Langkawi : The Heat Is On!

 Things are starting to come together for the Marco Polo/Herbalife/Museeuw riders at the Tour of Langkawi.

The team is using the race as excellent preparation for the season to come, with team tactics and rider strengths being tested against some of the toughest riders and race terrain on the Asian circuit.

Malaysian rider Loh Sea Keong was active on Stage 3, making the breaks early on and Haider bin Anuwar featuring in the stage finale, placing 17th in the final sprint with Brad Hall not far behind for 27th.

Stage 4 saw more fireworks from Loh Sea Keong before Haider rocketed in for a fine 15th in the hectic final sprint. later in the day, the team had a visit from the staff at Herbalife HQ, so everyone had a great time getting to know their new sponsors.

The toughest stages are yet to come, with the Genting mountains looming on the horizon.  This will be the toughest test for the riders so far this season, but all are looking forward for the challenge!
