.. while we can't make fun of slow riders.. because, we are too.. we make fun of the fast riders... haha..

like you can't f@ck your boss up...so, you say bad things about him like he has a 1.75inch d1ck...

riding is suffering...my motto... cannot suffer... dun ride... more reasons why i dun drive to my starting destination... (except when i am lazy)

dunno how to suffer? also dunno how to enjoy the ride... more suffer, more enjoy... make sense??? not really...

like many things.. it is best to find gangs that you can click with... from an economic scale to sexual orientation..

kenot be too scared la.. if too scared.. got no roads to ride adi...

everywhere is dangerous... if scared... better stay home and watch TV... even then, your made in cina TV might explode right in your face and kill you blink.gif

i go sempah riding past MRR2 kepong.. but usually before the sun comes up fully...so far... i am still around...

on highways, very important not to stick earbuds in and start listening to music... hearing your surroundings is an important thing to riding in busy roads... else, a car come up behind you also you dunno, very dangerous...

i thinks i'm lucky as im with huge peloton group consists of 10-20 cyclists...

it's an art to cycling / run without music. it's matter of how "ZEN" you able to master it.

It's ZEN!

I hate wires entangling, so no music for me.
Also people like us this generation already spent too much time in front of the computer, sitting indoors. Just go out and enjoy your surrounding

I dont get it for some people even insist to listen music when they swim.. zzz i just cant get it...

electronics and water... no.no.

wires can be managed ma... jus tuck it inside your jersey.. else, find a bluetooth capable A2DP player and wireless plugs...

cycling is my only time i can listen to music without getting disturbed or doing something... so...

furthermore, i cycle in hustling bustling city most of the time...places where there is not much cars but aunties that dashes out of nowhere to block your roads... no nature sounds to listen too some more... maybe the occasional monkeys humping on the trees...

well listening to aunties that dash out is better than hearing cars run over you. in both running and cycling. Sometimes during long run it can get very boring too, at that time I do wish there's a media player, but when I bring media player i always wonder why I have uploaded all these lousy songs.. haha
*
cars i understand... auntie you cannot hear la... they sneak up from nowhere one... they are some cheeky ladies destined to crash and break your carbon frame...

haven't you heard of playlist management? jus sumbat all the songs in the world into your puny player and then play the 5 songs you like repeatedly over and over again....

i contradict myself again hmm.gif

32kbps use vbr no use wan la...

sure any sound except for dead silence will use all the bits available...i bet even pure static sound will fully utilize full 32kbps... sure run at 32kbps full time one

maybe can give 32kbps, 8-bit , 22.1Khz sampling rate a try la... estimate cut by half the size... 120KB per minute... whoo.. a whopping 70hours on a 512MB player..

jus dun gripe about the quality though... might sound like robot singing laugh.gif
