Many ppl have been asking me what happened so finally, here's a brief but I won't go into details of injuries: There were 6 of us at the Kpg. Giam coffee shop at Borneo Highlands turnoff. Then Abg. Ali arrived. I left the cafe first to head back to Kch. I then waited further up and 5 riders passed me including AA. I ca...ught up to perhaps 4 seconds behind them and decided to take it easy. I arrived at the blind corner on a hill no more than 8 secs after the crash. What happened I don't know but 4 bikes were down and all had hit the barrier. There were no other people around, just silence.
The crash occurred at 1120hrs. The first bike then turned around and came back and the last bike arrived at the scene soon after. All 4 riders were hurt but after checking I focused on AA to keep him awake as I could tell his was a head injury. I called the ambulance at approx. 1121 hrs and E...mergency service called me back at 1123hrs to reconfirm location. 3 ambulance vans arrived about 45 mins later and were very professional. Jack and Kelvin had left earlier in volunteer cars. Dennis was being taken into an ambulance and I left my bike and jumped in another ambulance to be with AA. I believe he could hear me telling him to fight as I saw response on the cardiogram each time I shouted. But he struggled and passed soon after we arrived at the hospital. The emergency services were very professional and did all they could. To Abg. Ali's family and all his biking friends, I'm so sorry.
