How to Get There .. By Road
For guests driving from Kuala Lumpur to Pangkor Island, the entry point to the island is the nearest town on the mainland known as Lumut town.
The journey is approximately 280km and will take around 4 hours. Take the North South Expressway, starting at the Damansara toll plaza, heading for Ipoh. Exit at the Bidor toll plaza where the charges are approximately RM15.80 per car.
The rest of the journey will be on trunk roads. You will pass through Bidor where there is a Shell petrol station on your left if you need to refuel.
Follow signboards stating “Pelabuhan Lumut” or “Lumut Naval Base”. You will then need to follow signboards to “Teluk Intan”, “Sitiawan” and “Pulau Pangkor”. The journey from Bidor town to Lumut jetty is approximately 110 km, or 1 ½ hours.
There is a car park next to the Lumut jetty with a nominal fee of RM10 per day for overnight parking. |
Pick Tasha and Yana up, went for lunch first then leave KL at about 3 pm. The rest of the gang should be there already to register n stuff. Botak is not feeling well this few days.
This might affect his performance.
Arrived at Lumut around 7 something. Meet the gang for a the tarik at this nasi kandar shop behind KFC (they have really nice cheese Nan) borak2 kejap then of to the hotel (Hotel Putra) unpacked. Turun bawah kejap ambik gambar at the Water Front. Yana “ Jom kiter pose Berek 1” …. Salute….
After that, freshen up and of we go for dinner at Teluk Rubiah. Along the way there’s signs showing 3 km run .. alamak apasal nampak jauh sangat. Thanks to Isekb for the lovely dinner …. Kenyang bangett….
6.00 am the alarm clock rings, the two sister’s are still sleeping. Syok nyer kalau bole sambung tido. In my running shoe’s already. Open the door “Hujan …..”. Didn’t see any of the racers. May be they are thinking what I’m thinking … “go back to sleep”. But its too late Yana has conquered the bed ….. Tasha still sleeping …
Went up to room 306, Adek n Eppot already awake. Took of my shoes and ambush their bed instead. Kak Ina and Cha’ aka support team is still slepping. Went to the boys room, everybody is ready off ...to starting line.
One by one category has been flag off. Its time for the sprint category. Me and Adek at the starting line eyeing other participants. Being interviewed by the cameraman Jon “Do u guys think u can win?” we both answer “ aaaaaaaaa ….” And laugh together.
The race starts …….
Few seconds after that somebody at the back was shouting … “adik adik .. kawan adik jatuh kat belakang”. As I turn back …AdeK was not at the back … what happened??
As I was running banyak la pulak kena potong. Halfway of the 3km run I was cut by Kak Faizah .. alamak nie tak bole jadi. Try to keep up with her pace. But was left behind. As the first 3km run finished … into the transition, pick up the bike at the same time trying to swallow the power gel …off we go cycling 20 km. Flat road makes it much harder as you have to kayuh consistently. Far in front I saw someone in the sprint category, apalagi kejar la …. Made it at the first half of the cycle. Still a long way to go.second half of the ride is still torturing as the first. One of the cyclist “Can you keep up?” Apalagi ngekor la kat belakang. But he’s using a road bike. Trying my best to keep didn’t realise I just cut another sprinter … WooHoOoo .. Baru la bersemangat sikit.
Made it to the transition, left the bike. Trying to finish another half of the power gel.Another 3km run. As I was running saw another sprinter struggling to finish the race. I set my mine “if only I could cut her…” and I did. About 1.7m saw another sprinter about 100m infront of me. Did the same thing and achieve my goal. All the morning runs and the afternoon cycling did paid off.
As I was running to the finish line, by the side of the road my cousins (oo they are up) tengah jerit “Gombak Clan, Gombak Clan” … waakakaka .. terharu pulak ader supporter nih. Anyway it was a good satisfying race.
Ooo before I forgot, what really happened to Adek?? Someone from the back accidentally tripped her. She fell, bergeser kulit kat jalan raya. Almost give up tapi semua orang suruh dia bagun lari ….. everybody is being so supportive .. terharu nyer.
Went back to the hotel, Checked out, went for lunch at this kedai nasi kandar. Tasha was hoping to have the cheese nan but was dissapoited as they only serve it for braekfast and evening.The rest of the food was delicious n quite cheap.
After all of the shopping, sightseeing and stuff we all went back home. KL
Thanks to all those who came to support Tasha, Yana, Kak Ina, Cha’, Maznie and the supporting aunty (Mama Pisha). 
Congratulations everybody 
more pics will be uploaded soon ...
