Last Monday (24/03/2008) I went back to Taiping alone riding my MZ 125SX motorbike. The week prior to that I suddenly realise it was long ago that I had last seen my grandmother. To go back by car, it would cost me at least RM100- RM200. So that's why I chose to ride my bike.
That was the second time I took the bike for a long distance trip. The first was during my wife confinement period in Palong after the birth of my second son, 1 and a half year ago. Now the bike is worst off. The rear shock is gone so the butt is taking more punishment this time.
The trip started 9.30 a.m from Puncak Alam. By 12.00 noon, I was in Ipoh and had lunch with old mates there. It was 1.45 p.m that I continued my trip to Taiping. Reached Taiping araound 2.45 p.m and went straight to "cendol" near Georgy secondary school. Fuhh... first bowl with the "pulut bakar" and the second bowl just a normal cendol... Wahhh... I love the taste of the real "cendol".. couldn't get it here in KL.
After satisfying my cendol crave, made a move to Makteh's house. My "Tuk" is there. She looks so fragile now... with not much muscle left... It sure reminded me of all this youth and strength will one day leave us all. After about 1 hour I said bye to Makteh and Tuk and started my trip home.
Around 4.50 p.m. I reached near Sg Perak rest stop area. It started to rains heavily. I stop there and catch a nap. At 5.30 p.m. I left the rest stop. The journey from then onwards was on and off rain. However I brave onwards to reach home as soon as possible. One reason being its getting cold and another was my butt was really really sore.. must make note, before another long distance trip, I must get the cushion done.
Around 9.00 p.m. I reached Puncak Alam and was really tired and could use a rest. After a bath and dinner, I went to sleep. Hopefully next long distance trip I can get a bigger cc motorbike. An average of 85 km/h really doesn't cut it, I would really love to get a bike where I can speed faster than the car.. so next time if I want to eat real cendol again.. hehehe... I can just vroom to taiping...
Ciao..
