074 Cycle Touring Malaysia (2)

(Leana) #1

(^38) Malacca – Batu Pahat - 88 km

Not a great deal happened during the day, except it started raining,
and instead of becoming soaked, I found a place to take cover until it
was over.
Batu Pahat – Pontian Kecil - 77 km

During my ride to Pontian Kecil, I made my usual stops to refill my
water supply or sample the local food. I initially planned to stay at a
Warmshower accommodation, but due to a misunderstanding, I had
to find an alternative place to stay. Interestingly, the hotel staff still
used an abacus, which made for an intriguing experience. It's
incredible how diverse and unique our world can be.
Pontian Kecil – Kota Tinggi - 105 km

I spent the better part of the day riding on busy main roads, which
wasn't very pleasant. Unfortunately, I got caught in the rain again,
but it didn't last long. When I finally arrived in Kota Tinggi, I had
enough of the awful traffic and decided to stop at a hotel. Luckily,
there was a food court right next door where I was able to enjoy
delicious curry noodle soup.
