i had minor accident last thursday nite, just have a nite rite around my housing area and crash by a car, rider(me) was uninjured but bike rear tyre puncture.....still dunno got any unknown damage. Bike oredi send to repair....what a bad day

Ya, i need more training lol.

Sorry to hear that bro..

Anyway, do u have any lights or blinker on ur bike??

FYI, nite ride, lights / blinkers and helmet is a must!!

This is to catch attention for other motorist coming from both front and behind of cyclist

try not to cycling alone at night time, go with at least another cyclist. i dont know dare to travel far during the night alone, usually I do criterium training at night, whereby i cycle on the same road few loops over and over again but with a high cadence intensity. the loop doesnt need to be long, usually ranging from 1.0km to 2.5km, i usually do about 25km if I am alone, if with a bunch other riders, push it to 35km - 40km but in a peloton.

miniacs..which criterium u ride at nite?

ur gang booked the whole track??

by any chance u allow outsider like me to join?

Hi cyclist, never knew this thread exist for people who cycle.

anyway how much would a regular rear blinker cost? how long does the battery last?

and what light u guys use for front light? cuz my current light require 4 AA batteries which wears out quite quickly.

Went to bike shop again today, think I finally made my decision - thinking of placing an order later this week.

I'm now looking at the Scott Speedster S30 - similar to the S40/50 I was looking at previously but no SORA groupset components , 105/Tiagra

Price can get for around RM3200. Bit higher than I wanted to spend originally ... but if I end up upgrading groupset on a cheaper bike will work out more expensive.

scott bike is good start, s30 is 105 rite. 105 is 20speed, cukup le.

USJ 3ABCD + usj heights + subang heights is a very nice place to cycling, not many cars and new roads =D

I do have Helmet, Front and Back Light.Problem is the driver, he dint use the signal light so i no idea he sudd make a turn and crash my rear bike............


i do cycling loop around my housing area, around 1.3km. this is the 1st time i had accident on my loop training

105 Rear der. Tiagra front + shifter

Now staying at Damansara Perdana .. hope can find some nice routes to cycle

damansara perdana is a great to stay at, you can cycle to Klang via Puncak Alam and back, you can also cycle to Ijok or Kuala Selangor via Guthrie Highway.

Thanks for tips ... will check those out once I got used to my bike.

What's it like cycling on the highway? I guess there isn't many small roads to cycle via

I got my 2 blinkers @ RM25 with battery supply (3V)
Usually the battery can last for months as you only use at night

front light preferably go for cat eye (my suggestion), which offer better brightness

Hi fjb123,

I love to ride around Bukit Jelutong area, can make few loops with 9km each. Else, can cycle around Guthrie to Ijok or Rawang.

Regards.

Will take a look , maybe join for a ride once got my fitness back been too long !!
