Sunday Feb 22 - Fellowship Ride with P2K(KL) and UCI(Ipoh)

This is a friendly fellowship kind of ride with cycling club from KL (Peleton2K) and Ipoh UCI (United Cyclist of Ipoh). Total distance is 158km covering lots of outskirts of Kedah and northern Perak. Will start from Jabatan Hutan at 7.30am sharp. The ride will be supported by couple of support vehicles and some light refreshments. Most of the terrain are rolling and expect a short but relatively steep climb at KM 73 for approx 800m and 4 big/short rolling hills at Km 90 onwards. As we will be riding at quiet and less explored areas, food/waterstops/petrol stations will somehow be limited. We will make 2 official food/refreshment stop at 87 (Kampung Masjid) and 110km (lunch stop at Selama, Perak), couple with 2 regroup points at km 70 and 147 where it is possible to double up as water points too. There will be no official breakfast stop (due to remote location limitation), so pls make sure that you have your breakfast before the start and have enough supplies to last at least the first 70km of the journey. Attached is the simplified directions for the entire route. Looking forward to see all of you this weekend.
