Musing: Bintulu-Miri Coastal Road Trip

Image
I took a break from managing my research project to travel the Bintulu-Miri Coastal Road. Only the last 50km towards Miri that you actually drive along the coast line. Before that you will pass through petrochemical industrial complexes, newly built huge factories complexes (remind me of Foxconn-type of complex), palm oil plantations, forests and mountains and several small towns. I've managed for a detour to the Tusan Beach.  This is what a road trip looked like before fancy tolled highways;   dingy bathrooms stops, a random KFC and trading villages. You need considerable amount of risk preferences for every overtaking decision. If you are lucky, cooperative lorry drivers will provide signal when it is safe to overtake them.

I made my own pasta today!

Image
 It's a Sunday and another lockdown (movement control order) week. I've been craving fresh made pasta for awhile. Apparently restaurants that sell pasta within the 10km radium from my house only used boxed pasta.  The last time I knead dough was in 2019 when I made seitan. 10 minutes is too long then. But I'm desperate for fresh pasta this time.  Hence,  I made a mistake mopping the floor in the morning, and by the time I'm done I have to mop the floor again since there are eggs and flour on the floor now.  I clearly have no talent and skills with the rolling pin, plus I'm tired with the kneading. So this is how my pasta looks like: By the time this is done, I'm hungry. Since I have a lot of cheese and that is the quickest, I ended up with a spinach cheese pasta.  It was a satisfying meal.

Race Report:- Maverick Inov-8 X Series: Peak District (7/7/2018)

Image
Date: 7/7/2018 (Saturday) Middle Route: 27.1km Elevation: +986m/-986m Race Details This is the second race I entered in fell/trail conditions. I signed up for the long route 46km in February and decided to scale back the distance to 27km as I found I could not fit long runs during the Ramadhan month. Then 5 days before the race day I was down with chest infection. I suspect this is due to lingering cold emerging from air travel and it just got worse on the return flight to England. I was bedridden from Monday to Wednesday, coughing up mucus while pumping a lot vitamin C and water in my body to get better. By Thursday night, I know there is no way I will be able to race on Saturday. A short email to the race organizer informed me that there won’t be any cut-off time for participants doing the middle route, aka I can walk this course. My peak flow reading on Friday morning was 300 when the ideal reading for my age and height is expected to be 420. It is settled then, I ...
