Langkawi International MTB Challenge 2012 - Kedah

Welcome to the Langkawi International Mountain Bike Challenge, or LIMBC, Asia’s most promising and exciting mountain bike stage race (some say it’s the hottest too!).
Langkawi, the beautiful ‘Island of Legends’ off the west coast of Peninsula Malaysia offers just about everything for the adventurous and those seeking major MTB fun in the sun. LIMBC attracts every level of rider - male and female – the young and not so young – regardless of whether you are amongst the worlds best UCI MTB World Cup regulars or an enthusiastic ‘Weekend Warrior’ looking for the best in experience and adventure – Langkawi welcomes you all!
The challenge itself presents an exciting but demanding balance of open and singletrack trails that traverses a multitude of terrains including rubber plantations, idyllic beaches, paddy fields, mountainous jungle and a 300million year old rainforest!
Since 2010, LIMBC has made great progress – in the past two years we’ve grown from a two-day event to a five-day event in 2011. 2012 brings an extra day with a short opening prologue to ‘gently’ get things underway followed by longer and more technical stages than previous, including a roller-coaster 90km marathon through Langkawi’s stunning GeoPark!
So whilst LIMBC 2012 brings a few extra challenges and changes, one thing that we’re pretty sure is unlikely to change is the temperature… which we guarantee will be HOT & HUMID!
There are just 500 spots available… so if you fancy the challenge, sign up quickly and join us in Langkawi this October… it promises to be the experience of a lifetime!”
