UniKL MSI have participated in Malakoff Interstate Fellowship Ride 2010 together with more than 700 cyclist around Malaysia. The ride took over  238 km covering the three states of Penang, Perak and Kedah. The two-day Ride spans over 31 December 2010 and 1 January 2011, covering challenging terrains of 171 km and 67 km, respectively.

The Ride was co organised by The Penang State Government, Penang Sports Council, KOTRT and Malakoff Corporation Berhad (Malakoff) . While the participants paddle into the dawn of 2011 traversing the scenic 13-km Penang Bridge with a reinforced commitment to healthy lifestyles, the ride was aim to raise fund for charity organizations.

This ride was joyful even though, we need to face challenges along the journey and of course paddling mtb bicycles, we can't follow the strokes phase of the roadbikes. We were glad to participate this event as we meet lot's of people from different background; as young as standard 1 to old folks who keen to cycle. We were also taken that opportunities to introduce them to UniKL as a premier engineering technology  university in Malaysia. 

We do hope for the coming fellowship rides, the numbers of cyclist from UniKL MSI will increase and we are also glad to ride together with colleague from different UniKL campuses to tighten and strengthen the networking of the fellowships of the riders.
