This journey was never just about covering long kilometers on the bike. It was about how we, each with our own pace, still chose to move within the same story. There were bursts of laughter, quiet moments of understanding, and fatigue carried together in our own ways. Along the route, we learned that a group ride does not always mean being in the exact same place, but staying aligned even when the path starts to feel endless.
.
And even though we did not finish together, nothing about the day felt incomplete. Instead, it reminded us that life always leaves room to try again.
.
Next time, the route will be waiting to be conquered with better preparation, stronger legs, and maybe tighter teamwork.
.
See you on the next agenda, with new stories and hopefully the same easy laughter.
Pertama kali coba gravel cycling race 🤓

Semua disiapkan dalam waktu yang super terbatas: latihan cuma sekitar 2 bulan, dengan longest ride baru sampai 60 km.
Awalnya ikut race ini juga karena iseng: “Yang penting finish, soal tembus COT atau enggak nanti aja.” Tapi jadi makin gregetan pas lihat rutenya: 100 km dan EG kurang lebih 1.000 m. Ternyata sangat amat chaos!😭
Mental sempat kena, terutama di antara km 50–70. Tanjakannya nggak selesai-selesai, dan summit course-nya ada di bagian itu juga.
Sempat kepikiran buat nyerah aja dan DNF, tapi mikir lagi: ngapain latihan capek-capek kalau ujungnya DNF?🤝
🚴🏻♂️: @cannondale.id Topstone Carbon 4: anti worry ketemu jalan rusak, berkat teknologi Kingpin yang bikin berasa ada suspensinya.
📱: @wahoofitness.id ELEMNT ACE: anti nyasar-nyasar club, super akurat, fun to ride karena bisa sambil setting lagu langsung dan yang paling penting baterainya awet banget!
Selain shout-out ke brand-brand di atas, terima kasih juga buat semua teman yang udah support dari hari pertama sampai race day kemarin @oscarchrstt@krisnaharindad@utomodamar@gstvprakoso@__.aamandda@edmundjeds@alwi_devalus@nixchons 🙌
Cheers to another! 🍻
On my fifth month with the mission: jack of all trades and master of none.
Trying out a new sport each month so far and loving every rep🤓
Six down, many more challenges (and sore muscles) to go!
Tiba-tiba mencoba Duathlon untuk pertama kalinya, capek ya👍
1,5 leg pertama keram mentok, mau dnf tapi kentang. Tangki kosong, sisanya cuma mindset🤝
Slide terakhir: bonus 🐊

The power of: silence but it’s #MedalMonday
This Half Marathon race was definitely more interesting than before. Soooo many journeys passed because there was “better” training for this race compared the 1st attempt. Even though started running 12 weeks before the race and missed three of them.
Shaved around 30 minutes off compared first attempt in 2023 (3:27 to 2:57) and lost about 5kg in a month (because it’s really hard to run steady with extra size, re: 3 digits).
Maybe this time doesn’t seem impressive to some people, but it’s part of the journey that makes me happy.
“Nothing changes if nothing changes.”
Still looking for another stillness, cheers to more training and the journey ahead.
The recent highlight of life has been (not so) fully socializing in person, but avoiding from using social media to socialize (a bit).
These ‘tricks’ show that real life is more exciting than ‘the illusional’ life.
Ble✌🏻🤞🏼
