Trail Category- Jamboree/ Cross Country Race
There are several nominees in this category. Among the top in the list are Perlis RUN10, Kuala Kangsar Jamboree, Kayuh Lasak 2010 and Nibong Tebal Jamboree. Of all, Gerek Baru chooses Nibong Tebal Jamboree 2010 as the best trail of the year. Nibong Tebal Jamboree truly bring the riders satisfaction to the maximum limit. There are varieties of trail profile with different harshness  level and the distance is just nice to the average level of riders.

The event looks almost perfect with everythings were put in its places. The choices of trail, the check point, the water station, the people manning the station, all are properly selected with riders in mind. Affordable accomodation in the hostel also provided for outstation riders. Perlis RUN10 creates a new benchmark for others to compare.

2010-Year of Riders Development

26 December, 2010


Gerek Baru has placed a lot of emphasize on new riders development. In 2010 we had groomed out a lot of new riders and most of them still continue to ride with us in our routine ride every Saturday morning. There are some young riders which show potential and we closely monitor their performance for further exposure. There are also new MTB riders who continue to support our routine ride and all of them are most welcome. For us, if there is a will, there will always be a way to ride.

Grown Up in 2010

23 December, 2010


2010 is year of growth. We are growing up. Like a small kid, we are courious. We like to try new things. Nothing is wrong and perfect for newcomers like us. We are learning and listening. We crank with everybody and anybody.

Gerek Baru is growing up. 2010 can be described as expansion year for the team. The team managed to show its present in every cycling events around. A lot of thanks to high dedication showed by every members. This team never formalised. A sense of belonging and love of cycling keep the team intact. I am happy with the way it is.

Who is running Gerek Baru?
A lot of people are asking me how do we keep this team  running and running every weeks. Yes, every weekend on Saturday morning there will always be a ride organised, and never missed for  MTB offroad. Anybody who are interested can present themselves infront Kedai Basikal D'Pallass, Jalan Hospital, Taman Suria, Jitra every Saturday Morning 7:30 sharp.

In fact, Gerek Baru is running on twin controller and double engine that keep the momentum moving forward.

The twin controller (the brains)
The twin carburator that keep pumping the fuel and the air to the engine are handled by Pudin TTG and Ustaz Raja. The two person are the embassador of Gerek Baru. They handle diplomatic works. They keep linking and contact with other team and riders. They are events manager and the brains. They manage the rides and communication and keep everybody informed. They handle all public relation jobs. Of all, they keep supplying the needed air and fuel to the team..
