The ride supposed to be a all new edition with some highlight along the course. Instead the usual distance, speed, intensity & challenges. 

  However, the intended battle is called off. It was due to 1 of the contender's no-show. Very disappointed. 

On good news.... We have 10 riders turn up for the individual Time-Trial effort from Mantin-Setul toll. And co-incidentally, met up with a group of 20-30 rider on RB.  Some even over took these roadies. Good jobs to everybody to make this a pleasant ride πŸ‘πŸΌπŸ’ͺ🏼



Morning load up. It was a dissapoinment when the race-highlight planned for a week was cancel due to the no-show-up from contender. 

Show still on. Rider final preps prior the roll up

Feeling relief. Happy riding for Snake.

Mid ride tuning for KT before turning into Pantai road.

AP dscribed as black horse. Showing strong lead during the 1st half of the ride.

AB reaching the last climb before the Setul climb.

LG ride very relaxing despite the earlier claim that he was drunk, jelly legs & many other excuses. Somehow he is the winner of the day, automatically.

YP passing the green lung of Mantin

FG very conservative rider.

 Sportsmanship fully demonstrated by RH. Still suffer pain from the injury caused at last week's crash. Somehow, still show up to join this week's special edition ride. Big round applaud to RH.
  
Turn up in a surprised mode. Mr AY.

While awaiting the last rider, many are busy for selfie on this sunshine Sunday.

Nice scenery, green, fresh air..... Hey! Not to miss out the newbie MTBer KT

PUSHING TO THE LIMIT by newbie KT

Priceless. The time spent together in this ride will be in memory forever.

The machines are hot. Preps for the last climb of the ride. Mantin - Setul

All set supposed for the ride's highlight. But we have change it for the individual TT. Ride at your best pace!

Let's go!

     Thanks to all the BFF to make this ride a success, once again!

     I'm sure we are looking forward a better, much interesting version of BFF ride in coming weekend! Stay tuned.
