7:30am All set to start a day ride to Carey Island & Jugra for Beggar Chicken (By the way, today is the King's Birthday) |
|
We started from Bandar Sunway. Estimated distance to and fro is 120km. |
|
A word of advice and this is important, a breakfast like this Roti Canai Teluk Bawang plus two half boiled eggs was necessary. By the way breakfast was at Restoran Lima Bintang @ Bandar Sunway, a popular meeting place among cyclists in this region. |
7:45 - We reached the traffic light junction of Jalan Kewajipan into KESAS highway.
7:48 - a few friends joined the group at this Bus Stop after the said traffic light.
8:23 - more riders joined us at Kota Kemuning and making the group to a no of 30 over.
9:00 - We emerged from all housing schemes and went into a new horizon of kampong setting.
I enjoy the riding of folding bikes, this is a 20" wheels bike Dahon Speed P8 and a portable bike.
|
A rest near this kampong house where we bought drinks, pump air into tyres and relieve our butts. |
|
9:45 - we were at a busy road @ Teluk Panglima Garang and the road sign shows straight ahead. |
9:51 - We were already in the territory of Carey Island but encountered a wrong route hence a detour was required.
|
10:03 - we corrected the route and continued our invasion to the inner Carey. |
|
10:49 - I managed to reach to the tip of this straight boring road and had a good view of the sea, total mileage clocked was 56km. |
|
11:01 - The weather was extremely hot and the riders were all extremely thirsty , this stall at the end of the world has probably the best sale of the year, all 100 Plus drinks have sold out and business was such a brisk. |
|
Some colours to break the monotony of the boring & tiring ride at Carey Island |
|
11:45 - SK Yeong were out checking a historical site of Carey while we waited here for instruction. We have to be careful with our usage of leg muscles. |
|
12:10 - A search for a place to rest and drink was desperate and one was found nearby. |
12:25 - we were done with our thirsty bodies, some began to complain they are hungry & need food badly. Even though our pre-ordered beggar chicken is awaiting us. Another 35km or so for the chicken.
|
12:30 - we decided to have a preliminary round of food before the beggar chicken at Jugra. |
1:30 - An hour rest and light food before we proceed our journey of truth.
|
2:05 - we reached Jugra Lama town and seek confirmation & direction to de wanted Place. |
|
2:20 We arrived at the place that caused pain to my body at Bukit Jugra just for a taste of beggar chicken. The punishment was worth it. |
Restaurant Bukit Jugra (Banting)

Bukit Jugra (Permatang Pasir),

|
Straight from the "oven", clay removed & ready to be savoured by us. |
|
The beggar chicken. |
|
The beggar chicken after it had being invaded. |
|
The beggar glutinous rice. |
|
The beggar pork knuckle. - I preferred this than the chicken. |
|
Some even "tau pau" back home. |
|
4:00 - we passed by again Pekan Jugra Lama and the thought of cycling back home which is approximately 50km plus with full stomach was ready scary. |
|
4:23 - Across a challenging bridge. |
5:19 - We cleared Teluk Panglima Garang and could not wait to enter the motor lane of KESAS.
|
The motor lane is safe but be careful of fast motor bikes. |
|
The sun was starting to set and the feeling is funny, home seems to be far away. |
|
6:45 - Getting nearer to our base but frankly speaking the last 20km cycling seems to be the hardest. |
|
6:15pm - Finally I reached the base and my car was waiting for me to change my mode of transport. |
|
Those who reached earlier were seen relaxing and eating their favourite mamak food. |
|
The ultimate satisfaction is my achievement to clock such a mileage. Never before & See you again. |
