Team Magnum on NanYang news 060512

News about roadbike or rather interview about roabike which conducted by NanYang newspaper. 
It's interview on Team Magnum. 


在这次活动中,Team Magnum 迎来两位“贵宾”,他们是PCC(Pedalholics Cycling Club)的主席Don chan 和副主席Alvin Chan。
In this activity, Team Magnum invited 2 V.I.P, they are from PCC president Don Chan and vice president Alvin Chan. We all know who are them, Don Chan & Alvin Chan! Both of them are the engine behind Inter-State 2012 recently! Okay, i know them, they might not know me.  haha... 

Don chan (左)和Alvin Chan (右),清晨6时就已经出现在集合点上,准备与大家并肩并一起骑单车。

接获Team Magnum邀请他们参与单车活动的来函后,他们马上答应,也兑现了诺言出现在集合点。有他们的出现仿佛为队友们打了一支强心针,大大地提升队友们的士气。
倡导单车安全意识
Don Chan & Alvin was invited to attend Team Magnum's activity. Their attendance to the gathering boasted morale and motivation among cyclists.

单车后座安装了红灯座,以保车手的安全。

大马单车活动在这几年慢慢兴起,而PCC是在约5年前成立的,它是一个非盈利组织,当时单车运动风潮慢慢地吹进大马来,加上其他城市如台湾已经兴起这项运动,以至于越来越多人喜欢,而Don Chan 和Alvin Chan就是其中两位,他们决定成立了该组织。PCC 主要的任务是推动单车运动和倡导人民对单车的安全意识。

Roadbike in Malaysia are slowly getting popular in the community. PCC was established as non-profit organization 5 years ago with objective of promoting cycling activities and raising awareness on safety of cycling to the public.  At that time, the hype of riding roadbike were influenced by oversea city like Taiwan.

他说,尽管大马已经兴起单车好几年,但是道路方面的设施不完善,没有完善的单车通道,很容易出现车祸,至于其他交通工具的车主,面对单车时,一般上都会表现得有点措手不及,不知道如何应付走在车前的单车队伍。

Although the cycling activities are getting popular in Malaysia, but the road condition are not perfect, or not cycling friendly more over lack of proper cycling lane in city.

“到底车主是需要越过他们呢,还是在后面慢慢行走?这些交通意识,我们大马人没有什么概念,以至于单车手常常处于危险的状态中。
事实是,车主看见单车在前走时,必须放慢速度,不要靠得太近,然后找机会越过他们,越过他们时不能在转弯处,车主可以先发出轻微的车笛声,暗示他们要越过,单车手自然就会往旁边停下来。”
提供安全道路环境
他指出,希望政府能够在全马各地设建单车径,妥善分隔单车径及马路,避免单车进入马路,好为骑单车人士提供一个较安全的道路环境。
另一旁的Alvin Chan表示,除了其他交通车主安全意识要提升外,单车手的安全意识也要加强,例如佩戴安全装备如头盔等。

Beside safety traffic awareness, cyclist also need to have self safety awareness too example wearing safety helmet. 

“有许多外国城市都有规定单车者必须带头盔,以策安全。但大马却仍未有这项规定,佩戴者纯属自愿性质,往往因为没有足够保护而造成不必要的伤亡。

若单车手发现自己体力不支,就必须停下来坐在路旁休息一会,假如硬撑,这样反而更危险,往往会让自己晕倒在路边,一旦马路上的车辆来不及刹车,很可能会酿成车祸。”
一般上,他们是不会鼓励单车手在幽暗的马路行走,因为路上偶尔会出现飙车党,会出手抢夺他们的财物,所以不要为了这而去冒险。“单车手必须要自重,懂得如何保护自己远离危险地带,这样才算是合格的单车手。”

What you should do when you found yourselves lack of energy to continue cycling? Stop and rest at road side for a while. If you're continue cycling ignoring your weak body status, it's will be dangerous and possible you might be faint at roadside. If there's incoming car on the road, the driver will not able to respond in time to break and might be hitting the cyclist. Normally, they did not encourage cyclist to cycling along on dark condition route and you might encounter robber to rob your precious bike and money. A cyclist must know how to behave, respect and protect themselves, that's important criteria to a quality cyclist.

抽筋怎么办?
急速骑行很容易引起抽筋,感觉有征兆时,应尽快减速下车。
手指:抽筋的手先握拳,然后用力伸张打开,反复此动作,直到复原。
手掌:两掌相合,未抽筋的手掌用力压抽筋的手掌向后弯,再放开,重复动作,至复原为止。
手臂:抽筋的手先握拳,再将小臂屈肩,然后伸臂伸掌,重复动作,至复原为止。
足趾:用手握住抽筋的脚趾,向后拉,重复动作,至复原为止。
小腿:用手握住抽筋一侧的脚趾,用力向后拉,另一手向下压住膝盖,使腿伸直,重复动作,至复原为止。
大腿:将大腿和膝盖弯曲至腹部前,双手环抱,再放开并将腿伸直,重复动作,至复原为止。
骑车当中发生抽筋时,除了紧急处理外,回家后至少要有数日的热敷及涂药按摩,避免再次抽筋。
