Nice Site man!
It would be nicer if the pages were more consistent in style though. I look forward to seeing more pics in your gallery.

It appears that you have a wealth of information and images for your site topic. The site navigation is not consistent. The header banner is different on the blog. The gallery is a different color scheme, too.
Oh, there is also a store and it doesn't match the color scheme, either. I feel like I am visiting different websites! Well, the store isn't ready yet, so no comments on that yet. The copyright info is black text on green background and is difficult to read. The green text in the gray box doesn't stand out, either.
The site feels like it was created with an editor like Dreamweaver, especially with that site navigation menu. I see that alot when I review sites from the college graduates who are new at web design. The site search did not find any results for "bike" or "biking" when I tested it. Don't know how useful that will be to your visitors.
Okay, the word for you is "consistent" as jeff1022 already mentioned. ;)

thanks for taking the time to comment.
i realise that there are inconsistency between pages, especially the gallery and store. those were developed by third party and i haven't had the time to change the styles. will get down to changing them soon.
will fix the other color schemes as well.
i started developing the site using dreamweaver but changed to topstyle. it handles css much better.

Much as I don't like things in US$ (I am after all British!) I do at least know roughly the conversion rate. RM as a currency means nothing to international viewers so I'd suggest using US$ as most will know the conversion rate to their own currency. (Reference to RM values of cycles in polls/surveys.)

Disregarding all the technical stuff posted by others :) I found this a nice site to visit. I liked the color scheme. I send quite a number of CDs to people in Malaysia, so it was interesting to me to see information about your country and pictures of what the mountains and scenery are like.
I think you've done a fine job with your content, and was a bit amazed that you managed to get such an appropriate domain name. ;)

I don't usually critique websites, but I bike myself so I was interested. Looks like you have a great start. The top page looks very sleek and professional - good work. I do agree with the above comments about the importance of common look/feel from page to page. Branding is very important so the user knows where they are.
I would suggest that if you are going to display the linked W3C icons, that your page in fact validates - LOL

keyplyr,
Thanks for pointing out the invalid w3c link. fixed that. must have forgotten to checked it after updating the page. :o
regarding the consistency, well i am working on changing it. its a bit slow moving as its written by a third party. its messy trying to mod their codes.
mrmagill,
thanks for the great comment. glad that you liked the content. I am constantly adding more content when i have some spare time. i will also be adding more picture in the gallery soon.
i hoping to add a page for the various cycling routes in malaysia. i am in the midst of compiling them.
