Bike ride to Sedili Besar (re-route) - 29 & 30 April 2006

aka 'Scream for your Momma ride'
our gruelling 132km+ ride, from Johor Bahru - Kota Tinggi - Tenggaroh Selatan - Sedili Besar
the usual route to Sedili Besar is via Mawai but we wanted to try this alternative, albeit - a longer and hillier ride.
we took the coastal road on the way back - via Sedili Kecil - Tanjung Balau - Sungai Rengit - Pengerang - about 98km and a boat across to Changi.
i would say that it was a good training ride before our cycling trip to Melaka next fortnight.
kudos to Nicky for going thru the ride with a full blown flu.
