A ride to the shoreline..
Hey folks!
Was joined by Mr Money of Strida Bikes Malaysia and Kamo, the official Strida Ambassor on a 78km ride from Morib - Bagan Lalang. (Initially, we wanted to head to Port Dickson, but decided to head towards Bagan Lalang instead)
Thank you Mr Money, for the Jipun Char Koay Teow treat and the awesome Sang Yuk Pow! :thumbsup: :clap: :thumbsup:
Here are some highlights in photos..
Michelle and her Jetstream
The Stridaguys setting up their ride..
Samo, sweeping Kamo...
A cool customer along the route..
There's ample room for motorbikes and bicycels enroute from Morib to Tg Sepat..

Kamo said his butt hurts, not used to the bike settings yet, so, we stopped so his backside can get some temporary relief. Mr Kamo has toured the entire Peninsular Malaysia on a moutain bike and a rattan basket as his gear carrier...
Michelle, scouting the scene..
Kamo, adjusting his Strida's saddle..
More tuning on the bike..
On the road again..

We've completed our ride..
The bikes are dirty...
Michelle and I clocked about 78km on this loop..
After working out a good appetite, we rewarded ourselves with a fried noodles treat..
This place is famous..
Endorsed by the Chinese language newspapers..
At the end of a hard day's workout, a simple treat!

Great photos. Did the Stridas have any gearing? When I saw the resort I thought how cool but you made the comment crappy, how so? Thanks for sharing your adventures with us.

Nice travelog, makes me want to visit one day. Are you a chef by any chance? Your sig suggests it and food seems to play an important part in your journey. In my travels I've always preferred little stands off the beaten path.
Seeing Stridas 'in the wild' has piqued my interest. The pics give a good feel of their scale and how they handle in a not so urban landscape.

The resort? Mmmpph! Lousy service and very overpriced for Malaysian standards..
