“In line with the government’s initiative in turning Kuala Lumpur into a green city, we are excited to see more interest in cycling in Malaysia. We are encouraging Malaysians to cycle on the first Sunday of the month which is called 'Cycling Day' in the city of Kuala Lumpur. We are delightful with the opening of Treknology 3 as this gives cyclists more opportunity to join ‘Cycling Day’. Under the 'River of Life' project, City Hall is considering providing special lanes to encourage public to use bicycle as a main form of transportation in the city,” said Datuk Dr Loga Bala Mohan, Deputy Federal Territory Minister

Cycling for the past 30 over years, I am seeing the number of cyclists is increasing. My passion for cycling has always pushed me to challenge myself and that’s how I manage to set the UCI record before retiring,” said Jens Voigt.
