Downhill all the way, less pedaling needed but beware of incoming vehicles
(Note: In this outing, one of our rider suffered a crash due to the incoming trailer that cut across his path while making a sharp turn. He avoided the trailer and crash to the left side of the road shoulder)
Finally, flat road back to Gombak. Covered a total distance of 50.4km
