  • Time: Briefing 08:45. Ride off 09:00 sharp.

After a long hiatus, KLMBH is happy to restart our bashes. This bash is set in the lovely, quiet, and friendly kampung of Ulu Sepri, Pedas. It is also jointly hosted by Masha and the Bear Campsite. The owners there have been gracious enough to let me camp there for many a nights, as I worked out the bash route on my evenings after work.


And then with some help from a few good men to establish some crucial connections, we managed to string together a route that we hope will rekindle back your joy in Bash rides and XC/trail mountain biking.


DIRECTIONS

  1. Use Google Maps or Waze and search for “Masha And The Bear Campsite”.

  2. Destination should be to Kampung Empang Batu, Pedas, Negeri Sembilan.

  3. If coming from KL and taking North-South highway, you will exit at Exit 220 – Senawang.

  4. Go from Jalan Senawang to Jalan Tampin. Head towards Rembau – Pedas.

  5. Drive for about 13km.

  6. When notice a Petron station on your left, get ready to turn left into Jalan Rembau-Pedas. Note: This is the last, closest petrol station / convenience store if want to get anything.

  7. Make your way towards Jalam Kem Bina Ulu Sepri. Note: But slow your driving down at this point. Common to have water buffalos and goats crossing the road. As mentioned, it’s a quiet and tranquil place. Kampung vibes still intact. Including free roaming animals.

  8. Will arrive about 2.6km after that.

TIPS FOR THE RIDE

  1. Don’t want to rush on Sunday morning? Strongly encourage a camp over the night before at Masha and the Bear. Just book quickly. As slots are limited and fill up fast. If full, consider sharing the plot with other mtbikers. Book thru: https://escabee.com/campsites/masha-and-the-bear-garden-campsite

  2. The campsite is clean, peaceful and cooling at night; with lovely hosts. Suitable for camping beginners or experts.

  3. Stay on Paper!!! If you are off paper, back track to find paper and then follow it.

  4. Do not litter. Pick up your own trash. You will find the roads and trails to be very clean. Let’s maintain it that way so mountain bikers will be welcomed back.
