It's been 11 wonderful months since I bought my ZX6R, and it has been about total of 5 months that I've been missing my ride. 3 months starting on November '07, and another 2 since this year February. O, how I miss soooooooooo much going up to Awana and the Klawang twisties. Good friends in the group too postponed Q1 planned trip to Pantai Timur since I'm unavailable. Thank you guys. Really appreciate the kawan-kawan stuff here. :)
So I'm inviting them all to get together this Sunday, hang around and watch Jerez MotoGP at my place. What would be better to hang out and watch MotoGP together with your friends? Having a good food to go with - that's what. Feels like going down to Penang and pekena nasi kandar, that is my version of good food, but my wife will comment mental out of me. I guess BBQ is appropriate enough for that night task. I decided to get those fresh seafood at Pasir Penambang. Seems like far, but I love going places, so far never been a complication for me. And I love every minute driving my Focus.
It's like 11am on that Sunday. I imagining the guys at their regular space starting to enjoy the beautiful afternoon. I.., I'll be enjoying four wheels instead off two. So me, my wife and my father in law head down to Pasir Penambang. Trip takes about an hour, some twisties on the way to enjoy, but my wife is on labor, so I have to ease up on the gas I guess.
This is the new market, much more pleasant looking. It's like 50 steps from the old market. It still holds the same fresh fish and the same old sellers. Price wise isn't that much different than KL, cheaper by few slices, but what's important is the stuff you're getting here is mostly fresh.
You can tell them fresh fist from the look of the eyes. Flip up the scale and see the gill, if it's still pink and mucus like, that's a go.
Hmm... turn on my appetite writing this blog. Damn... Big size cockle hardly to get in KL. There are extra large size too, bout at least 2 1/2”, RM4.00 per kilo, Malay called it kerang bulu, not sure they they declare it hairy cockle in english thou.
So done getting some kembung, cencaru, kerapu, cuttlefish, udang, cockle, and some crab. We head home via the Kapar route. I stop at my parents house at Kayu Ara and wanted to gave them the fresh kerapu, bought specially for them but they weren't home, so I pass it to my elder brother.
5 pm, time to start up the fire. The 125cc race already started. Weather these days now, the rewarding afternoon are backed with raining evening. But that didn't stop commited riders here.
Oscar first to rang me asking for direction to my house. He misses the first exit to my house like every first timers. Poji next to come and then Eddy, Fino, abg Indra, Bedah and Yan. Other guys I called up are busy with their agenda. Would be more fun if we can pack up more crowds. Next time should plan this better. My mother in law mistaken us wacthing MotoGP for a football game. BTW, Chelsea 1-0 against Boro, and the Reds 1-0 Everton. :)
The Spain MotoGP this round and had a home effect to Oscar. Nice action and drama on the 250cc round and some of us really enjoy the Stoner show.
We are constanly studying and looking for some tips how to get our elbow down like Edwards did on the qualifying session. I think Poji there imagining how the elbow scratch would feel like.
Yup... yum... yum... Eddy and Poji concentrating on the race. That's me in blue there.
On the left corner, kerang and udang, on the right corner, kembung and cencaru. On the top side I got sticks of sotong and the lower corner I got fat of grill lamb. Wooo......
That's it, I felt like eating now... Nasi kandar for me this afternoon. Adios.
