End of the year 2009, this trip was planned by Aze, he used to long distance cycling. So to make year 2009 meaningful, we planned (actually last minute) to paddle to Port Dickson. 
We, 7 of us started from Bandar Baru Enstek that morning about 9am. That morning was very clear and the sun already shined hot. It was a good start but just a few kilometers away, Azad's bike which borrowed from Aze tire bust cause of the pot holes. Luckily, Aze was fully equipped with tube, repair kits and even pump made a quick repair. We continued to cycled to Lukut. On the way there was some up and down hills but still we manage to overcome it. It was a lovely scenery where we passed the fruit, palm and rubber plantations. Just before we entered Lukut, we made a quick stop to refresh ourselves. At Lukut, the traffic was quit heavy because we had to run through the town area. As we enter the Port Dickson, we can see the seasides and we knew we nearly made it. We manage to reach Port Dickson about 11am and have a an hour and half rest and enjoy the sea view. 
Lunch in front of the Malacca Strait was awesome. Felt like a vacation trip. After we refilled and refuel our body, we headed back to Sepang via same route. Along the way, we had a positive feedback from the locals, some thumbs up, some waving at us and even gave a support gestures. On the way back, due to hot firey sun, it was like hell. but just we enter Tanah Merah, the heavy rain wet us which we had to stopped at the bus stop for shelter. About 10 min, we continued paddled to Sepang. We reach Sepang just in time like we planned, which about 4pm. All i can say, this particular road cycle trip, we try to push our boundary to limit...Even though, the sun burn our skin, the rain wet our underwear, the hill cramped our muscles, the distance dry our energy, at least we made it safety. total of 76km of pain and joy. Lovely day isn't it.
