Just returned from 2 'extreme' cycling trips.First was cycling with 9 other classmates in the afternoon.
Second was cycling with 20 other scouts in the night.
Haha shall start off with the first one...
Met at Ehub on thursday morning 9am
Then slowly the peeps started flowing in...
darren... jiayi... pamela... kenneth... candice... zhenfeng... dickson...
zhiwei.... then finally ben.chen :D
Then the rest except me, zhiwei, dickson and zf rented bikes..
And we took off at approximately 11.15
Cycled p.ris ParkCoNnector (PCN) till tampines
then cycled to Bedok Resevoir....
Along BR road...... Into bedok town park...
Bedok north road... bedok central... bedok south....
then finally upper east coast and we reached ECP.
Stopped for lunch, and headed toward changi from there.
Almost died at the the Uber long stretch of runway.
I just saw the topo map and roughly that whole stretch is about 6km
haha... then we met with some problems then we got carried away
And eventually split up.
The first group stopped at changi beach park and waited for the 2nd.
But Zhiwei and i had to go because of his parents, and my course.
So we took off first and cycled to changi village...
loyang ave.... and down to ngee ann.
I cant cycle anymore so i parked and took a bus home :/
Went for BM at kallang basin and realised that i'm cooked by the sun.
Hhahaha then i experienced the worse swimming moment of my life.
throughout the warm up.... the 315 tow... and cool down..
I kept having sever cramps until in whatever position
I placed my leg in, it is sure somehow or another cramp.
And it got so bad that derrick have to pull me out of water.
Hahaha, so boys and girls at home,
Dont swim after you cycle okay? LOL
Okay then yesterday evening i met justin dk and derrick
at ngee ann.... got ready our bikes
I wasn't even sure whthr i could make it that night.
Because of the day before's cramps and aches.... X.X
Bt anyway i just went on ahead...
As the guys slowly came... the first 10 met in ngee ann.
Then we took off to ECP.
Reach the designated meeting place to see our BOSS mr hazmi.
Then the other 11 scouts came down too... and we met each other.
So one big gang, some of us started renting bikes and got ready.
We took off at 2200 towards changi direction...
Jeremy sir suddenly popped up halfway... surprised all of us. haha
Then somewhere along the changi road, zhihao's tyre burst.
So we like stoned and made secondary plans, then continue to Changi village.
reached changi village at around 0000. then we ate and ate and ate.
And after that briefed the guys where are we going next.
Then from changi we cycled down Loyang Avenue,
Turned into pasir ris.
But along the way accident no.2 happened.
Justin's $1200 bicycle tyre's burst. LOL
so he waited for jeremy sir to pick him out while we continued.
went down the super steep and long slope down into p.ris.
And accident no.3 happened, Junjie fell down.
After he got taped up we continued until we reached Downtown East
at around 0200
Met up hazmi thr tgt with j.sir and ky.sir, then dicussed the next route.
at 0300, led the guys frm p.ris to ngee ann, then to bedok resevoir.
Started raining when we were about to reach bedok reservoir.
So we aborted 'cycle 1 round around bedok resevoir' plan
And aborted 'cycle straight to ECP'
Took shelter under mr joseph teo's HDB flat.
Around 4.30 we continued in the light drizzle
and wooooooo... it was damn cold.
So cycled down bedok towards ECP...
Eventually at 6, everyone reached ECP safe and sound and cold and wet.
Haha planted ourselves in mac... ate breakfast.
slowly one by one left and i cycled off alone into the morning air.
departed at 7.45 and arrived at my house at 8.30 sharp.
Haha 45mins, im so happy. LOL
blah....
blah.... Blahhh..
And now im here typing. hehe
Surprisingly thr wasnt any part of the night cycling trip that
i felt like my leg was gonna drop off or get ripped apart if i cycled any further
Only my butt's suffered the most T.T
Haha oh well... shall rest it now.
My butt's taking a nap.. shhhh
Shall go do some work now...
shhhh.... bye bye....!
