Hello 2009

Hola,
2008 passed thru in a jiffy... lots of things happened and we love it so much.
as we look back our achievement in 2008, really is a sweet memory. And not forgetting all our injuries we sustained hahahahaha....
The most exciting event for 2008, KLD 2008 (Kuala Lumpur Downtown). ROAM managed to be up-close and personal with Peaty and CG. Rare opportunity and experience to be able to hang out and chill with them.
UB,

Only managed to race locally due to work constraint. Didn't race in Lumut due to severe crash. Didn't race in KLD 08 due to fractured left ribs. Well my story is almost the same with Red.

Red

Busted his wrist right before Bandung Oakley in March. Raced in Kao Lahn, Pattaya. Broke and fractured his right ribs before KLD '08. Have to sit out 3 races after KLD. But Champ the Master Category for the final installment of KKD #5

Master Yamm,

He got tremendous results for 2008. Always racing abroad, brought back trophies, medal and of course and a podium purse.

A-Mud,

Posted in Jakarta. Became ROAM ambassador there. Riding and racing ROAM colors in Indonesia.

FA,

Super fast guy did well in earlier KDD. 5th in KLD. But injured himself in Ciwalk Urban DH and sit out KDD #5. Stuntmant for a drink advertisement, again injured himself in the process.

Ameer,

Our Junior ROAMer has its up and down for 2008. Need to train more Mr. For-T-Uno hahahahaha

Felix a.k.a Insane, our German ROAMer came to Malaysia for a short stint.

AC,


Our very own ROAMeo. Recruited by Red in 2008, this pretty boy really knows how to throw down few tricks. Finished 2nd in Bukit Cermin DH Challenge only after few months in DH.
Dislocated his elbows while skateboarding in Shah Alam right after KLD 08.
