Off Road Felda Guar Napai

Tarikh: 18 Sept 2010
Trek: Padang Sera- Felda Guar Napai- Felda Batu Lapan, Changloon
Kaki kayuh: Ustaz Raja, Suhaidi Celcom dan zn
Jarak: 28KM

Mula mula cuma nak kayuh road saja tiba tiba tiba ter off-road di laluan Felda Guar Napai bersambung ke Felda Batu Lapan. Nak buat camna sebab lepas geram tak habis lagi. Walau apapun trek ni memang layan sebab ada road dan off-road melalui jalan berbukit beralun dan suasana teduh dirimbuni pepohon getah dikiri dan kanan jalan.

Laluan banyak dipandu oleh Suhaidi yang cukup ariff dengan kawasan sekitar dan laluan laluan penoreh getah. Terdapat banyak lagi kawasan disini yang berpotensi untuk di teroka.

Jerai Merdeka

Pendakian demi pendakian langsung tidak menjemukan. Gunung Jerai terus menggamit pengayuh-pengayuh basikal dari seluruh pelusuk tanahair ke puncak merdeka. Perasaan merdeka menguasai minda ketika di puncak. Satu perasaan yang sukar digambarkan. Kejayaan melepasi kongkongan dan kekangan. Kejayaan melepasi halangan seperti membuka injap oksigen untuk pernafasan yang lebih luas.

Gerekbaru merakamkan penghargaan kepada Zul Fuji yang sanggup datang dari Penang untuk bersama sama memeriahkan kayuhan. Sebenarnya saudara Zul bukanlah asing kepada pengayuh pengayuh di kawasan Jitra kerana orang rumahnya berasal dari Malau, Jitra. Selepas ni bila balik Jitra, jangan lupa bawa balik gerek bersama sama.

Haribulan: 16 Sept 2010

Pengayuh tegar: Ustaz Raja, Zul Fuji, Yap Polimas dan zn

Back On Saddle

Date: 14/09/2010
Location : Bukit Payung and Bukit Wang, Jitra,Kedah.

During fasting month, most of riders only ride lightly and today they are back on serious business. As usual after long idle, a lot of riders are feeling the heat. Some just want to return back, some are feeling the blackout and some are crash on the ground. Anyway, this is a good start up training.

Aidil Fitri Greeting

Gerek Baru mengucapkan Selamat Hari Raya kepada semua pembaca, pengikut dan rakan taulan tidak kira di mana saja berada. Aidil Fitri adalah perayaan menyambut kemenangan mengekang hawa nafsu selama 30 hari. Semangat bermaaf maafan dan berkerjasama amat digalakkan.


Amatlah diharapkan dengan kemunculan Syawal, semangat kerjasama dan silaturrahim sesama insan akan terus dihidupkan dan dipupuk tanpa mengira ideologi dan kumpulan. Semoga dalam aktiviti berbasikal ini akan mengembangkan lagi jaringan persaudaraan dan hubungan komunikasi sesama individu untuk lebih mengenali antara satu sama lain dan seterusnya akan membuka ruang kepada lebih banyak jalinan dan muafakat.

Kita sebenarnya berada di dalam era persaingan yang sengit. Persaingan 'head-on' bukanlah cara yang baik untuk bersaing sementelahan kekurangan infrastruktur. Cara yang lebih rasional adalah dengan berkerjasama walaupun keuntungan kurang kerana kedua dua belah pihak berkeadaan menang-menang bukan menang jadi abu kalah jadi arang. Jika kita amati dengan teliti, prinsip ini akan membawa kita ke satu tahap yang lebih tinggi yang tidak pernah kita terfikir.

SELAMAT HARI RAYA AIDIL FITRI, MAAF ZAHIR DAN BATIN
