Nearly 500 cyclists took to the streets of George Town, Penang to celebrate Earth Hour 2012. Cyclists came with variety of bicycles gathered at Straits Quay, Tangjung Tokong around 7:00pm. The event started at 7:40pm and the sight was overwhelming with lights flashing red, yellow and blue. It looked like a river of lights filling the road ahead.
From Straits Quay, the convey had to negotiate heavy traffic along the way because it was a Saturday evening and Penangites are all out for a great time in town.
The cyclists finally reached Han Chiang High School about 15km kilometers from the starting point and a small ceremony to switch off the lights at the high school indoor stadium was done in conjunction of Earth Hour 2012 event.
The event was organized by G Club. Here are some of the photos taken by Ronnie Tan.
