KLMBH Bandar Tasek Puteri Ride - 4th April 09

I haven't updated the club's site for a long time. Slow internet connection and the backlog of rides building up. I'll update them in time, hopefully soon.

Meanwhile, the latest ride the KL Mountain Bikers Hash at Bandar Tasek Puteri Rawang is published here, photos courtesy of KLMBH Bikers and my trusty handphone camera.

Fariq, Dr Khairul and myself took part. Eddy was in Kuantan and Din in Hong Kong. Taif and Kman declined. We ran into Rosli and Din Subang at the event.

Wonderful event, long course a hard 28km, short course a scenic 15 km. We took the long course. Fariq finished 1 hour before me, Dr Kahairul about 15 minutes earlier. I got lost for about half an hour together with riders from Bandar Tun Razak on the false trails.

Anyway pictures speak for themselves.
