Group Ride


Lunch in KFC @Mandai Zoo

Since the location of the past 2 weeks' Group Rides were all in the East, today's group ride
was done in BT area. 7 people had breakfast @ King Albert Park McDonald's and of course,
when we were jussttt about to go to the trails, the 8th member of the group showed up.

We cycled to Rifle Range Road and divided into 2 groups. The 1st group, led by
'StairRider' Deck, went to the entrance to BT carpark. I led the 2nd group.
We climbed Rifle Range and went in
the opposite direction of Belukar Track (I think that's the name).

We went to Zheng Hua and waited there for the 1st group. Once the 1st group came,
every one went to BF Trail. Well, that is every one minus two casualties (due to exhaustion).
I led the two casualties to the exit of BF Trail and I left them there so I can do a Reverse BF loop.

Once I met the 'leaders' of the 1st group inside BF, I took some videos, and headed back to the exit.
Once the group was complete, we then went to Sc Trail. 'Roadie' Rio decided that he has
had enough of Sc Trail and went home via Bukit Panjang Exit.

From Sc Trail, we continued cycling thru T15. It was there at T15 where 'SuperWoman' Dee
was stopped by a gang of monkeys which tried to take her bike away from her. 
She showed them that she can fly and land on her right shoulder unharmed.
When the monkeys saw that, they immediately proclaimed her as their deity and offered
her bananas to appease her. This is a true story. She has the battle wounds to prove it plus
there's the fact that monkeys didn't get her bike.

By the way, 'StairRider' Deck has prophesized that one day some thing like
 this will happen at the exact same spot!

After 'SuperWoman' Dee showed us the battle wounds she got, we then took the BKE exit to Mandai.
I think it was already 1PM by this time and everybody unanimously voted the KFC
at the Zoo as the place to have lunch.

After lunch, 'Superwoman' Dee said she's had enough of mountain biking in general
and monkeys in particular. So she decided to call a cab :-(
We awarded her the Purple Heart, made sure she got a cab and then all of us sprinted home.
Here's a short clip of the group ride.

Till next week !
