Little vampire

This is the sucking fella (leech) that encoutered during my mountain bike ride on last 30 oct 2005. This bloodsucking is quite a nightmare for jungle trekkers. There are good things about it too! Formerly it is used by physicians to bleed patients and is now sometimes used as a temporary aid to circulation during surgical reattachment of a body part. So it is kind of love & hate things.

Before this little fella was captured, It was sizzling on Sunday morning. I had a mountain bike ride with 3 buddies. Venue is in one of the famous 4WD site in Semenyih. A remote area near Semenyih's waterfall. Approximately 50m from the waterfall car-park.

The trail entrance is from an abandon fishing bond. The surrounding is quite scary as it is so quiet. Definately not recommended for visitors in 3 or less. Ladies have to be extra careful. Besides, the trail seems to be left alone for long time, long grasses, messy trail to describe it. It is even worst when we went into the deeper site of it.

This is an in & out trail. The ending of the trail will be a river stream. Great place to take a short break before heading back. Overall, the ride took about 3hours. The riding is not really enjoyable as most of the time we were block by overhead grasses and tree branches. I had cuts around body, pitty my sexy legs.
