KRI – IPOH CYCLING TEAM
Ipoh Cycling Team is a division of Kelab Roadrunners Ipoh, KRI, the premier running club in Perak. KRI was formed in 1987 and today has more than 400 members, men & women of all ages, races and backgrounds who come together to run, train & enjoy the outdoors
Since 2005, a sub-group of KRI members have also taken up cycling in addition to running as a means of keeping fit. The passion for cycling quickly grew as fellow cyclists got together regularly to ride, plan events and organize races (Ipoh Mountain Bike Fellowship Ride, Century Rides, Ladies Fellowship Ride are some of the events.) Ipoh Cycling Team consists of about 60 regular riders, this maverick group meet regularly to cycle together. A regular group of 30-50 cyclists look forward to every Sunday morning long distance riders averaging a distance of 60-100 km. Different routes are attempted each week, taking the cyclists all over Perak. In between weekly rides, the Ipoh cyclists also enjoy hanging out at the favourite coffee shops engaging in – you guess it – cycling talk.
These days, the conversation is mainly centred on the up coming Century Ride with just another six weeks to go before the Big Event, there is much to talk about. Being a small group, every member of the Ipoh Cyclists has an important role to play to ensure the success of the Century Ride.
