Regarding the 3rd to 5th Aug ride, I've paste the latest event update below.
Please tag on the ride to raise your own funds. So far, all the 3 Clubs in Singapore is involve & also Penang Club. We don't need a cut from your fund raising, just inform me how much you raise thru our ride. It's also a motivation for the cyclist whom 90% has never done such a long ride before.

Benefits of this Spore-Malacca-Spore
1) Fund Raising for individual Clubs
2) Building bonding among those involve & between Clubs
3) A way to introduce Apex movement to a younger generation. Bring your younger members involved or student or etc....
4) A publicity among friends that know you personally but not about your Apex involvement
5) A trial run to a bigger event next year. The logistic & challenge involve in managing a bigger cycling event, we can learn from here.
