Powerman 2007

11th November 2007: A date I will not forget for I was officially self-promoted to CrazyPowerTomatoMan ! Yahoo! I did it! First time lah, so my dualthlon virginity is gone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hahahahha!

However, that power weekend was really power packed lah or packed but no power….err…ah nevermind…

Started with me at car workshop first thing on Saturday morning to ensure no car problem for our PJ - Sri Manjung - PJ trip. After fixing the car’s drive shaft which was called ‘dried-shap’ by the mechanic, I packed my stuff and loaded my friend’s bike into the car and waited for Dr. Rum Ray and Vincent. As usual, Vincent arrived long after Dr. Rum Ray. Biasalah….dia memang kasih orang tunggu lama-lama…

After loading our bikes & bags, 3 stooges with 3 bikes (among other things!) and 6 balls, there we went for Sri Manjung in a car with plate number 336! Coincidence? Hmm….

Italian bike (Pa....some Italian name that I can't remember) which I borrowed from a friend

Went for lunch at section17 and zoomed off to Sri Manjung at 2pm. Highways were jam packed due to polis roadblocks brought about by Bersih campaign. Polis roadblocks??? Oh, this time we didn’t get stopped so no “Ada minum ALKOHOL?” question for Dr. Rum Ray….hehe!

Crikey!!! ‘Dried-shap’ really dried up or something like that cos my car lost POWER on the highway hill heading towards Sg. Buloh R&R. Alamak! We just started the highway and now …noway! Engine was running but car can’t move…we were going for Powerman but car no power. Bummer!!!!

Journey just started but car 'dried-shap' went dried!!!


Vincent: See, I told you wat....now we have to cycle to Sri Manjung
tomato: ............!!!!!!......


Ok, to cut the story short, we were towed back and change to Vincent’s car.




This is what I see throughout the journey. Amazing that Vincent's car can take in all bikes!


Carbo loading dinner was fabulous at Kuala Selangor and after a dark drive, we arrived at Sri Manjung at 11pm after some detours and slightly sesat jalan episodes.


Kuala Selangor carbo loading time.
