amk-punggol-tampines-pasirris-changivillage-airport-eastcoast-kallang-esplanade-harbourfront-pasirpanjang-clementi-bukittimah-bukitbatok-mandai-aroundyishun-sch
hmmm i think i missed out some place
all the way until east coast was alright.. jsut that the butt ached like mad.
it started aching when we were still at amk! HAHHAHHA
haha. our ass is so gonna have the mark of the bicycle seat if we continued to cycle. HAHAH
airport stretch is humongous.
i asked the guide how long more. she said after junction. then reach le
like SOOO LONG passed.. but the junction is still yet to be seen.
we sang christmas carols too!
i like eastcoast!the first place we cycled without cars.
shiok!
i learnt something new there too!
i know how to cycle without hands for quite a distance le leh!
surprisingly!
anyways.. if u wan to know how to do it.. just try it..
cycled cycled cycled..
clementi that stretch... hmmm sucky. hahah
SLOPES AFTER SLOPES
bukit timah all that also
wahlao!
mad la!
even the gentlest slope can irritate you!
we had to POWERUP all the way DOWN a slope.. so as to get the momentum to go up the next slope. yes. and usually it isnt enough.
had to change the gears to the lowest and paddle ALOT!
MAD!
reached sch around 7.50. we've shortened the route by like 15km la
suppose to be 120km. but we only did 105
we got a cert too!
interesting! we were like rotting when we reached the store area.
i think.. this whole thing is about perseverance.. and endurance
it wasnt really physically tiring.. (except the butt, back aches)
it was mentally draining. yes.
PERSEVERE and u will get there!
had breakfast at the new macs!
walked super slowly there.
and we were giggly there.
laughing at the smallest thing..
8 mad people there
HAHAHHAH
thanks to all who've encouraged me on the way!
