Pic 1: Two white ER34s
My last Drive It Like You Stole It (DILYSI) was 2 months ago and I thought that'll be it for quite a while due to other more pressing commitments. It was kinda revived for my cousin Joshua who's in town for his holidays from the UK. He wanted to see what touge is like thus none other is than Frasiers Hill was the destination.
It was an early Saturday morning that we choose to go thus many of the regulars can't make it. Sunday would be a better day definatly for all. :)

Anyway, only Alvin (with Woay Chee riding shotgun) any myself went for the drive. Faris was supposed to join us with his newly purchased ER34 but a flat battery that fateful morning got him stranded. Hope all is well now. :)
Traffic on a Saturday morning was much denser than Sunday, next time should stick to a Sunday drive. Hahaha
Pic 3: Alvin right at my tail
The ER34 felt 'different' from my last drive. It was sort of under steering a bit on fast sweeping bends. A couple of times, I veered too much of the next lane with oncoming traffic! Overall, it was a fair mix of fast bits and slower sections. I tried to refrain from going too hardcore due to my 16 years old cousin on board. :P
Pic 4: Coppers!!
We ran into to a couple of cops enroute. First car was a Perodua Kancil whereby I blasted past it in 2nd gear and upshift next to it as soon as it turns off the main road. That was super fun!! The second cop was in a Proton Waja crawling at a snails pace. I had to brake to about 50km/h and cruise beside it for the photo above by Woay Chee. Good shot bro. That was really fun too especially giving the car gas after the photograph. Lucky, we were not chased by the cop. :P
Pic 5: Alvin going over the fallen tree
Traffic cleared tremendously once we reach the road leading to The Gap. Now the real fun begins. The road was practically deserted save for a couple of cars off and on. Funny thing is we ran into another fallen tree that sprawled across the road (there was another fallen tree in DILYSI #14). There were quite a lot of damp stretch up Frasiers Hill and the TCS was working overtime trying to keep the rear in check. We didn't stay too long up in Frasiers Hill. As soon as we've had our usual Western breakfast up there, we head back downhill towards Kuala Lumpur as I've got some matters to attend too.
It's mad but this 180km round trip from home and back costs me 3/4 of the petrol tank. wtf!
Here's some small clips that my cousin took with his iPhone
