Many of us from Kuala Lumpur stayed at Ryokan Muntri and were ready to go in the early morning. |
The meeting place was at Tanjung City Marina at Weld Quay Road. The leader gave a briefing and followed by a group photo session. |
We then headed to Beach Street for a breakfast before we cross over to the mainland. |
A visit to Sri Weld Food Court at Beach Street for the popular Ali Nasi Lemak Bungkus. |
Ali Nasi Lemak is served in pack form with banana leave and its has a variety of toppings for you to select. The rice grains are distinguishedly loose and I like it very much. |
Should you want to pay a visit to check out this nasi lemak, this might be a help to you. It is located at this point GPS: 5.417881, 100.342722 |
One hundred over folding bicycles appearing at Penang Ferry Terminal and boarding a ferry to Butterworth. I guess it was a rare sight at the terminal. |
The ferry terminal is next to Butterworth Outer Ring Road and our direction was north bound heading to Sg Dua or Tasek Gelugur. |
We were welcomed by a serene kampong road quiet and lovely to cycle after passing by Sg. Dua town. |
We have arrived at Kg. Guar Petai covered paddy fields and Malay houses. |
At the junction is the road leading to a brick factory. A regroup was called before everyone continue into the site. |
The route passes a clay brick factory, it was wet and at time we have to pushed our bikes. |
As I were cycling along this earth road I recalled the days when I was in Padang Serai where the exposed ground is of red coloured earth and Padang Serai is not too far from this beautiful terrain. |
It was less 2km from the junction we found ourselves hiking into higher levels, taking photos and obviously having a great time. |
Some refer this place as Guar Perahu as it is also near Taman Guar Perahu. |
The crafted landscape terrain was a result of excavation of clay material over the years for brick making. Some also referred as Bukit Tok Alang. |
An ideal view from higher level and amazingly it is such a gem at a place close to where I was born and it's only lately I knew of it. Thank you once again Brompton Penang for organising this ride. |
