Gapturions ATV Adventure and Nature

Last month, Gapturions celebrated the success of hitting our agency's first quarter sales target by experiencing a challenging yet interesting outdoor activity.  It was a great Saturday for Gapturions to feel the excitement of riding ATVs at ATV Adventure Park.  Located in Kampung Kemensah, Ulu Klang, it is an interesting place with natural attraction for anyone who wants to enjoy the nature on ATVs.  It was a weekend and there were a lot of people, both locals and tourists, who were eager to ride the ATVs.

We were being briefed by a crew member on how to ride and handle the ATV before we are allowed to handle the ATV.  We managed to take a group photo in front of a giant hill rock with graffiti art on it before we began the ride.

Then it was time for us to start our adventurous ATV journey up and down the hill.  It felt like riding a motorbike, but on four wheels.  Going uphill was not very smooth for Gapturions as we often stopped when someone’s ATV got stuck in the mud or in a big pothole!  Yes, it was a very challenging route, which is narrow, muddy, bumpy and full of big rocks.  But all these added to the excitement of an ATV adventure!

Can't wait to start the adventure!

The forest and surrounding nature made this activity unique and different from other sports activities.  We get to enjoy and appreciate the nature in this ride.  The mini waterfall in the heart of the forest perfectly refreshed us from the tiredness of the ride and the journey.  We stopped and appreciated the beautiful scenery, before continuing our ride.

There were many challenges ahead!  It got harder as we approached where we started off, as the road got steeper and filled with full of obstacles.  But that was exactly what made it adventurous and fun!  We arrived at the start-off point safely and we all felt the satisfaction of completing the route.  I, for sure, wouldn't mind doing it again!

After all the hard work, we are ready to fill ourselves up with mouth-watering dishes at Dapur Penyet Wangsa Maju.  It is such a perfect place to enjoy delicious Indonesian cuisines like Ayam Penyet, Lele Penyet, Sambal Udang Belado, etc.  Hungry stomaches and delicious food, what a combination!

The signature dish, 'Ayam Penyet', is definitely the best choice

The main dish, Ayam Penyet, and other mouth-watering dishes are definitely worth trying!  Luckily, we didn’t forget to capture the moment of the day with all Gapturions, interns and ex-interns.

This fun weekend activity was a good opportunity for Gapturions to get together outside hectic agency work.  I think appreciation towards the nature is something people lack of in this modern day.  This ATV ride gave us a good opportunity to be together with old friend - the nature.
