Bike Ride to Melaka - 28 April to 1 May 2007

our good cycling buddy Camilia Tay was involved in a car accident just 16 km from Melaka town.
the car hit her from the rear and she was left with a broken (radius & ulna) right arm, broken left wrist & a dislocated right shoulder with cuts & lacerations on her face, chin & chest.
she was sent to a hospital in Singapore on April 28.
she is now in hospital and we pray for her recovery.
may she be back on the saddle soon.
