Rehashed 20110409 Clip Clip

Run: 925 Hare: Clip Clip Venue: Puchong Btau 14 Cohares: Tangki Air, SuckIt, Showman, Eto, Kent, ...

Followed the description on HLH4’s website to the new runsite and was there about 5:15 pm with nobody else around than the hare’s car parked by the roadside next to the “little houses”. After a while Michael drove by, had a look, turned around and chased away! Hmm, didn’t he like the area because of the “little houses”? No, he just went back to the pasar malam to buy some banana for the fellow hashers!

In the meantime the cohares came back, with some co-co hares and their friends. The turn-up of the other hashers was rather small, maybe there were more cohares from the “Puchong-gang” than runners.

Run started while beerman was still circling around. Bandit not to be seen yet, still busy with some unnecessary u-turns to show up late as usual.

Front runners Dipstick, Kiki and Ernesto looking at the first check to the right, while NoHair was further to the left trying to find the paper. Check was broken after some time, continuing forward to the second check, which created a lot of confusion. Kelam Kabut, Long John and the other FRB’s checked around the bungalow construction site, but could not find the paper. R u ? was heard everywhere until the pack went back to the in trail.

Just after most of them decided to go back, Guitarman, Cock Pain and me heard Kiki and Nohair somewhere up the hill, coming down from the bungalow site. After some checking we realized the in trail was very near. Kelam Kabut, Nohair, Cock Pain and I decided to continue, even though it was already 6:55.

Long John saw the paper going steep uphill and decided to go back with Michael’s group, as it was seen as “slightly above his standard”. We had to climb up to the bungalow site and further up a tarmac road almost to the water tank. Uphill I was falling behind as usual, but could catch up by shortcutting a tarmac loop by sliding down the slope.

Finally we entered the jungle zigzagging around uphill and downhill as it became quite dark already. Surprisingly we heard some honking! Bandit somehow managed to find his way and was in front of us! Cock Pain and I caught up with U-I and decided to stay as a group as she was struggling a bit. We moved further uphill, Cock Pain pulling and me pushing U-I, trying to keep her on her feet.

Out of the bushes and along the edge of a slope we were on tarmac later, almost missing a sharp left turn at the condo. From there it was another ten minutes back to the runsite. Last runners Cock-Pain, U-I and I back at 8:35.

Circle at the runsite, with some icing for director (Ernesto), not calling on on (JPS), inappropriate behavior at a karaoke place (Showman) etc.

Dinner at restaurant nearby.

It was a new run site with the adjacent ‘new village’ and a pasar malam at the main junction. We saw Michael driving out and away from the run site towards the pasar malam. We finally saw Joachim wondering around the area to ‘check-out’ the surroundings. Kwang drove in with friend, Spiderman while we saw the first few co-hares came back (Sexy Showman, Doggy Kent and Eto). The rest of the troops started to gather just after someone said that the crowd was small. JPS and Dipstick overshot the junction and turned back to find the run site while beerwagon was somewhere in another ‘new village’. So the pack started the run without waiting for him.

At the front Dipstick, KikiLala and Ernesto were fooling around and chit-chatting, pushing each other to get the other stepping on mud. It was a run round the OP and into the open area for a check that was broken far back with another pack calling ON at the other side of the hill. LJ Silver was screwing the other party as their calls were ‘illegal’ as Kelam Kabut reasoned where the start paper was.

We finally saw the group was Dipstick, Charlie Chan and gang. So, the pack together again and ended up with the 2nd check that took ages to break. This was where some confusion took place with the runners all over the place hunting. Unknowingly to the front pack, the late starters found the check and did not ‘do the overall OnCall’ to lure the rest of the pack into fresher trails.

Kelam Kabut and I were on top of the hill near the back of the bungalows while we heard Guitarman, Cock Pain and Joachim at the bottom in the OP. We had a ‘discussion’ on the whereabouts and decided to continue. We met Michael, Miow2 and Email coming down from the right and they too decided not to go and followed the InTrail which was just meters away.

Guitarman saw the climb and decided not to go further and turned back with Michael’s group. The 4 of us (Kelam Kabut, Cock Pain, Joachim and I) continued to climb the rocky slope to end up at the front part of the bungalows! We were then on the tarmac uphill and then a windy downhill on the laterite road till we reached the layered slope to enter the jungle. We moved in a group to ‘secure’ each other as Joachim was a bit struggling on the slippery uphills and in the semi-dark conditions.

We were led on winding paths, up and down hills and finally heard some honking! So, we caught up with U-I and Spiderman! Surprisingly, the back pack was here with Bandit further up cursing, as usual for the hill climbs. It was on a narrow path downhill by the housing area.

The home trail was on tarmac through the housing and met 3 guests enjoying the run. I was running to nowhere and lost on paper on the tarmac, apparently missed the left turn, to make a 3km loop to get back to the run site. Kwang did the same! I was back at the run site after 8pm for the supposed to be a 7km run!
