Ren Bao set for Genting climb after strong finish

Tsen Ren Bao, a member of St George Continental Cycling Team, is set to tackle the Genting Highlands climb on Thursday, following his strong finish in Stage 4 of Le Tour de Langkawi (LTdL) on Wednesday. The Malaysian rider became the first to cross the finish line in the event, placing him 39th overall. Ren Bao expressed his satisfaction with the race, despite a minor mistake costing him seconds in the Best Asian Rider classification.

He attributed his performance to his light build and the manageable pace of the event. Ren Bao is currently ranked third in the Best Asian Rider classification, 50 seconds behind leader Yuhi Todome. Another Malaysian, Kee Zhe Yie of the Terengganu Cycling Team, is in second place, 35 seconds behind Todome. Ren Bao's younger brother, Tsen Ren Han, also competed in the race and may have an advantage on steeper climbs due to his physique.

Ren Bao expressed excitement about the upcoming match-up with his brother in the Genting Highlands climb.
