#271 - Thinking Out of the Box

Jungle Trail in TT
Most MountainBikers know by now that Tampines Trail will
soon make way for a new town (i.e. Tampines North). There are
plans to look for a suitable alternative site ... but I'm not holding
my breath for that one.
 
Anyway, MTB Chatmate Alex sent me a link this morning.
.... and that is why the title of this post is Thinking Out of the Box.
Apparently, Alex and his kakis were bouncing ideas around and
it dawned on them : Why not make the Tampines Bike Park
a unique feature of the new Tampines North town?
 
So instead of the usual shopping mall with the usual tenants
(e.g. Giordano, McDonald's, etc.), why not have a Bike Park
instead? Yesss, keeping the whole Bike Park as it is now will
definitely limit the space for new houses. So why not just keep
the BMX part?
 
So head on to this link and read the whole article. Who knows,
we might be able to save a piece of TBP?
