No fee ( usually RM2.50 ) was charged for the ride this time but riders still recieve a nice t-shirt as well as unlimited light food and snacks and a certificate of participation...
Kaki Touring, Ibrahim Kadri
Met a Facebook friend ( bicycle tourer ) Ibrahim Kadri for the first time. He had recently completed a short 700km tour to Krabi, Thailand. His Surly LHT is one to be admired even without any luggages. You can read about his trip at Tumpat Kelantan to Krabi Thailand via Hadyai
Me with PYT Lena
Also bumped into a familiar face; First met this active yound lady in Kempen Berbasikal Bersama Rakyat 1313 Ipoh with the Chongs; and again at OCBC Cycle Malaysia. Lena takes part in Duathlons, guys... so watch out!
Unlimited Food and Drinks
Weather was fine and the ride was well organised, with beautiful scenery and landscape. While 25km with 2 rest stops was a little too brisk for me, but I highly recommend it for beginners or families with small kids.
Should have been more adventurous and join Victor, Rivern, foldie couple Chongs up Fraser's Hill but need to train a lot harder first...
Couldn't resist taking a shot with our Malaysian Mounties
Oh yeah... 1Malaysia Cuti-Cuti Cycling Packages. Here's a copy of the brochure ( in case you happen to be interested... quite $$$ )

Strong man Ibrahim Kadri.
