PEMODA nn HOG Bikers were specially invited to bring along their BIG Bikes to TAMAN Haji Sir Omar Ali Saifuddin  .... here is d' reason... 

Firstly... newspapers cuttings ....  !!!!

Pehin Awang Haji Hazair bin Haji Abdullah, Minister of Culture, Youth and Sports launched the Telematch RIA held in conjunction with the 27th NATIONAL DAY celebration ..









D' climaX of our simple brief participation of BIKEs Show was a memorial group photo taken with a ride seat by Pehin himself on one of HOG's bike ....




D' story began with morning assembly point at SERUSOP cafe...  
.. an easy way for bikers to come nn  get along one another ...


To make a successful ride to Taman SOAS ... was just make a format 2  in 1 ...
...a join RIDE.. PEMODA... nn  HOG ... no matter as most HOG bikers are also PEMODA  ....



Repeatedly ... familiar... faces of bikers...  hopefully Uu know...

Ready to go  ... less than 10 minutes to arrive... as Sunday seemed quite day ....


Here... Uu were.. BIKEs show..  properly assembled big..bikes... just d' opposite of Jalan Sultan.. at Taman Haji Sir Omar Ali Saifuddin ...



Few interested people came closer ..looked..  nn took photos...

FOUR wheels drive trials were here too... NOT real...  eeehh
REMOTE control.. special event  for people... to participate ... looked rough stony route ...
NOT easy to control unless Uu practice  so often...

NO particular events were offered  ...    so just look  nn  see ..
