CENTURY RIDE 2008
1) This is the first century ride that i'm participating as a rider. Never heard about this ride until Albert told me about it.
2) The entrance fees is about RM80.00 and the ride is about 100 miles or equivalent to 160km. We took off from Tasek, Ipoh at 7 a.m. We passed through Chemor, Sungai Siput, K.K, Sayong where we had a daunting task of climbing many hills and one of them is Bukit Cermin, later we passed Manong, Kuala Kangsar and back to Ipoh.
3) I was unable to finish the race in the stipulated time of 6 hours in order for me to get certs for below 6 hours. I had several bad cramps during the ride which is due to not properly hydrated before and during the ride.
4) Anyhow i managed to finish the ride in 6 hours 13 min, which i consider better for a first timer since there is a lot rider still behind me.
5) The goodies given to us are worthwhile for what we paid for and i would like to thank the organiser for the brilliant organisation of the ride.
