Preparation for the ECC Burung Hantu Jamboree / ECC Night Ride Jamboree 2012

Just before I went to sleep (continue from last night), thought of about preparation for tomorrow night ride jamboree at Malacca, called ECC Burung Hantu (Owl) Jamboree. What should I bring together. Let me share my preparation so, some of you might want to make as the guide, as you are not so sure what to bring together during the night ride.. remember, it is a night ride, in the dark, in the trails.. I heard the distance is about 50 KM, an increased about 5 KM from previous year. Yeeahhaa..

Here are my checklist:

1. Bike Preparation (My standard for any off road ride)

• Spare tube. Bring two is better.
• Pump.
• Basic tools - allen keys, chain tool, some spanar & screw driver. Better bring the compact tool that you can buy from the bike shop.
• Water bottle with water - Minimum is one bottle. Normally in jamboree, water should be an issue, however with the overwhelming participation in this event, heard about 2,200++ participants, you might not depends 100% with the organizer. Bring your own water, two bottle if you could.
• Plastic bag for avoiding wet - keep your mobile phone & car key from getting wet.

2. Addition preparation for jamboree event (not a normal off road ride)

• Energy food - For average riders, we will take longer time to finish a ride in a jamboree. Some organizers provide a banana fruit to the rider. However, for a better planning, just bring your own energy food. I will bring the chocolate bars like the Sneakers or any other brands. I normally bring two bars.
  
  For better & faster absorption, use the Power Bar gel. It will be easier to keep & faster in effect with longer energy support.
• Headlight & tail light - since this is a night ride jamboree, a good front headlight and tail light should be your best friend. Most of the head light using a rechargeable batteries, however, please bring together a spare / extra batteries in case your rechargeable battery run out fast. Check your light battery type before buy the spare batteries.
• Rain coat
• Muscle Relaxation gel / cream - I am using Flanil while my biras is using Yoko Yoko.
• Plastic bag / special bag with compartment for dirty clothes
• extra Clothes for replacement

Alright, see how I will get out from tonight jamboree..

Keep on updated.

ECC Burung Hantu Jamboree 2012 at Melaka / Malacca

Tomorrow is the last day to rest before ride in the ECC Burung Hantu jamboree this year. I had my last ride tonight on my static exercise bicycle at the back of my house as my last preparation for this saturday jamboree. I hope it will help me to endure the 40 to 50 km this Saturday night.

Some of us will take the opportunity to service their bicycle tomorrow at any bicycle shop near their house or that convenience to anyone. This will avoid inconvenince interuption to the bicycle during the jamboree.

I am taking this opportunity to wish everyone a very great ride this saturday. Myself, target to finish it as early as possible, 3 hours and 30 minutes may be ..

Toyota Prius: the gear ... Huh? Like a joystick

I was at the IGEM 2012 show yesterday at the KLCC, the show case of the green technology & innovation. Kind of exciting & cool to see the new stuff display and demonstrate.

One of the thing that I want to share is the Toyota Prius gear stick.. It is really like a joystick.. Really fun to see it.

The gear just have three main functions.. Which I am not so sure what is it mean. I believe it should have the drive, reverse, parking minimum.. Similar to the our current automatic gears..

For your eyes & analysis, here I attached the picture of the gear.. Enjoy..

RM50 for 5 big years!? What? Yes, it is. That's the new & renewal fee for company offered by SSM currently..

Yesterday, my company (Hue Media Ent) was expired and I went to SSM office in Putrajaya to renew it. I don't want to late renew anymore as the penalty fee is normally will be higher than the actual renewal fee. So, renew your company registration earlier to save money.

And they run some kind of campaign this year, as if you renew your company registration now, you only have to pay RM50 for 5 big long years.. Wowww.. That was a lots of saving. Awesome..

I am taking this opportunity to urge everyone & anyone who have a company that expiring, renew it now & take this advantage & saving..

Ok everyone.. I hope you are start to go the SSM office now..

