The Begining



This is how it started.

Sometime in Dec 07, where we realised that at our age we can't keep on running cross-country at Mac Ritchie Reservoir. Our joints are wearing out.

But we want and we need to keep fit.

Well, one of us got a old racing bike - classic Raleigh, good bike. The rest of us no bikes.

So one day we went to Changi Beach Park, rented a bike each and off we go, cycling along the Changi Park Connector Network (PCN).

Immediately we fall in love.

The next few weeks we started looking for bikes. At that time our intention was just to cycle, have fun and keep fit.

We also take into consideration the convenience of carrying our bikes in our cars. So after surfing the web, I bought a "Foldable Bike". Reasonable good bikes - Dahon D7. It just fit nicely into the boot of my small little Hyundai Getz, without a need to fold my seats.

So what did we have at that time. One with a good classic racer, two with foldable bikes and another with a mountain bike - good enough just to commute to MRT Station, others with rental bikes.

Every twice a week without fail, we paddle along the Changi PCN and we venture further and further, all the way to East Coast Park.

We got "hooked" - literally hooked to cycling. And as time passes, more joined the group.

This is how it started. This is where our story begins. This is where we wish to share our adventures and why cycling is one good way to to keep fit and healthy.

Let Keep Fit & Live a Good Life.
