Pas Lesen Moto

8.8.08 - tarikh keramat dalam lipatan hidup aku.

Dalam pada umat dunia meraikan upacara pembukaan sukan olimpik, aku gembira kerana lepas lebih kurang 10 tahun naik moto lesen 'L', hari ni aku lulus cemerlang.

Barisan motor untuk tunggangan ujian. Lokasi ujian di pekan Hyde, lebih kurang 8 batu dari pusat bandar Manchester. Kiri kanan kebanyakan rumah warga British keturunan Pakistan.

Bila tiba waktu tengahari, bau kari menyucuk-nyucuk idung dan mengegar sanubari.

Tiga rakan satu batch ambil test bersama.

Dari kiri Gary, Chris, dan Jo (irish pencen yang mahu menghabiskan sisa usia riding dan ronda-ronda)

Dave (Mr Instructor) paling kiri memberi pesan terakhir sebelum test bermula.

Satu milestone besar selamat selesai.

Din, they planned the Olympics in Beijing to fall on 08.08.08 many years ago is not as significant as your plan to obtain your 'lesen' since a decade ago. Dari Klang ke KL to and fro tiap hari. 'Feng Shui' apa yang kau practise?

hahaha...asri, i remember the very word you said to me on my first day at xm. you came to welcome me at my tiny smoky room, congratulate me and said that 'riding to work is the second smartest thing you did - after proposing to your wife, that is'.

that was 10 years ago!

riding on my kapchai from klang to sultan ismail took a bit of getting use to, as my bum used to sore soo much once i reached shah alam.

once used to it, the one hour to and back from work is the best time of the day. that is when most of the idea mari :)

take care sir.
