Woke up in the morning with heavy painful sore and muscle ache all around my body. Hardly able to pickup anything heavier then my pillow. Its all due to heavy biking activity yesterday. We went to Miri Tropical Rainforest resort with special invitation from the management. The place is very nice pure tropical feeling all around us. Green lush trees, cold breezy wet afternoon and the forest was packed with wild plants.
We bike around the forest but mostly we have to climb around the terrain a lot with bikes over the shoulder for hours. Wasn't a good moments when every slips, fall, crashed, tumble and hit some trees or rocks. Lucky were on safety equipment. More 3 hours in the narrow foerst trails going up and down felt like stuck in there for a month. Some of us almost give up in the middle of nowhere waiting for rescue. I almost tought i'm going to be stuck here making headlines on the news papers due to unexpected tragedy. Plus heavy rain pour on us making terrain more difficult to climb and slippery. With strong will and determination we manage to escape from grungy twisting jungle in one piece after climbing to the highest peak in the forest. We bike down back to the next check point towards another exotic places like waterfall reservoir park, riding on very long floating wet and slipperywooden platform almost above the jungle canopy where i almost slip and fell due to slippery tyres and also riding around the lake nearby. We went back before the days getting dark and ready to pack and leave. Its wet and cold, few buddies of mine got out from the jungle unlucky with leeches all over the legs while other including me some cut and bruises after crashing and bumping to some obstacles inside the narrow twisty forest, Welll its worth riding for the days since its a new location for us to explore rather that our usual place we ride every weekend.
