ATV is the bomb. Must try at Chiang Mai. The second pic a bit too far away. It's a long, steep technical section with roots and rocks. Quite fun also.

Got a few small and mid size jumps here and there. We didn't go to the trails with proper big jumps. Most of us don't really do jumps anyways. Small balls.

at last, the sun shines! got to ride again after almost a week of downtime..wut did i learned from my ride today? never underestimate what a pair of padded cycling underwear/shorts can do to your ride. since i got back to cycling last month, i tried to hack it, just ride in my normal baggy shorts, but after a while..yup, u guessed it.. i can't feel my 'friends' down under. not to mention the uncomfortable feeling while u pedal, no bloody wonder i felt tired so soon into my rides. tried adjusting the saddle but it helps only a little. then i got myself a pair of padded undies & today was the first time i rode wearing it. wow it feels like sitting on a cloud, even on my hard OEM saddle.
so, my advice to other newbies or rusty born-again MTB rider like me..get them padded shorts/undies..ur 'friends' down under will thank you for it & you 'll have one less thing to worry about on ur rides..

putrajaya challenge park? which segment exactly?

if u haven't cycled for a while, that's normal la. takes a little time for ur down under to harden up. no pun intended.

Share video link please...
Nevermind, found it.


Please don't try to jump if you have no idea what you're doing...

i never wear chamois for riding b4 this
lazy to buy and price quite
then last month wear it because last time rode long distance quite uncomfortable for my lower part LOL
but i never felt numb anywhere

what i can say is....wah...so comfort

from vid, trail looks like normal
maybe he should stand further behind to balance front wheel?

There are a bit of things to look at. Body positioning, the way he attacked the jump or could be he slipped his foot or accidentally pressed his brakes.

eh this part where got pipu ride laaa...

This is the terrace area kan? *sigh* Long time since I went to PCP.

not sure la terrace or not. but it's here

why would we?

1. pipu ride the entire trails shown on the map above. that trail u took, exits to the road. nobody exits there. there are trails with proper jumps at other areas within PCP.
2. not braking at all doesn't mean skillful or advanced skills. that's just dumb. braking is to control speed, so u can ride faster n safer.

wah thats gmbn dudes i jelly
i better watch mtbtips.com
i am slow rider
hahaha

whats the average cost for bleeding brake? my lbs charges rm30 per brake, is the price high or ok?

usually rm50 front n rear. Maybe now it has gone up

thanks a lot for the info, i got the average price then.

You must've seen that road is safe for you

I think miaopurr meant when going down hill, not while approaching jumps.

On the contrary, brakes + jumps = not safe (if you touch your brakes when approaching jumps, it means that you're hesitant. If you're hesitant, most of the time, you're gonna crash).

What brakes you on? Avid seems to be more expensive to bleed.
At that price, ok la I think.

that's right. those jumps are on a downhill slope. too fast u overshoot. too slow u just gonna roll down. like i said before, braking to control the speed. not braking to stop. a light tap on the brake lever, is still braking.
