KAMPAR: Terengganu's Cycling Team, TSG, rider Nur Aiman Rosli secured the white jersey as the best Asian rider after the opening stage of Le Tour de Langkawi (LTdL). The 27-year-old completed the 193-kilometre race from Shah Alam to Kampar, finishing in 4 hours, 6 minutes, and 53 seconds. Aiman earned points in two sprint zones, finishing 70th overall among 119 riders.
His teammate, Hijiri Oda from Aisan Racing Team, was second with the same time, while Izzat Hilmi Abdul Jalil from Malaysia Pro Cycling finished third. Aiman initially planned to join a breakaway for sprint points but had to adjust his strategy in the third sprint zone due to the front group widening. For Stage 2, the peloton will tackle a more challenging climb, with a 145.6km route from Taiping to Gunung Jerai featuring three sprint zones and two climb zones.
