UIA - Genting Sepah - UIA

This particular trip was organised by Aze. May be because of the climb path all the way story or when the word ' Genting Sempah', many people thought, the sweat had to go trough. But for me, i just taught it will be a great ride just because, if i made it to the Genting Sempah, it will be like a new achievement for me. I been drove by the same way which is the old road to Genting a few time couple of years ago. I can image little bit how the bend and twist here and there.
It was a weekday where normal white collar people at the office working. It just me and Aze, packed the bikes. We started up from UIA about 10am which the sun already started heat up. The first half and hour of the journey, the route was flat and lots of houses and villages we passed by. Then, just after we passed by the legendary 'Mimaland', the road started to climb gradually. It is not that hard, sometime you will not even noticed that you on climb position. Along the way, the houses decreasing bit by bit and we entered the 'no man land'. Seems like scary movie, but it was really relaxing and enjoying, where the trees filtered the hot sun, the cool wind blowing seamlessly and the view is almost spectacular.



When about 3/4 of the route, the climb was little bit tough. But still climbable, just imagine with my heavy freeride rig and i can consider that with my average people fitness, i can reach till the top.

So we made it to Genting Sempah and we celebrate the victory at Mc Donald there. It was awesome, people started looking at us and where the hell is these 2 nuts came from? or may be they wondering why Aze wore a pink outfit? The way back, we choose the same route, but we had to climbed 1km of hard uphill. We eventually reach at the point where we enter the old road to Gombak again. From there, it was opposite of the climbing which we rode downhill all the way until Mimaland. It was about 30 min of joy, i never have a chance downhill this long before.

We reach back at UIA about 330pm, which is was about time we planned. This trip was the my first and certainly will be not the last.
