RIDE ALERT - Planned Saturday Rides (Saturday 15th of September)

OK this is the new format. I used to send out an email for planned Saturday rides but barely ever heard back from anyone; except Chris that is and since he lives in the UK his reply was always that he couldn't make it! Funny that!

So from now on I'll post what the plan is at some stage during the week and if you intend to join then click onto "comments" at the bottom of the post and let us know you're coming and where we should look out for you. (If you don't then don't blame us if we don't notice you getting the bike out of the car and whizz past).

Saturday 15th September - Port Dickson
Sam has clearly stated what the plan is in an email so I'll just cut and paste that here. Any Kajang/Bangi based riders, I'll be joining at the Shell petrol station opposite side of the road from the Country Heights back entrance and I intend to do 140k or less as I'm still recovering. So if 180-200k as stated seems a little much then feel free to join me.

"Folks

The ride on Saturday will be to PD via Dengkil and Morib. This is a new route for some of us and according to Uncle Don; the section from Dengkil, Banting, Morib to Sepang is fairly flat and similar to what we can expect in Busselton. We will check on distance when we get to Sepang but the aim is to do between 180 and 200k. The target time to return in PJ/Mont Kiara is 2pm.

For those coming from Mont Kiara/PJ, meet at the Kerinchi Link exit onto the Federal Highway (just before the exit to Mega Mall) at 0615. For those coming from KL/Cheras/Kajang, meet at the second toll (the one after the Hulu Langat exit) at 0650. Simon: will you join us at the second toll or at the Country Heights exit?

The route will take us along the Silk Highway passing Kajang and Country Heights to Putrajaya before we take the exit to Dengkil. From there, we follow the signs to Banting, Morib and Sepang where we will stop for some makan! The aim is to have a quick food stop and drink stops in the interest of getting back on time.

Confirmed riders are KK, Cris, Carmen, Gane, Lisa, Tom, Cecil, Simon and me. Uncle Don may join us too. KK: please forward this message to Gane and Lisa. I assume you have their e mail address, thanks).
