Sunday Morning Rides - 26th Edition


Sinar Serapi Eco Theme Park - Sun 1st May 2011

Plagued with a series of disappointments the past few Sundays, today was an exception. My ride earlier this morning was as smooth as a baby’s bottom.

It was hardly the case two weeks ago when I suffered a tyre puncture 18km into my ride. I had to walk like a duck (stupid cycling shoes) out to the main road before calling my wife to pick me up. She was still asleep when I called. I must have dialed her number 10 times before she picked up. She gave me that stare of death as she drove me home that morning. I am just thankful to be still alive. Last weekend then was another major disappointment. I was all geared up, opened the main door of the house and the thunder said hello. I was furious when it rained a few minutes later.

This morning was beautiful so I decided to be adventurous. Spiked my drinking water with glucose and I was off for a 2hr ride. I ended up at Sinar Serapi Eco Theme Park at the foothills of Gunung Serapi. The park was not opened yet when I arrived. But from the main entrance I observed that it was a rather "budget" theme park. Personally I think the place looks half done. I was quickly on my way after a few minutes of rest as it was starting to drizzle. Fortunately it was just a passing cloud. I reached home and clocked another 43km to my odometer.
