   The plan was to complete 30km of Kiara. Then proceed to the official clubhouse for the post ride celebration. Checked. The beer promotion was still available. Up till late or last working kidney. Or whoever sings Happy Birthday the loudest.

   Come Sunday.

   Phone starts blinking like Christmas. Woke up to 154 Whatsapp Messages. Huh? Didn't we win the election already? Why the flooding? Scratched a bit of something. Spidey walk myself to the toilet for the usual pre-ride gossip reading on the the throne. Blinked.

   One by one. Riders were dropping out like dead lemmings. First out was Oily. She claims her tummy was upset with her. She couldn't find her 6 pack. Next up Jowei. He claimed he ran out of hair shampoo. VC said he felt cold all over. Bob said he was headed out towards Kiara. Then he remembered he has goat genes. Rain makes him itchy. Borky changed his mind because his twin Bob pulled out. Razlan claimed he drove all the way there to be told to go home by some superior powers that be. Pete claimed he was stuck to his toilet bowl. Ricky had no excuses. So he showed up alone at the car park. And waited like all good boys should be, when told to wait.

This is Ricky.

   Choi claimed he lost his nuts. Mei clearly told us she is allergic to Nutella. Tey suddenly developed logic. Borky re-text to claim his injured knee was still uncooperative. Dennis suddenly remembered he has a business trip to Manila on Monday. So he can't ride Kiara.
   KC woke his spirit up to go riding around the housing area lor. VC suggested someone go open Brewhouse at 8am. WC added sealant but still couldn't figure out why it continued raining. He was sure he added in the correct amount of sealant. Sealant. Not milk he stole from his kid.
   VH decided to come Kiara. For breakfast.
   5 more claimed their phone ran out battery. Unker was apologetic. He was getting married. The other UMNO boy claimed the doctor was at fault for not letting his mum rest at home and somehow, someone was corrupted. And he had to go review the video for proof. Albert had his nasi lemak at home. Gerard wished someone had sent him the tracklog for Kiara.

Mud eating party of  9.

   Ride finally took off at 9:00 am.
   9 out of 21 showed up.
   Kiara 3.0 became Kiara 4.0 hours with 12.8km distance covered.
   And the call me the Un'believable.

   My Bak Kut Teh was served piping hot. I stared at the rising steam for the longest time. Hmmm.... Pretty sure this taste much better than wet mud and sweaty apples. Went back to sleep, woke up for my Curry Fish Head lunch. Stared at my curry stained fingers, wondered how Handsome Hanz will feel now if i send him a photo of the Grouper Head i am having a staring contest with. Aunty 13 must be having so much fun watching her maid wash her poo colored jersey. Ricky... well, this one just smiles a lot. Ask him yourself when you see him.
   Sigh.... 3.0 worrr....

  Un'believable.
