3 hrs ride to reach cameron top. Coming down more dangerous than going up. Best depart in bright daylight , 3 hrs before sunset. Coz road very twisty and downhill very dangerous especially when dark & raining. Be mindful that downhill always use engine braking rather than normal braking - to avoid yr brake piston overheating & starts leaking = brake failure.

 

Good place to stay is the strawberry park hotel, dunno still existing or not; went there many years ago. Actually 1 nite stay to me is more than enuff, rather spent the other nites in fraser hill, sunway lagoon, times square or Bukit tinggi etc along the way.

 

coming down best

wait4me - sure no prob, erm, might have a room problem though, cos cameroonian inn is quite small. though i have never met any malaysian staying there. its a backpacker place, always ang mohs from everywhere. i think typical singaporean and malaysian cannot stay in this kind of place cos the room no tv etc then girlfriend wife all complain complain. parking is secure though. and its damn cheap. but clean.

 

 

 

fri morning reach, breakfast, then sleep till lunch. after lunch, visit strawberry farm, tea plantation, etc. dinner steamboat, then pasar malam.

 

sat OTOT, normally i will trek or something, like walk from tanah rata to brinchang, or try a trek (there is a guide at cameroonian inn called mr yen or something) afternoon can laze around, lim kopi, read a novel you always wanted to read, go cornering up and down gua musang, basically free and easy, chilling out in the nice cold sunshine. night can drink wine and get all silly.

 

sun morning leave after breakfast. no rush.

 

thats what i normally do, im not the rush to see sights kind of tourer. sometimes i worry that people who sign up for this trip want to chiong everywhere. and that this trip might be a little to slow paced. i can suggest saturday afternoon you head to malacca for the night, i can suggest you a great cheap place to stay right next to mahkota parade, malacca on weekends nightlife everywhere got.

 

 

I will start a new thread for signing up. this thread for info and enquiries etc only.

probelem is might not know where is the inn ..

i am ok with roughing out

but if partner go, humm humm .. then headache liao

Based on the route, you will hit the next patrol station below 200KM on most of the stop. so need not worry.

 

I went CH recently and on the way back, we skip some stops as S4 can take up to 300KM.

 

Please try to plan to go up CH before sunset. better to be safe than sorry.

If start riding in the early morning, @ 120-140km/h, and spend about 10min for patrol and 30mins for patrol n makan, should be able to make it aroun 3 or 4 pm.

 

A very nice place to relax. Hope you guys enjoy the ride up there

Jason, when do we meet up for the trip discussion?

[SBF Old]

hi jason, if i'm joining u guys, i can help u book the accomodation. Its an apartment, cos might be $55 to $ 60 for 2nites. it can accomodate 8persons comfortabley, anything more will have to zzz in hall

[AhGui]

Wah SBF, if u can get that, it is better.... the cost is for per person or all in?

[AhGui]

SBF, is it in SGD or RM?

[SBF Old]

it is in sing per person for 8 person for 2nites, of course more people squeeze into the apartment will be cheaper. But then will be very uncomfortable already. If more then 8 then i propose maybe take 2 apartment already.

 

Cos i believe organiser wan this to be a slow & relax holiday. Not all cramp into the apartment

[AhGui]

oK....

Maybe we ask organizer how lor
