Cyclists help spread awareness on dyslexia


Riding the challenge: Youths from the Dyslexia Association of Malaysia taking part in one of the side activities on the first day of the mountain bike challenge at Black Forest Golf and Country Club in Bukit Kayu Hitam.

MORE than 1,000 people took part in the inaugural Black Forest Golf and Country Club MTB (Mountain Bike) Challenge in Bukit Kayu Hitam, Kedah, to raise awareness about dyslexia.

The participants cycled over 50km of road and jungle trails during the two-day challenge flagged off by Bukit Kayu Hitam assemblyman Dato Ahmad Zaini Japar. About 150 children with learning disabilities were also invited to take part in side activities such as a fun run and aerobics organised in conjunction with the event recently.
