| The Chinese New Year Ride. Fifth day of the Lunar New Year. 13 February 2005 |
| What does one do on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year. Eat Cakes and Cookies? Well, not if you receive an invitation for a biking trip. The Sekali biking group invited me to join them for this ride by a friend of mine who is a member. Thanks Fuad. |
| Pulau Banding, meaning Banding Island in Malay, is a man made island surrounded by waters of the Banding Lake. This lake came into existance with the building of the Temenggor dam. |
