Cyling half of Singapore on 13Jan'07 (Saturday)

Was going for a ride around half of Singapore that Saturday (13th Jan). Remember just after Langkawi 120km ride, so the leg still quite strong. We have about 10riders.

That day we were meeting at Adam hawker center and started the ride at 9am after short breakfast. Before reached meeting points, i was cycled nearly 10km from Ang Mo Kio to Adam road. Then we were heading to West Coast along the Upper Bukit Timah road, then turned left to Clementi road, straight along it up to junction and turned right into West Coast highway. This eventually will join to Jalan Buroh. Sprint all the way up to junction of right turn to Jalan Boon Lay and joined to Jalan Bahar. Along this strech, less traffic and wide road. It was nice to speed up. Due to stamina build up from last week ride, i was managed to catch up the 1st group, which was 2 guys and 2 girls. That 2 girls were really good rider, fast and riding a good bike also.

Along the Jalan Bahar, we came to a isolated area where there is farm and plantation around that around. This place called "Lim Chu Kang' I really felt myself in Malaysia where a lot of plant, trees and countryside scenery. I never knew that Singapore has such nice place. I was slow down to look around the scenery when i ride on this road. Well, fast and furious group will not waiting for me, so i was been left behind. Then i was cycled alone about 5km up to a junction to Neo Tiew road. I decided to make the turn. Then came to another junction to Kranji road Turf Club. There i met another rider and we waited for group behind. After regroup, we continue cycled along that road and turned to Woodland road where we were closer to Woodland Checkpoint!! That was surprised me:) There my bike meter shows about 70km ride. That mean i was cycled from North Center (AMK) to West and back to North (Woodland) was 70km distance. After regroup with 1st group, we continue our journey by making a u-turn at Woodland checkpoint there. Then we were cycled a long Woodland road and passed by Chua Chu Kang. That started cycled in drizzlling. So we decided to make a stop for lunch. After lunch, we continue cycled along Woodland road and joined to Upper Bukit Timah road. Then joined to Clementi road and make left turn to Commonwhealth road. The joined to Alexander road, Ganges road and finally we reached Havelock road. From there i was separated from the group, as i know i reached Chinatown area where i can looked for my brother already:)

So when i reached my brother shop, i was cycled 90km for half circuit of Singapore!! I really felt very satisfied with achievement!! That also considered as small achievement:p Sometime we need to consider some small and easy task as one of target in our daily life, so that we can achieve it with little effort and eventually make yourself felt satisfied!!

Will make another post again for my ride with SWCT Singapore.
