Following our weekly combined G club and the Rotary club meeting yesterday a few updates are available. Below is our deluxe bento lunch box for the event.
This sumptous lunch is costing us Rm10 per pack (ordered in excess of 1500 sets to get the cost down) and I doubt if you could buy it at this prize from any shop outside. Again this is heavily subsided courtesy from CIMB FOUNDATION. We have 10 sets for food tasting and all of us agreed that it taste a lot better than our last year menu. I for one particularly like the sweet & sour lemon sea bass fish fillet although some of our committee members preferred the braised mince chicken kapitan with potato.
We have also managed to secure lucky draw prizes, 2 verbally confirmed ;
1) DAHON FOLDABLE BIKE 2) POLYGON BIKE. We are in the midst of negotiating for a super grand lucky draw. This will be announced once it is confirmed.
Stay tune for further updates on this.............................

Following our latest conjoint meeting with the Rotary Club of Tanjong Bungah and the G Club Penang Cyclists, we have agreed to source for the same Bento lunch supplier as of last year. The lunch will be provided to all participants and it will be as delicious as last years'. We have also confirmed our jersey supplier for a round island riders and hopefully more participants will find this jersey classier. The cost of the jersey and the bento lunch has already exceeded the registration fee of RM 50. We have to thanks our Main sponsor the CIMB FOUNDATION for its generosity in subsiding this event in the spirit of promoting cycling and promoting cycling lane in Penang. For our water stations we have one confirmed sponsors at the Straits Quay @ Seri Tanjung Pinang. For the round island, we hope to have 2 water stations at Sg Rusa and Teluk Bahang. We have budget for bananas besides the usual drinks at the water stations.

| Photographs and safety |
|
Take note that there will be photographers stationed at various points along the routes to take pictures. So don't try to take pictures while you are riding, what you need to do is to focus on your ride as your safety is paramount and when the event is over, visit this site to see your photos (not many candid shots were taken last year, we vow to improve this year!) For all participants we hope to see you on 17th. October, 2010. We hope all riders will cooperate to ensure safe and enjoyable ride. We would like to repeat, safety is of utmost importance. The organisers will strive their best to ensure conducive riding but the final onus is on the riders to
Also PREPARING FOR THE RIDE one day before will make you fit for the ride. It will still be a non competitive ride where fellowships among cyclists are still the emphasis. As in our previous ride, SAFETY IS STILL THE PARAMOUNT consideration for this event |
