The hills are bold.

Like any Sunday its time to burn down some fatty under the skin and ride free into the wild. Time 3,30pm, weather bright blue sky and moderately hot. We parked our sunday car at small local village at Beraya Village outskirt of Miri. With GPS navigation we navigate ourself into remote jungle where it used to be a small logging trails and dense bushess. We came in huge group but by accident we got separated into 3 smaller groups and went aimlessly in the jungle using good sense of path finding and common sense we manage to find way in and out of the forest. This ride is way tougher that usually because, all manual climbing, ridge jumping and deep trenchess. The terrains is all the way up the hills. Alll torque gears shifting and lots of huge bumps to control over the steering. Wrong move and down the cliff i go. However i'm glad nobody sprint and racing at face pace else it would have drain my power and heavily tired which soon ruin my Monday mood, Along the way other ten enjoying bright sunny blue day and challenging rides over various terrains and turn we also witness the destruction of mother nature which along the way the forest heavily cutdown for development and agriculture activity, lots of tree been cut down and our favorite canopy trees that used to protect us from heat and sunlight gone down too. Whats lets isd crusty mud, dirt and dried branches. Overall this place is sucks to ride and not much so called "Indiana Jones like adventure compared to my favorite biking town in "Kuching" where everthing is pure adventurous forest. Hope i can travel back to Kuching city someday with my bike. After long ride we settle down nearby plantation estate and have a chat. At the end of the ride its was all about getting back to our finishing point and grab some cold cans of Isotonic. What a day.
