My activity for this weekend was cycling - Zofian invited me to his favorite cycling place at Labi located at Simpang 1041 of Sg.Liang - Labi road called Empang Kargu (Kargo Dam).
The distance to dam is around 7 km and journey back gives a total of 14 km. We decided to cycle to the next Taman Rekreasi which is located ~ 13km away from Empangan Kargo.
The weather was excellent! Sunny throughout the trip and we took around 3 hours to complete the trip.
Highlights:
- Using my new SCOTT MTB bike
- Saw several people along the way to Empangan Kargu with their cameras - bird/animal watching.
- I fell from my bicycle on the way to Taman Rekreasi Luagan Lalak (lost concentration)!!
- Views from both Empangan Kargu and Taman Rekreasi was Awesome!!!
- Met with Pg Hamzah of Kg Sg Tali at during our pit stop. Thank you for belanja'ing kami!!
- can hear the sound of the jungle along the Sg Liang - Labi main road (car window down).
Total distance around 38km (from bicycle meter). Not sure why runkeepers apps stop recording at 27Km.
