Pontian-Gunung Pulai

Date: 15/02/09

Distance: 60km

Although today's ride was a bit easy (short distance), we felt very happy with the returning of Azies after a long absent from cycling. Pictures above are fully dedicated to Buyung, Azies and Bro Ancun whose wearing new jersey.

We have decided that we are going to climb the Gunung Pulai today. Picture above shows Gunung Pulai at about 9.00am. We can't wait to push our limit.



Unfortunately we couldn't finish our climb due to the new rules that would not allowed anyone to enter the place anymore. We only managed to climb half way. Maybe it is closed because of safety reason.

I found out that this route towards Gunung Pulai 2 is by far the most challenging ride uphill here in Gunung Pulai. Maybe you guys would like to try this out. Bro Ancun also broke his spoke again here.

We had our break here at the stall in Gunung Pulai 2. Later on, a group of mtb cyclist lead by Ah Fan arrived. And the shocking news for today is the returning of 2 old school cyclist that have been out of cycling world for about a year. I will not reveal their name yet. Just a picture from the back should be enough for this time.

That's sad. I was planning to ride up one of these days. I only managed to walk to the camp after the waterfall 20 years ago. So I guess the road to the summit is permanently closed :-(

Sorry Ben I didn't noticed ur msg. I did manage to climb the hill at the end of last year. Sad to say, there was noting to see up there. No more shops selling food and souveniers especially after the big land slide a few years back. Only joggers and cyclist like to test the uphile challenge and breathe the fresh air. I will update once the place is open for public again. Cheers
