Ride Description: First Ride and Camp of the year.And the bunch of hippies have decided to head towards Ulu Slim for a short and quick one. As with tradition, it's self supported all the way. Simply put, you are what you carry. Bring everything on you own. As long as you can tie it on to the bike or your limbs. Anything goes.
   There will not be any 4x4 sweeping from the back as you ride in. If you are the last rider. That really means your are the LAST rider. So it would make sense to plan your load and food rations properly. Trail is well guarded by the local villagers. They will actually seal the gate at night to prevent any intruders from entering. Which is a good thing. And a parking fee is applicable at the trail head. Camp site is a short 15km ride from the trail head. With relatively flat trail, only the last bit will require a wee bit of whip cracking to get in to the camp site. Camp site is fairly large with lotsa space to spread out for camp. So no need to sharpen the parang for this trip.
   The guys are hoping the regular 4x4 boys will not show up at the same camp site. Otherwise, the camp site might get a bit cramped and noisy. The 4x4 boys usually will bring in a generator, a fridge, welding machine, 2 suckling pigs and probably 6 barrels of beers. So let's keep our fingers crossed.
   See you on Saturday for another weekend of mud...!!!
