Members of TRAKS (Trails Association of Kuala Lumpur and Selangor) on a clean-up mission. Trail maintenance is a concern to many users. | BUKIT Kiara was once considered to have some of the best inner-city mountain bike trails in the world, but not any more.  | | Bikers and joggers are unable to use the 15cm thick mud trails. |
 | | Horse riders are one of several stakeholders and no one wants a turf war. | The hill underwent massive development four months ago. To the shock of the bikers, the two-metre wide trails were widened to eight metres.
The joggers who frequent the tracks in Taman Tun Dr Ismail (TTDI), too, are not happy with what Kuala Lumpur City Hall has done. The work was completed a month ago, leaving a 20km long scar criss-crossing the hill.
The expansion was done to accommodate horse endurance racing and horseback riders from the Bukit Kiara Equestrian and Country Resort. Concerned residents, joggers and mountain bike enthusiasts are complaining that the work was haphazard, and fear the trails will not be properly maintained.
Huang Ying How, an avid mountain bike enthusiast and president of the Trails Association of Kuala Lumpur and Selangor (TRAKS), said only the initial land clearing had been done.
"The work related to slope protection, erosion control, drainage and compaction has yet to be done," said the 47-year-old.
He added that the new trails were inaccessible to the public. |

TRAKS Trail Day for April 2008: More Pure Quill |
|
Written by Pat Brunsdon

Monday, 24 March 2008 |
Date: Sunday April 6 2008Meeting Time: 0800 at the junction of Janie's Addiction/Around the Mountain/Pure QuillProject: Finishing Kiara's Pure Quill
April's Trail day will pick up where March left off, continuing the rebuilding of Pure Quill. If we have a good turnout we should be able to "put paid" to it, we have about 250 meters left to do. If you'd like to help you are welcome to join us. There are various ways to get there so to simplify logistics we will meet at the junction of Janie's Addiction/Around the Mountain/Pure Quill at 0800.
We plan to work from 8 until 12 so bring enough food and water to last you as long as you are able to stay. There will be lots of earthwork so changkuls will be the best tool for the job, if you have a rake, parang or saw you can bring that along too as there may be some trimming and clearing of deadfall. Work gloves are a good idea as are shoes that give your feet some protection. No flip flops, please! And don't forget mozzie repellent.
I hope to see you there.
