It was day 2 of the Summer Ride 2007. We all gathered at the coffee house for the hotel breakfast as early as 7am..while waiting for the rest to come down,check out and have their breakfast, some took the opportunity to wipe their machines from last nite's rain.
After our routine group foto session in front of the hotel,we rode off from the hotel at 9am sharp heading to the nearest petrol kiosk to refuel. Then off we all rode to Kelantan via Baling, Tasik Banding, Jeli route.
We even stopped by at Tasik Banding for a quick snack & drinks. At this point, a fellow biker, riding a Honda ST (obviously having no CB radio to communicate between other bikers) had over shoot the pit stop and fellow GWS Fendi had to run after him. Fendi finally manages to catch the ST at Jeli, which is abt 90km away.
At the Tasik Banding route, not only a fellow GWS winger had fell down during one off the twisting turns plus our fellow Voyager biker also fell during a steep hill u-turn manouvre.. we witnessed a fatal accident involving an army vehicle..all of us rode slow after that..
At 1pm..we all had lunch at Puncak Titiwangsa, which was the highest point of the Banjaran Titiwangsa..while taking breath taking pictures of the gorge.
We continued our journey at 2pm sharp heading towards Terengganu. We had contacted Terengganu Bikers much earlier to update on our journey progress..
We met up with Terengganu Bikers' Hj Tarmizi (A fellow winger) at sharp 4pm just before the Kelantan-Terengganu border..after a short & quick refuel, we were joined by other Terengganu Rider's Group (TRG) bikers whom escorted us to the hotel, which was another 100km from the border.
We arrived at Permai Park Inn Hotel at around 5.30pm..after a brief check in procedure done by me, everyone got their room keys by 6pm. Then its rest time for all of us whom had travelled for more than 300km.
Sharp 8pm all of us wingers had waited downstairs at the lobby for TRG bikers to come fetch us and escort us to Restauran Putri,a floating restaurant in the heart of Kuala Terengganu.
We were greeted by a kompang troupe and after a few short speeches, the Terengganu Tourism Department gave GWS a traditional dance performance, displaying Terengganu's local traditional dances. GWS Tyson was also called to the stage to join in for a joget session.
We ended the nite at the floating restaurant with a group foto together with the Terengganu Bikers.
Although it rained during dinner, all of us had fun..we rode back to the hotel and rest for the nite..another long day ahead tomorow as the route will be Kuala Terengganu-Kuantan-Singapore(for some) & KL(for the rest).
