Up up and away...


So the plan was to do an easy 50Km ride on Sunday. My first long epic journey on my spanking new pretty little bike. ( i know. Its not so epic being just 50km but im a newbie and this is my blog so i can call that short ride a f***ing Everest if i wanted to. so just deal with it) So woke up on Sunday morning, packed the bike, wore the padded pants.. and away i went to Putrajaya. (50 km drive for a 50km ride.. waheeyy)
I dont know what but i was pretty sure i wasnt doing something right.. because early into the ride it was already hurting at the wrong places. What made matters worst was the chain fell off at the 10km mark. I had no idea how to put it back on AND phone batteries were weak. Really felt like giving up but wasnt really in the mood to walk all 10Km dragging my pretty little bike (MPLB) back. So smsed the other cyclists about my problem and managed to call up a friend for directions on putting the chain back just before the batteries went dead. Then made a u-turn, and cycled back to the info center alone. Didnt really mind the cycling alone bit since i could do it at my own pace which was fun.. but i really did mind the pain.
I felt bad for the others who were waiting for me up front and when i didnt reach them after awhile, everybody turned back looking for me. Nak buat macam mana.. dah handphone battery habis.
So there you go.. pengalaman berkayuh yang tidak dapat saya lupakan. :)