Movers Business well groom at Apartment

From the image below, you can see that along the way just outside of my aaprtment is being a place for movers advertisement.. Almost everywhere you can see the ads.. ;)

the question is why mover & apartment is symbiosed to each other?? Please comment..

Business Month - Being Reality, a bite ..

This month is being a month that I have spending quite a lots if to compare with my current income. I have to pay for the local municipal council (MPSJ) for RM900 for the assesment of my apartment for the last four years. I need to pay that as I am selling of that unit.

Then, another RM2160 for the Ridpest initial fee. This is for the termite service. We have to take it as our neighbour have been attacked. Their kitchen cabinet is started being demolish by this little white ants.

And I just spend about RM2.5k for my hobby.. Fuuhh.. I need to buckle up my selling skill & effort.

I believe, I am in desperate mode already. Hopefully my apartment selling process will be faster so I can have my cash when i needed the most.

I will keep on updated with my financial , be a better..

Beside Bicycle, what else we chat about? Haha

I have work late today, and forgot to take my dinner. While driving home, my stomach start singing, it's time to fill in with something. Immediately I saw the KdB is gathering at our hanging place, the Pakngah restaurant in the whatsapps group. Immediately I drive to that place after whatsapps my wife at home.

And my thought, everyone will chat about bicycle, necxt bicycle events and new parts to be in ;) ... However I was wrong. They talked about the teenages life.. What a surprise.. I believe it started with mr Azlan's picture when he was a handsome chap with no belly.. He is really slim guy. Then all the favourites TV series during the 80s was talk about, the fashion during our teenages life.. Hehe.. Some admitted they was the rock 'kapak' time, rap & GQ, & grunge.. The band name like Def Leppard, Lefthanded, 4U2C - Fiona, Nirvana was mentioned.. The Airwolf, and most remembered the superman that doea not know how to land.. The American Superhero.. Moby dic.. And so ..

Then I realise, when too much bicycle.. It will bond us together.. Like the old school time... And there is lots more to talk about.. Not only bicycle.. Great to know you guys...

Video: Library of Raja Tun Uda in Shah Alam visit with our kids

Hi Everyone,

Yesterday afternoon, we pay a visit to Shah Alam for two purposes. First, my wife need to pay a visit for regular updates to her clients in Shah Alam. My wife is a Financial Consultant for Public Mutual fund. A regular update to the clients is always a trait of her business.

Second, we promise a long due to our kids to visit the new library of Raja Tun Uda in Shah Alam (video link at the end). The library is located nearby the stadium of Shah Alam & opposite of the Kelab Golf Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Shah.

Our kids are very exciting and really enjoying the visit. Even though they not really use the facilities overthere. The kids zone (creative zone) is really a treat to kids. They love it. With all the colourful environment, multimedia facilities (they have xbox kinect ;) wow.. ), and the most interesting is the man made one big tree with green carpet below it. It feel so relaxing there.

I have made a video for everyone to feel the environment (Kids area only with the facilities and surrounding). You might want to bring your kids someday. May be this video will be a guide and also will entice you to come over.. bring your family.. and it feel great..!

Mountain Bike: Training Video "Becoming a Podium Finisher"

UPM Fete Podium Finishers for Alumni Category

Hi again everyone - especially mountain bikers there... during my creation of my first mountain bike video,I have think to produce a series of training video on how to become a podium finisher.

Even the title of the video like a very exaggerate, however, it is a metaphor for becoming a good mountain bikers. The video will expose to the viewer how the podium finisher (they are mainly will be pick from KdB club & outsider too) do the training, food balancing and scheduling, supporting exercises &; mentally ready for extreme of the jamboree races.

It will be a series, since most of us are better absorption slowly, a guide or step by step explanation. The aim of the video is to help all the riders to ride their bike with optimum fun, rather than feeling bad about cycling after few rides, especially the rides between 20 to 45 kms. Wait for this project to happened.. :)

We will keep them posted here.
