I came early to the train station thinking that I can negotiate for a better fare (trying to pull a fast one on the lady) anyway the fare was RM4.60 from Kepong Sentral to Rasa. |
I don't really have much opportunity to do this kind of activity, pack your bike travel on a train to a desired destination and ride around....should do it more often..... |
10 of us started from Kepong Sentral Train Station and the time was around 6.50am |
The train is expected to arrive any moment at this platform. |
Welcome aboard!!! Everyone was in the best of mood enjoying every minutes of it including the train ride.... |
Unfortunately we have change train and catch a connecting one to Rasa, well... a bit of exercise is good and fun. |
The connecting train has yet to come but it was short wait at Rawang. |
Chris & Jimmy came in time to join us on the same train though it was a bit of rush for them but they made it. |
We will be disembarking at Rasa station and expecting to meet a few more friends there who drove instead of taking train.
Unpack, unfold and all set to ride a bicycle......

Let's gather here for a group photo |
An aunty came and join us for a group photo session....it was so sporting of her.... |
This is not the final group there are a few more waiting at Kuala Kubu Bahru... |
Every time when we ride through a town we make sure heads are turned.....cos all the sudden a swarm of colourful mini bikes with helmeted riders passing through them which they hardly see it.
From Rasa heading towards Kuala Kubu Bahru. |
Another eight to go.... |
A total of 37 riders including a couple of young kids forming the entire troop for the battle....what a great outing on a beautiful Sunday. |
Three of us went to the local market to buy roast pork and some local kuih muih. |
Siew Yuk specially purchased from the KKB market. |
This eating shop is famous for Wan Ton Mee and the business was extremely good. |
Our Muslim friends coming back from their breakfast. |
All fuelled up and were ready for Sg. Chiling. |
The ride immediately after KKB town was excellent with tall trees canopying over the road but not the other half before the dam there weren't any shade hot & barren.
Regroup at the entrance of the dam while a few more have yet to reach... |
We are funny species and will do anything to attract attention...... |
What a scenic view.
The famous old steel bridge of Sg. Chiling where the British used to cross on their way to Fraser's Hills. |
And here we were at the entrance of the fish sanctuary of Sg. Chiling. |
A short off road ride into the sanctuary. |
We stopped here to rest and have fun. |
I hope one day these two boys will trace this photo when they grow up. |
Crystal playing with the friendly fishes (Kelah). |
The called it Sg. Chiling Laksa and without any hesitation I ordered one. The gravy is different from the Northern States with a more spicy & hotter taste and it was awesome. |
I took my time slowly to savour this lovely laksa and I get high on it. What a good discovery I like it. |
Leaving "Santuari Ikan Sg Chiling" after a good rest at the water course.
We saw these 4 "Ang Mo" enjoying their weekend in the cool river and an icebox of cold beer. What a way to spend their weekend in Sg. Chiling...thumb up!!! |
Back and out into the blazing hot road to KKB. |
A few of us chose the Cendol of Kuala Kubu Bahru found near the Post Office. |
The laksa assam of KKB would be great if it's not that salty and nothing like the one we tried at the fish sanctuary. |
The clock tower built sometime in the 1930's to commemorate the coronation of King George VI and Queen Elizabeth. |
Xinme & Joe having a good home cooked meal. |
Waiting for train these days isn't that bad and long... |
Rawang we will be back here for more connecting trains especially if we are travelling north. Maybe our next destination will be Ipoh kita mali......
