Another Sunday, another much anticipated ride to the great outdoors. This time a 33km ride to Kampung Stakan located somewhere off Kota Sentosa or previously known as 7 mile bazaar. It was a pleasant ride without the SHP (Severe Hill Phobia) syndrome of the previous Kampung Danu / Borneo Highland ride which was still haunting us. The highlight of our ride was when we came across a small wooden suspension bridge which was just big enough for motorbikes to pass. Dilapidated as it was, but in the bygone days, it would have been a majestic wonder and a triumph of engineering feat. The river which the bridge spanned was calm, under the light of the early misty morning, punctured by the occasional ripples of frolicking fishes. Otherwise the river reflected a picture perfect mirror of the horizon above. Past the bridge and it was as if we stepped back into civilization again when we reached Kampung Stakan, a Malay village. More modern development dotted the countryside as we past Kampung Stakan and reached Abeng’s house at Stakan Jaya. Abeng, our colleague was rudely awakened by Yip as he could not resist taking out his mobile. From there we retraced our route and headed home but not before stopping by yet another of our colleagues, Henry Ong’s country side home. His cousin is breeding pedigree dogs nearby, so there were no shortages of barks and whistles as we approach. Nice doggie, doggie…. Hey, hey, hey… not the bike! Oh man!
