MIRI: Ride Sarawak 360 Tour, and Ride Sabah 360 Tour will be held yearly starting this year.

Leader and adviser of Friendship Riders Miri Sarawak Tour, Suariani Zainie, said the event is family ride and tour affair apart from promoting the ‘Visit Malaysia year 2020’.

“We encourage riders from throughout the state to take part in the Ride Sarawak 360 Tour,” Suariani said when contacted yesterday.

He added that about 20 members of Friendship Riders Miri including himself had just completed the Ride Sabah 360 Tour from Miri to Tawau and back to Miri on Monday.

Along the journey they were welcomed by riders clubs in Kota Kinabalu, Keningau, and other towns, creating a brotherhood of sorts among members of the riders clubs.

Friendship Riders Brunei’s tour leader Mohd Noor Adinin also took part in the ride, which started in Miri, passing through Brunei, Limbang, Temburong, Lawas, Sipitang, KK Sandakan and ended in Tawau before they returned home.

“We hope to hold more rides in Miri and the surrounding districts, and at the same time give assistance to the less fortunate people along the way,” Suariani said.
