Nocturnal animals spotted. |
Great weather great ride! Despite a number of last minute FFK we still had a total of 12 eager beavers, all bright and shinier than a Christmas tree.
Our Korean dictator G is down with a mysterious fever that blemished his
otherwise lifelong record of good health. Vincent (the Hew one) decided to
contribute to PLUS' coffer and took a drive along the NSE to Muar. Unker Danny
decided to do the same and went back to Melaka. King Kenny got a last minute
fever too but not sure if it was the same virus as G's. Chee Hoong and Danny of
the 3 musketeers' fame decided Kiara was daunting enough in the day let alone at
night but CT showed up with double magic on the handlebar. Not unbelievably Pat
messaged to say he had a wedding dinner to attend.... Vincent (the Chin one)
never got back to us whereas Bulldozer Gan had to climb his rooftop to install a
lightning protector before the next lightning strikes to send him back to the
future. Meanwhile Victor went to check out the lights available and came away
with the conclusion that the better ones (he wouldn't touch the not so good
ones) cost as much as a Kancil. Not sure if he meant the animal one or the
Perodua one. Anyway he says he didn't think candles would work so he gave us
a miss.
Tan Sri Bok panicking from darkness |
BBok had a last minute fright when his Magic Shine failed due to faulty
connections. Fortunately he had an array of 16 other torchlights to select from
as a backup so no major issue here. Now we understand more why he has 16 lights.
You never know when your connectors are gonna give up on you.
The Wrench showed up with his Specialized full susp sitting grandly atop
his Nissan on Sea Suckers. Another sucker to add to the list. Says he kept to no
more than 80kph just to be sure his bike was still there by the time he got to
TTDI. Looks like the sucker works. And it took him less than a couple of minutes
to remove the suckers and safely store them in the boot.
WC Chan was about to lose his virginity on a nite ride and you could sense
all the excitement about him. Like a kid let loose in Toys R Us. Arthur too lost
his virginity that night but he was slightly less excited about it, perhaps
distracted by problems he had with his rear shock.
More wildlife spotted. |
Dot finally had the opportunity to try out her brand new rooftop bike rack.
It comes with a stool for her to stand on. Cute, Always thought only KY Jelly
(who came with his son) had that same stool. Oh yeah, Sherman and Choy turned up
too.
Just as we were about to start it drizzled a few drops but that was it. We
had fine weather after that. Did the usual loops that we normally do in the day
- Office, Overtime, Magic Carpet, 2k, Mission reverse, Lower Shot, Twin Peaks,
Flintstones and Carnival. Back at the cars before midnight. The rather humid
weather called for a round of Guinness to smoothen the Hokkien mee down our
throats.
The REAL reason Manta came for night ride. |
Got home smelling dirty (coz I forgot to bring a change of clothe),
showered and ended up with high fever! What a way to end an otherwise perfect
outing.
