  • The golf tournament was intended to raise funds for a number of charity organizations.

  • The event was organized by Cigaros MC and Momxys MG.

  • A total of 128 participants took part.

  • Moto Guzzi Malaysia and Harley-Davidson of Petaling Jaya, among others sponsored a number of prizes.

Kota Seriemas Golf & Country Club, 31st March 2017 – While most of us consider any motorcyclist or biker as just that, the community is actually made of an eclectic mix of people, from all walks of life. It’s the shared passion for motorcycles that drove us to unite.

With this in mind, Cigaros MC and Momyxs MG organized the 1st Annual Bikers Invitational Golf Charity Classic (BigCC) 2018 event, bringing together bikers who are also golf enthusiasts.

The friendly competition aimed to raise awareness and funds for two charity homes. The first is Rumah Pakats in Bukit Kerayong, Selangor which is under the auspices of Pertubuhan Amal dan Kebajikan Anak-ank Islam Tersisih Selangor. The home cares for children who are HIV positive, orphans and the poor. The second organization is PJ Caring Homes, which provides care for mentally challenged individuals.

A number of motorcycle brands also sponsored the event, including Moto Guzzi Malaysia, Harley-Davidson of Petaling Jaya and Ducati Malaysia. Ducati Malaysia put up an XDiavel as the prize for the player who scores a hole-in-one. At the same time, Moto Guzzi Malaysia and Harley-Davidson of Petaling Jaya sponsored some fantastic goodies as lucky draw prizes. A few of the products were also put up for auction, and the proceeds that were raised went to the aforementioned homes. Other corporate sponsors were Malaysia Airlines, Holiday Villa Subang, Tanjung Rhu Resort Langkawi, Awana Resort and StarCity Hotel.

The Kota Seriemas Golf and Country Club sponsored provided the venue at a very special rate.

A total of 128 participants who represented different motorcycle clubs and groups took part in the tournament, vying for team, men’s individual, ladies’ individual and novelty categories. There were those who came from as far as Singapore, Brunei and Labuan.

Lucky draw and auction sessions were held throughout the day. Participants and other visitors had the opportunity to test ride the Moto Guzzi V9 Roamer and V7 Stone.

The results were tallied, and the Ducati Desmo Owners Club Malaysia was declared as the winning team, earning each member Malaysia Airlines tickets to Jakarta, besides the champion’s trophy and other prizes.

As for the ladies’ individual category, Nor Cilla Omar emerged victorious while Sura Abdu Rahman was the first runner up.

It was also announced that each home will receive RM 20,000 through the donations and proceeds of the auctions.

Of note, the organizers Cigaros MC and Momxys MG have always been campaigning actively for charities apart from the two during this event. They had organized charity rides for other orphanages, back-to-school relief for flood victims, food for the homeless during Ramadhan, among many others.

  • The Pink October Charity Ride 2017 went off without a hitch today

  • The ride is in conjunction with October being the Breast Cancer Awareness Month

  • About 200 participants joined the ride

Organised by Hawa Motor Club and Ipoh Road Clan together with support from the Malaysian Cancer Society, and hot on the heels of the Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride (DGR) last month, the Pink October Charity Ride (POCR) 2017 proceeded well today.

While DGR sought to raise awareness towards prostate cancer in men, POCR’s objective was a campaign to highlight breast cancer research.

About 200 participants congregated at the Malaysia Handicraft Development Corporation’s (Perbadanan Kemajuan Kraftangan Malaysia) grounds for the flag off.

There was a good mix of motorcycles: From mopeds and scooters, to standard bikes, naked sportbikes, adventure-tourer and 1000cc superbikes; besides the large number of customs and café racers – including the famous Puting Beliung (“tornado” in Bahasa Melayu).

Participants were provided a white T-shirt with the words “Pink October Charity Ride” emblazoned on its back, patches and stickers. They may also donate to the Malaysian Cancer Society (Yayasan Kanser Malaysia).

As more and more riders, young and old arrived, it soon became apparent that this wasn’t a ride which encouraged only female participant. There were as many men as there were ladies. It’s encouraging and heartwarming to see that both the Pink October Charity Ride and DGR transcend the gender barrier, despite both rides sought to raise awareness for afflictions common to respective genders.

And despite gutter politics kicking up religious and race issues, everyone rode together for a common cause, regardless of religion, ethnicity and creed. How common is it to see a 150cc café racer ride alongside an R 1200 GS? Or a Triumph Street Twin next to an S 1000 RR?

The participants were briefed by the Chief Marshal and Royal Malaysian Traffic Police escort, before being flagged off.

The convoy proceeded at a steady pace until it reached Naza Auto Mall in Petaling Jaya.

There were lucky draws and a helmet bidding session throughout the day. Participants were also offered a free health check-up, free of charge.

Seeing the success of this Pink October Charity Ride 2017, we hope the event will continue next year with even more participants.
