PPj president Datuk Hasim Ismail said the trails came in three categories – easy, moderate and challenging – and wound through Putrajaya, revealing the interesting spots along the way.
“Putrajaya is paradise for cyclists. Based on my experience, there are many routes that are perfect for cycling,” he said after opening the cycling trails in conjunction with World Tourism Day Fun Ride yesterday.
About 400 cyclists participated in the event held at Dataran Putra.
