Rough dry adventure

Its very dry and hazy today but it wouldn't stop us having fun in weekends. We're testing the new trails made by friend for upcoming races just nearby Miri public park. Lots of rough spot, spikey bushes, huge drop of downhills and climbing. I got this bad luck where my pedals hitting my swollen legs until the wound got bulging and errupt some goo, lol. I hope the new trails will be ready for races soon. I haven't been racing for more than a year since i've successfully secure 2nd place on last mountain bike race in Bakam motocross trails..

Mind boggling ride.

Last Sunday was a bit mind boggling, despite having going up and down and swirling around dusty and muddy path venture in a new trails, were very much low on fuel after running for hours. Unlike our previous ride this one comes to a dead stop where no ones knows where we are actually going. Were are on top of the work looking high into blue horizon searching for an exit. 1 hour before dark we continue crept through murky dead forest....no joy. At 6.45pm we manage to find our way out by climbing over dense bushy trails leading to the edge of the highest clif where we have to climb down to nearest logging trails which we have to danggling our self going down the steep ravine aided with the help of few riders hand to keep us hagging down slowly toward the ground. 10 minutes before Sunday handful of rider manage to move on to pass by 5 final hill climb before escaping the dark forest. At 7.00pm its totally dark. Since i forgot to bring by portable headlight i have to chase our leading rider Richard who's on his HID light as my only hope of light source. Dangerously we travel at staggering speed blindly on rough and unpredictable trails guided only by narrow spot of lights. 5 minutes before reaching the destination we arrive at local tarmac road which leads to our finishing point where we park our car. Sign of relieve we sped happily for home.

Its very hard to cope with multiple hobby especially when i suppose to go out riding my mountain bikes but still my mind stuck also with R/C racing. So i decide to put thse monster truck hunch back behind me tied to my camelback hydration back and away we go into potential off-roading trails. Bulk and looks weird when riding along the path especially when people see you hunch back with big truck behind your back..but who cares as long you have fun at the end of the day. 2 hobby in 1 day...hooo.hhoooo... here my picture of the day.

Youtube Part 2: Mountain biking through borneo bushy trails.

After going down the hill we then enter into some long bushy trails where it lead to a small local villages, few minutes into thick muddy bushes were finally exit the forest and onto to the pit stop where we parked our car beside the beach, by then its dusk. Sorry for the bad video cam angle because i tuck my PSP inside my pants. Will improve the video recording position after i make a cam mount over the helmet next week. Keep watching for our Sunday activity.

Youtube Part1- Borneo head hunter trails, down the hill i go!

Here are video take from my PSP video cam ( gocam / chottoshot ) which i tuck inside my pants color. Our group mountain biking on Borneos head hunter trails. As shown on video now I'm going down the hill trying to re group with other guys down below the hills. Kinda a bumpy and technical ride. The camera view angle was bad tho since i just tucked in my pants, i'll improve the cam view soon.
