Rehashed 20120630 Short Circuit

Run: 989 Hare: Short Circuit Venue: Ambar Tenang Dengkil Cohare: Kilat

This was a new runsite. Directions were announced last week. Our website carried the directions with a link to a Google map. The GPS coordinates were also given. Yet, at 6pm, there were only a handful of members ready to hit the virgin trail. Joachim showed up after a long hiatus, probably after Germany was knocked out of Euro 2012.

At just past six, GM called On On and waited to care for the car keys as the beerman had yet to come. The trail led up a gentle slope and quickly reached the 1st check which was easily broken on the right. The papers still led up and to another check just before the canopy, which was also broken rather fast.

Coming out into open and going around the hill and still going up to the top, the front runners hit another check, which had even the middle pack reaching it as it took a while to break. It was broken by Joachim along the same path which had been checked earlier by two other hashers.

From the top, the papers led down to just before some village houses and another check. This took a good fifteen minutes before Bandit hit some papers and called On On. It turned out Bandit hit midway of a paper trail and he did not know whether the papers were leading left and up the hill again or if it led right and down to the river and close to the Putrajaya riverside runsite.

Lester ABC who had just caught up with the group and was coming down the hill, decided to follow through down on the right. Cock Pain, who also just caught up, decided on the trail that went down. Buaya, who had earlier gone checking on the other side, decided on the trail that went up the hill.

Long John Silver decided to go down and was followed by SK and UI. By this time GM, who managed to find the shortcuts, joined the group together with KFC and Blood Donor. Joachim, Silent Dragon, Eto, Tangki Air, Ta'ada Air, Kenching, Blood Donor, Charlie Bicyle, Agnes and the rest decided on the left trail which was the right trail that went up the hill.

From the top, the papers led dangerously down and to another check, which was broken obviously quick and to the home trial, which had some members fuming due to insufficient trail markers.

By 7.30pm, Buaya was out on paper and shortly, the others who had gone the wrong way, found their way home. The hare's guest, Kumar, paid a villager to give him ride back after his shoes gave up on him.

On On onsite.
