\nI passed through Sungai Siput on the way to Kuala Kangsar where there were cows among the gravestones by the Hindu temple, and then the twin peaks of the hill overlooking the town.

When I arrived in Kuala Kangsar we were greeted with a red telephone box – they get everywhere it seems!

I looked back on yesterday\u2019s ride from Cameron Highlands to Ipoh with mixed emotions, a fantastic ride downhill but alongside the beauty comes the sad mess that farming is having on our environment. All the plastic reminded me of the run down to Motril in southern Spain. It\u2019s such a shame that there won\u2019t be much left for future generations. The traffic fumes and the way people arrive at an attraction or viewpoint and leave their cars running in order to keep the air con working and some don\u2019t even get out to explore the view! Still it was great fun flying downhill at top speed with no carbon footprint or trace that I\u2019d even been there!<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
