Hi people!I'm back from the bike hike and it rocked!!!First, we ji he at 5pm we were given 2 hrs break(suppose to be for the weak riders/non-cyclist to practice,i'm not 1 hor!). My patrol went for dinner at macdonald's and then rented a bike like all the other patrols for fun's sake....Later at 7pm, we ji he again with our bags. We went to get our bikes, checked them and we were off! We had those flashing bicycle lights on our bikes so that we could identify each other in the dark night....We also had torches tied to our bikes so that we could see in the dark...We cycled all the way through east coast park only stopping about every 30-45 mins for a 5 minutes break. We cycled in east coast park, cycled on the road, cycled half way round changi airport, cycled at the coast of changi and finally reached changi beach! We arrived at 11pm and spent the night there. We had small chats everywhere while having dinner...we shared the food such as chunky bars, chunky soup, natae(however you spell it), sanwitches etc. We had lights out at 12.30 but some of us slept early coz we were tired...we were to wake up at 5am...I woke up at 3.15 though coz cldn't slp...haha it was a half moon.....the night sky was really breath-taking! At 5, everyone was awake eating breakfast and washing up....later at about 5.30, we did morning exercises, after that, we pumped 20 coz we were 2mins late for morning exercise....at 6.30 or so... we left. During the hike, many people had to stop because of many reasons such as lost of balance or exhaustion.....as for me, being an avid rider, I only stopped once not for the above reasons but for the reason that I did not place my NIKE water bottle properly in the bottle holder while I was drinking while riding and I could not really look down coz I was on the road you see, thus, the bottle dropped and I had to stop to pick it up, that happened this morning. We cycled and cycled and stopped for only about 1 break before reaching east coast compared to the 2-3 breaks the previous night....we arrived at east coast at about 7.30am and we were very early and the bike shop was not open yet. We stopped for 2 breaks lasting 15-20 mins each! Later when we at long last arrived back at the bike shop, we had the bikes returned in a orderly manner and that was the end of the 2-day bike hike...When I reached home, I slept from 11.30 or so to about 2.40 but I was still unwilling to get out of bed, I had to though coz I was going to have tuition in 20 mins! Yup so that's about all...
BCSL signing off!!!
