I was so excited for cycling with my coursemates. WeiLin, ChunYu, JiaWern, PeiQian, Shane and her girlfriend.
I thought I could learn successfully how to ride. Yeah, I do not know how to ride a bike.
Morning, I went to WeiLin's house to wait for ChunYu to pick us up then go dim sum shop near her house.
After breakfast and thanks to PeiQian's parents for treating us and so we start our journey.
~~~~~~~
I expected the place is flat ground, so it would be easier to learn how to ride.
On the way there, PeiQian described the place that is has hills. First thing on my mind was SHIT.
When we reached there, it was before 8.30am and Shane haven't reached yet. So we need to wait for her only go in.
Oh ya, before I continue with my crap, the place is Taman Pertanian,Shah Alam, I think. Is a agriculture place.
So, the pass ticket was RM3 and another RM 3 for the pass to go to the 4 season house.
I actually wanted to go there (4 season house) since young cause thought I would have the chance knowing my parents don't really bring me this kind of place. I know about this place from a kids show from last time, Kids Disney Malaysia, I think. And I never thought it was that place, so I was like quietly glad that I came along.
So we rent a bike which cost RM 10 for the 1st hour and the rest RM 1 for each hour.
Like I said I don't really know how to ride a bike. WeiLin also do not know how to ride. High five. We spend almost 2 hours on learning how to ride and keep balance. Gosh... how embarrassing...
After that 2 hours, I actually started to get tired, cause yeah, I keep trying to ride when PeiQian won't let me stop until I could ride, which means I hardly stop. The only time I stop is to take photo at a lake and had a drink, 100 plus. WeiLin didn't drink much and gave away her drink and insist she still full from breakfast and hardcore on learning to ride.
Yeah, PeiQian mostly teach me and Jiawern with ChunYu teach WeiLin, sometimes, PeiQian also go help out with WeiLin. ChunYu also sometimes help out with me.
To be honest, the place actually quite pretty. When climbing up the hill was the worst. I can't even really ride and yet PeiQian insisted that to ride up. Hell....
But I know myself that I'm not ready, yet. Seriously!! It's been two hours non stop, my thigh/butt starting to ache from sitting on the bike for too long, my palms were so red until it hurts.
When really on the hill, I gave up and push my bike, I don't care any more. Until we reach Taman Haiwan (animal park), they stop to chill down with cheap popsicle and Maggie mee cup cause Shane didn't have breakfast.
Then while they were resting, WeiLin said we continue practice and tried to ride all the way to the 4 season house. And I took it seriously. I tried to pedal all the way to 2 curve, and WeiLin said go back down with them and push the bike back down. Damn... that time I was already half pissed. I'm already damn tired and push the bike all the way down and back up.
Actually before I walk down without my bike, until I reach them, they asked my to take it down cause scared will be stolen. Okay... I admit that was my fault... but that was a place to put bikes, so that's why I park there, so I no need to waste my more energy to ride/push later.
later, we rested enough we continue and we stop in a canopy cause it started to drizzle. And it stop and we continue again. This time we are not stopping. And ChunYu and PeiQian try to convince me to ride but I know myself that I'm already too worn out to continue. So I stubbornly continue to push my bike
Skip all the torture of my tiredness and some prep talk by ChunYu on riding the bike and some interaction with some monkeys. Cause I know I'm already very long winded
Finally we reach the 4 season house. Shane and her girlfriend went in later cause to keep an eye on our bikes when other went it.
The season now that they are diaplaying was Autumn. I didn't expect the place to be very small, but it was actually quite nice place too. I really hate and moment when most friends keep criticized them, and I actually quite enjoyed it, so I end up just shut my mouth and let the decorations and the coolness take in to my brain.
~~~~~~~
After the 4 season, we spilt up. Shane, her gf, PeiQian, and ChunYu want to explore the place a bit more. But I can't take it anymore, so I only think of going back the fastest way, which was going back from where we came from. Jiawern sense that I don't want to continue so she's coming with us. WeiLin was like also wanted to go with them, but see me go the other way, she follows me.
I feel bad for JiaWern and WeiLin, cause I'm not sure that do they want to continue and go back the fast way.
After all the walking and pushing, we waited for the others in a mamak stall. We waited half way, suddenly Shane's girlfriend reached here, but by bus. Cause she was badly injured. Bleeding and bruises on her knee and scrapped her palm. It look pretty bad, I guessed she lost control while gliding down the hill.
So we continue wait for the others but.. everyone was hungry and thirsty. Jiawern kept calling them to check whether they were almost there. Later, we got a call that they got lost... LOL..... Then Jiawern took a photo of the map to help them find their way back and we couldn't wait, so we went and bought lunch at the mamak stall that we waited for them.
After eating, I heard that they were lost in a forest.. man.. that's dangerous. Part of me relief cause I still don't know how to ride. If I get lost in the middle of the forest is so bad idea for me.
then the manage to return safety, but could see that they were super exhausted.
Yup, one thing for sure, I'm not gonna back there for sure unless I'm really ready to go cycle there, if not I'm digging a grave for myself for the second time.
~~~~~
When I reach home, my butt/thigh very hurt. I could hardly walk without a single pain.
The next morning, my whole ache. I'm really digging my own grave during cycling. Butt/thigh super ache, palm still hurt, arms slightly ache and my armpit/shoulder also quite badly ache.
Haiz... I'm such a weakling T_T
my mom predicted that I will suffer for a week.... great.... =_=
here's some pic I got from Jiawern and ChunYu
