The 3-Nation Charity Ride 2011 (3NCR)

September 20th, 2011, Kuala Lumpur – For the first time in Malaysia, the annual 3 Nation Charity Ride will be organised in the historical city of Malacca on 18th-20th November 2011. 17 years after it was established, the event remains as the biggest gathering of Super Bikers in the South East Asian region motoring calendar.

The “3-Nation Charity Ride” has been officially organized annually since 1994. This is the biggest event on the regional biking calendar and has been participated by thousands of big capacity motorcycles and bikers from Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore and other countries around the Asian region. This yearly event is held to raise funds for charity and also bring all bikers from across the borders together.

The 3-Nation Charity Ride has also set a national record and was listed in the Malaysian Book of Records for the Largest Superbike Gathering in 2002. Over the years, the event has raised more than RM1.5 Million which have been distributed to charity homes identified by the host country.

Last year, the event saw over 1200 Bikers gathered in Hatyai for a great cause. Team Hanuman of Thailand was the host and organizer of the 3 Nation Charity Ride 2010. The funds raised were distributed to „The Princess Mother‟s Hundred Year Honour Fund‟, and three other schools, namely Jai Border Patrol Police School, Baan Baroi Police School and Sarn Fhan Rak Foundation School.

This year, the 3 Nation Charity Ride event comes to Malaysia, organized by the Super Bikers Club Malaysia. The event will be held in the historical city of Malacca from 18th to 20th November 2011, with Mahkota Hotel as the official event hotel.

The beneficiaries identified this year are a few local charities in Malacca and OrphanCARE. The Malacca charities include Persatuan Kebajikan Insan Istimewa Melaka, Rumah Anak-anak Yatim Darul Ai Tam, Bhagawan Sri Ramakrishna Charity and Welfare Association and Yayasan Toh Puan Zurina.

“We hope to raise about RM100,000 for this year‟s panel of charities to be distributed equally”, said Super Bikers Club Malaysia President, Lt. Gen (R) Tan Sri Mohamed Bin Ngah Said.

Organizing Chairman, Hashemi Albakri said that “As an event that moves around the region, many of the new generation bikers and motorcycle club groups around Malaysia might not realize the rich and long history of this event for a good cause. This is a great way to also experience being part of the biggest and longest charity biking event and network with various bikers and other clubs from the region.”

The 3 Nation Charity Ride event has been rolling from strength to strength since 1994 and is organized annually by one of four founding clubs, which are Super Biker Club Malaysia, Penang Motor Sports Club, Team 27 Singapore and Team Hanuman Thailand. Every year the organizers rotate to host the event and choose the charity organizations that will benefit. This year, the baton is handed to Super Bikers Club Malaysia.
