#170 : Sunday Ride



didn't say  'oh shit' this time


said  'oh shit'




we saw these guys playing at the 2nd stream


No wonder there is less people in the Mandai/BT
area yesterday and today, StairRider Deck and Fast Paolo
told me there's a race at Kent Ridge today!

Anyway, it was made clear from the start that today's
ride, although longish, will be at a leisurely pace.
Due to that I elected to skip BT and wait for SR Deck
and Paolo at Zheng Hwa.

After a short wait at Zheng Hwa Park, the two came
and the first sentence uttered by SR Deck is '... I'm dizzy ...'
Hehehe it turned out that my decision to skip BT was
correct.

So we had a long rest (around 30 minutes) and
after that, the route taken was NoLights Louie's
Personal Challenge, Reverse Flowy Trail, went
down to the foot of Gangsa and climbed the
first summit, went to first stream, 2nd summit,
2nd stream, u-turned and went to reverse Rooty
Trail, whew!

Lunch was at Bukit Panjang and once that
was over, we all continued the remaining
1/3rd of BT loop and went to Esso to clean our
bikes... which proved difficult for Fast Paolo
as he is suffering cramps on his hamstring, hands,
calves... basically he seems to have cramps everywhere.

Of course, if you ride with us, you'll know that you won't
get any sympathy from us. You'll get jeers instead
like : '...and you want to go to Muar?' ,
'mountain biking huh?' , etc. LOL

Anyway, all's well and good. The bike cleaning session
gave us all some rest and nobody cramped on the
way home :-)

I wonder if our guys did well at Kent Ridge...
