Bukit Keretapi - We Saw, We Conquered

Just as plan, we rode to Bukit Benut Estate to explore another challenging trail the estate has to offer.  We knew Bukit Benut has a hidden trail that has never been ridden before.  And our target today was to find and enjoy that trail.  All we knew is that, the highest peak is Bukit Keretapi....and that the place we want to park our bike today!!!!!

Kluang MTB welcomes Cikgu Ali, Ham and Suratmin joining our weekend ride.  As usual, Rosdie, Ahmad, Ayie, Arie, Haizal and Kadir made up the group today. 

We took off from Bandar T6 around 0730.  After a few snaps, we headed straight to the estate.  It is a four kilometer ride.

It was an effortless ride for us in the beginning.  But we knew, we had to save all our energy if we dare to conquer Bukit Keretapi.  After asking for direction a number of time, we finally saw the peak of Bukit Keretapi.....Wow!!!!

From the distance, yes it is high enough for bikers like us to handle.  But none of us wanted to go home without taming Bukit Keretapi.

Slowly we paddled to the top.  With no more palm oil trees to shade us from the hot sun, the climb was long and tiring.  The hill was too steep, and sometime it was almost impossible to control the front tire.

We finally made to the top of Bukit Keretapi.  The view from the top, made us forgot how tired we were.....
