KL Ulu Langat -Broga ride Update

Some Pic.....for your viewing pleasure

At the first regroup point...all can't wait to restart

SuperLan in action
Enjoying the hill climb....
Making it looks so easy.....
Action right at the front.....at the 13km hill.
As usual..in deep concentration...it continues even after the ride
Ride outcome: 15 riders from Penang/Kulim and 8 riders from Ipoh turned up for the ride. Estimated a total 100+ riders joined the event. Thanks to P2K for organizing the event. Well balanced terrain consisting of smooth up and downhills and fair amount of flat make the ride a very enjoying one. It was relatively smooth for MKH with only one small technicality due to broken spoke (Ja) and with good span of riders right from at front till mid pack. One setback for muslim riders was that there were no halal food at the stop point making it a bit uncomfortable for them. Sorry no pic to upload at the moment, hopefully will get some later.

Original post:
