[Kulim Hi-Tech Park Mountainbike explorace 2009]

on 8 March 2009, hired as OP for this event, my job is to capture moments/photos of this ride from start until the end. actually, i was into MTB before but it was a while ago when my last feet on pedals due to some circumstances. this ride distance is approx. 55km that consist of onroad and offroad. the event start as early as 7.30am in the morning and finish at 4.00pm in the evening. the first rider to arrive was at 10.15am, with ride duration at a staggering time of approx. 2hrs45min. this guy, Zabidi from Permatang Pauh, against all odds, denies organizer's expectation that the first rider would arrive at 11.30am. way to go Zabidi! you should sign up with National Team someday! :)

below are some of the pics from the event.
