Extreme Challenge X...Anyone interested??

Last year I organized trip to Skytrex @ Taman Pertanian Shah Alam which joined by almost 30people(thx to those that support me and i miss u guys SO SO MUCH). 
Today, suddenly this thing come across my mind to go for EXTREME CHALLENGE X since i dy tried Big Thrill(last year). Big Thrill is nice, pretty scary at the beginning but as I continue the challenge,i started to get rid of my fear...

Hold your breath while crossing “The Earthquake“, test your ability to leap at the “Happy Hopper“ and end the adventure with the grand finale, the 100 meters “Wild Revenge“ which will take you to the finishing platform at an exhilarating speed.

- but if u don't mind, u can use the glove left by other participant since the new RM3 glove almost the same with the used one. People who buy the glove usually wont bring back because after finish the challenge the glove will be in bad condition.


Personally I will choose morning  and weekday for the skytrex challenge because
            1. Afternoon very hot
            2. Less people - cycling- if weekend, need to wait very long to rent a bicycle becoz limited number of bicycles available.


* Just my suggestion:
 Skytrex adventure need around 2-3hours to complete, if u go around 9am, u will finish around 12pm..and have ur lunch at the cafe(near to the entrance) and after ur lunch go for cycling~!!!

Cycling
Rent a bike and cycle through the parks. Stopping by the several attractions which include the Mini Zoo, Padi Field, Four season house, French Garden, Cactus Garden, Orchid Garden, Fruit Garden and many more. Rate: RM3 or RM5 per rent, RM1 per hour

The bicycle rental shop is located near to Taman Pertanian 
Malaysia's main entrance/ticket counter.
* four season house- need to pay, Rm 3 per entry but i suggest u not to enter, nothing much inside and waste of money only~
