alhamdulillah i'm still alive. the night before #dirtbiking i kept wondering if it was my last night on earth. 1. we're lucky it didn't rain. the sun was scorching above us tho; almost heat exhaustion + inhaled so much smoke 😖 was lethargic & gasping for fresh air (drama 👸) by 1/2pm #shagbodoh wished i brought ❄ isotonic drinks + ladang kelapa sawit got natural toilet je, mcm trekking. 2. they have a small pit bike for me 😄 the gear was diff from cdc bike; gear ⬆ must step ⬇, gear ⬇ must kick ⬆. doesn't help that my feet can't feel anyth in those power rangers boots. so i played a balancing game trying to lower gear w MY HANDS. circus. 3. power rangers gear! 😎 elbow & knee/shin guards over clothes, rental shirt & pants over everything, then the boots & gloves. just don't wear too tight. 4. guides din & jeff were super patient w me 😱 after a year of not riding, #whatishalfclutch so the engine kept dying everytime we stopped 😢 only familiarised w changing gear towards the end 😑 & everytime i tried to kick start my engine, nothing happened. 😔 it stalled more times than i fell okay tu paling #burden so sorry geng. 5. yes of coz we fell 🙈 1st fall: riding downslope, slid forward above the bike. mud mummy mud! (here's one of them #falling vid #kakitaksampai, enjoy.) 6. i felt myself FLY too! 🐦 during our practice rounds i sped up when riding at the humps; the bike went ⬆ & my body went ⬆ too. tt was freaky but i held onto the handlebars extremely tight so i'm ok! ✌ 7. trainings at CDC still helped la, i rmb the instructors saying "where you look is where you'll go; you look ⬇, you go ⬇." so thru all the obstacles, i just looked ahead, prayed & throttled 🙊 8. legit blessed w my EBC geng, just jio & all set to go 👍 booking grab, 🚑 gummy bear & helping me skip the parts i dun wanna / kenod ride thru 😭 you guys bayeklah srsly THX2 🙆 9. it was satisfying to be able to ride thru some parts of the rocky / bumpy / muddy / sloping terrain esp when i didn't expect i could make it. i almost lost control of the bike at some parts so just that second of panic je #achievementunlocked #bruised #nogutsnoglory #adventure✔ it was fun 👏
