my little mis-adventure

yesterday really tested me and me versys.
since chris wasnt feeling too good , i told her to saty at home and rest while i hop in the bike and ride to work.
work went on like normal, but i left at 5:45 , made a stop at the lousy pertonas in cyberjaya and then rode onto the e20 towards PJ , jalan gasing.
some how or another, i missed the turn out to bangsar/subang/jln kuchai lama ( why can't theny just write PJ there? ) and guess where i ended up? KL , jln tun abd razak. ouch.....
so i ride to the nearest place where i can turn back. no way am i gonna do an accross kl town trip.

so i ride back thinking there would be an exit to subang/bangsar, nope, there aint, next stop , bukit jalil !
ok bukit jalil it is, but when i exit i cant get on it at bukit jalil what!?
so i turn off to jalan sungai besi, cut pass the nirvana memorial and then onto the federal highway, and all of this was done during ruch hour and heavy traffic.

and then passed midvalley and turned out to jalan gasing. did what i needed to do , then the schools around the area just let out all of the kids. argh..... jammmmm

then i decided to use the fedral highways bike lane to get to berkley in klang to buy dinner for me and chris.
the jam on the car lanes were bumbper to bumper.
bike lane was crowded but bike were doing 80 to 100kmh so it wasnt too bad.
when i came to subang i misread the sign board and ended up heading towards glenmarie.... so i then used the other nkve hgihway. quite heavy traffic but 110kmh was doable without any heriocs.

once i exit the klang exit i headed to berkley and bought some good rice and curry, and headed home. it was jammed as well. the chinese shchool just let out heir kids. argh....

when i reached home, i was a little worn out. the heat and the travelling and not enoght sleep. mmmmmm


anyway , to just illustrate how big my misadventure was , see the picture below. the purple line shows my route yesterday, the yellow one shows my normal route and the blue one are highways and red ones are federal highways.






sucks doesnt it?

but the part which got me most was the way they built the kl putrajaya highway. some parts have only entry points but no exits and some have exits only but no entry points....
see the highwya company's website. gateway to the nation their head.

1. Kg. Pandan Roundabout Interchange - Entry & Exit ramps at Jln Tun Razak and Kg Pandan Roundabout
2. Salak South Interchange - Entry ramps at East West Link (to Putrajaya only)
3. Kuchai Lama Interchange - Entry & Exit ramps at Jalan Kuchai Lama (to Putrajaya only)
4. Bukit Jalil Interchange - Entry & Exit ramps at Kesas Highway
5. Putrajaya Link Interchange - Entry & Exit ramps from Cyberjaya, Putrajaya, KLIA (via North South Central Link)

sucks. i am aware that this trip wasnt as big or adventurous as charley and ewans long way round trip, but this is nearly the same thing except is scaled down, by alot.
