July Monthly Weekend Drive : Batu Caves <-> Gohtong Jaya - 18th July Breakfast Drive

[astroboy]

Wah! So meriah ka?! I was made to sapu you fellas.. no choice, so many cars going. Scared the 518 can't maintain the discipline of all you hot blooded young pilots..

I will meet herbert in Shell MRR2 at 6am.. those who do not want to trouble u-turning if you coming from Gombak, Ampang or Cheras side, perhaps ALBundy's suggestion is good too. Please contact ALBundy and revert with your decision. Once we leave Shell at 6:30am, we will reach the Petronas to pick u fellas up. Its on the way anyway. I have no problem with it. Only thing is briefing will have to be done in Petronas instead of Shell, or ALBundy to handle the Petronas briefing, just a suggestion.

T2, what u think? I am open for both.

 

[ALBundy]

Hello, it is a Sunday early morning (6.30 am) and not much traffic along Shell MRR2 (Batu Caves bound).

Herbert, I am not talking about the traffic on mrr2.

It's about navigating through the traffic lights to get to jln ulu yam. There will be latecomers and once you try to convoy from there at 7, there will be traffic along the way to our final destination. We have done monthly drive using this route many times official drive or otherwise. Anyway this is just a suggestion to ensure everyone will have a good drive. It's to you all to decide, this is just a suggestion no need to get agitated Nowadays, suggestion also like a taboo!

Fabian, a detailed guide to get to the petronas station will help the first timers. It's not that difficult but would save some time.

Cheers

 

[ALBundy]

Those living nearby damansara, can convoy together to that petronas station so we wont get lost.

just a suggestion

Bro we meet at Sri damansara toll Calling calling...

kekeke... Eagle's nest..

Time?

 

[ALBundy]

Batu Caves, turn left and go straight will lead you to the petronas is it?

There will be a few traffic lights to go through.

 

[Herbert]

Bro,

My apologies...I thought you were referring to MRR2.

Yes, good idea to wait at Sri Damansara toll and then proceed to Petronas station.

Good to have you around bcoz half way through the 518 would have sapu-ed all the cars instead of being the penyapu kekeke.
