Desaru 2007 Long Distance Triathlon
This Blogger made the trip down to Desaru , with 2 mates Adeline and Adrian.
Took a morning drive down to Desaru after breakfast. Frequent stop for meals and leaks.
Very chirpy feeling with the mixed feeling of excitement and the readiness to Go..
We reached there roughly about 3.30pm and without much hesitation we took to the registration booth and signed our soul away along with 80 ringgit to boot....
Usually when you sign your soul away to a triathlon.. you tend to see the light..
While waiting for the rest we took a short 500 meter swim to taste Desaru. bouyancy is pretty good. Except those lil critters which loves biting swimmers..(Wonder how they look like..)
By the time comes at 5 .30 all the usual faces is spotted and one thing for sure , everyone is hungry but still we had the Race briefing by the trijokerdirector Mr Chan where it is mentioned that " The Whole Race Course is YOUR TOILET bowl...feel free to do it anywhere" Fuckin A man...best statement ever.
The guy on the left aint looking at the bike... mind you....
A Planet X sales pitch on 12k carbon weave... The lady asked : what kinda of cross-stitch is that??
We started to make growls in tummy & hungry = Angry.
We decide to have carbo loading dinner that's like with a drive to some unknown town.. everyone in the car was quiet and hungry thinking " are we like there yet?" Need Rice to Race brudder!
Everything Taste so darn good....
It was a Feast of Fury ( notice a table full of 100 Plus , confirm you got a bunch of cyclist... )
Without this meal we would not had made it thru desaru ... Adrian would not had a 500 meter sprint to the finish line if it wasn't for that last tofu he swallowed.
Okay so we filled out stomach , when we got back we filled out bottles...
A black 12k weave erection ... with 2 yellow testosterone filled balls......Just what Adrian needs for his race .... 
Thought is was a 330 km untill i told him its only 3x30 km
Ah ! the T1 line.... which i will never forget..its supposed to be a Rainbow you twit.....bet the ppl didnt even realized it..
The womens club.. Gezuz wtF is that 2 guys staring at..pervs...
Yeah , thats a mighty fine pump you got there...
Lizi ,Jason and Me ( Hin Tong was mirco-adjusting his bike position thus able saving micro seconds , thus wasnt available for this shot.)
Jasmine.. she didnt want to take this shot.. unless i re-program her Cateye to do 35 kmh average....... .i swear that bike is going to hit the lady in the pic backdrop.
10 seconds before the Hammer goes down...
So the race started 10 seconds earlier.. remembered everyone was just chatting unaware of the whistle blow....anyway then everyone swam , they brave the waves.. they swam and swam.. then they just gave up reaching ... they didnt ever reach the 1st buoy... well.. most did.. and most didnt...
Well. i'd say its a tough tough swim..everyone knows it..thats why some decide to skip the 1st buoy....Those of you who didnt..Good for you..you were faster...
For me i took it at 1 hour. Coz i was heading no-where and those sea lice was playing Tic -Tac-Toe with me....realized it took some trick to beat the rip tide.
Getting out to T1, Grab the bike.. wear the stuff.. and go>go> go> fucking cycled like a i was bike thief. i was overtaking alot maintaining 32 at 55 km mark..at 1hr40 minutes. Untillllll i crashed... (Shit. i bet you already know.. but want to read this anyway)
Looking back i had really goood memories with this bike....this picture was taken the night before...
and at approximately 1.20- 1.20pm the next day, i cant ride with her anymore...
So What the Fuck Happened ?
Ask this guy name JASON WONG Race No 259 from Singapore, whom decide its alright to stop in the middle of the road to start puking saying "i want to puke"and then said he was "about " to pull side.....You piece of shit..you pull aside immediately, you selfish retard. He also decided to Leave Town..after he DNF.....
Jason Wong if you reading this, your a major faggot and i do remember your face that's all i can say....
Fast forward... got back to the starting line on a motorobike,while carrying my bike...threw the bike on thew ground..and the final jab was the tactless idiot MC drew on his microphone... "108 YOU DID NOT FINISH THE RACE" and in the mids of everything lost my bento bag.. ( Mr Chan found it back, thank you very much)Thanks BikeBoutique for the SportsBean, just to make me feel a lil better...
Calm down and decided to Run the 21km ... No.. didnt smile thru the 21 km...it was 100% pure anger extract that powered thru while having pain all over..finished it in 2.30. fuck it hurts.
hell yeah .. you bet i was angry.. why should i not be?
The friends whom was there, the frend who called. the frends whom smsed me , the frends whom knew but didn't want to bother me. Thank you, you know who you are..i really appreciate your positive side....
Took a long time to update... coz spend time on googling frame reviews ;) got to look forward... man..
Well if you want to see the bike its in http://www.bikeprobicycle.com/
