Aku terima call dari Man Kopi 3 hari sebelum tarikh bertolak. Dengar menarik, so aku pergi jumpa SooBeng untuk tanya lebih lanjut. Lepas tu aku balik buat research on the net pasal Thompson Trail. Bila aku check weather forecast, hari jumaat tu dijangka hujan lebat, so aku teragak-agak. Anyway, aku decide untuk pergi juga so aku terus jumpa Boss minta cuti.
Soo Beng organised the trip perfectly. 2 buses chartered and 20 riders per bus. One person was allocated 2 seats to sleep. 8pm arrived at the back of Soo Beng Shop, packing our bike in the luggage area of the bus and then 9.30pm we were on our way to Cameron.
After a number of stops, we arrived at Ringlet just before 5am, friday morning. After assembling our bike, we looked for place to eat and toilet.
The ride started at 7.30am after arrival of Anuar, who drove with his family and check in at Cameron.

Distance: 43km
Time Started: 7.26am
