Another Tuesday ride with SWCT. But today only 3 of us. Sam who led 2 girls, one is Chyrol and another one is me. Only small group, so we decided to go for leisure biking. Haha, really go for marketing leh...with slow pace, we cycled to Yishun Sport Center to visit Sam's kick boxing gym. Afterthat, cycled to Seletar reservior. We have a nice ride along reservior. Then across Jalan Kayu, turned to Punggol Way which is quite a new route for me. I don't really remember how we turned to Punggol Jetty, where i only know there was a few turnings around 15km before reaching Jetty. The 15km stretch has no car and less traffic, so me and Chyrol sprint up.....haha, there was really a nice sprint....
A relax pace all the way....Sam brought us to a coffee shop where we stopped for a drink and nice toast bun. Though today only a small group, but i think better still which can bring a step forward for our friendship. Tonight we cycled only 40km, but it took longer hours to marketing ( slow pace:P). Well, we might going to Desaru riding this weekend. Be waiting for my next ride story:)
Night Ride to Punggol Jetty 17-Apr'07
Night Ride to Lim Chu Kang, 3rd-Apr 2007
6:30pm received a sms from night ride leader-Eugene, let's go for ride tonight! Immediately i replied him " okay, see u tonight" despite i was tiring of travel up and down to KL last weekend.
So, meet at Casuarina roti prata shop at 8pm as usual. There was about 10ppl going for the ride tonight. When Eugene told us that we are going to ride to Lim Chu Kang, i was thinking on myself how to ride so long distance to there? Then Eugene explained to me there is an another way to Lim Chu Kang beside west coast road. Nah, tonight im going to learn another new route.
1st, cycled along Upper Thomas road then turned left to Mandai road. Straight all the way until the T-junction and then turned right to Woodland road. Next traffic light, turned left to Kranji way which eventually connected to Neo Teo road (Lim Chu Kang).
When we cycled at Neo Teo road, that really make us felt scary. There is less traffic, quiet place and only farm, bushes and few houses along the road....that make us pedal more faster. Yeah, forget to make a point here, tonight all the cyclist are quite good, average speed is above 30km/hr....i was still managed to catch up with them for 1st 30km, then was dropped at the back for last 20km. We were covered 50km ride tonight plus distance from home to Casuarina is another 8km. So total we cycled 58km.
Then after passed by Neo Teo road, the scary path....we continue came to chicken farm on our right...wah, really smelly...cant tahan it, so i tried to cycle faster. But still at speed around 28km/hr. I was not performed well tonight, maybe too tire.
Then we passed by Chua Chu Kang, from there we link back to Mandai road then back to Upper Thomas road. Stop at Kopitiam at end of Mandai road for drink and dinner. Then reached home around 11.30pm. And now is 12:10am where i m writing this blog:P
Even though i was not performing well this time, but i really great that i m back to cycling now. At least friendship among cycling can be improved from now on...i think i will ride more to improve my stamina. Let see any blog update on cycling again:)
