Cool, seems like this coming Tuesday will be very interesting with new riders including me... I will touch down on Tuesday as well... will try my best to setup up my bike for the night.... as there are too many things to settle back in Malaysia... so the average speed that you guys cycle?

No worries plkvoon...I will be there every Tuesday. Since you just touch down, take ur time to settle ur stuff after so long abroad.
KL is raining everyday recently. I also sometimes can't cycle at night.
I'm currently riding 25-6 km/h...Guess not so fast yet...hope to hit 30km/h soon.
