Who Says Only Children Have Toys

Those of us who have children will know that no matter what, young children will scramble to the toy section of shopping center or a departmental store.

When they become teenagers their taste for toys would have changed to gadgets like PSP, X-Box, or Nintendo WII.

When teens become young adults (especially nowadays), have no qualms getting a pair of branded sunglasses or shoes that cost 5 or 6 hundreds bucks. And we parents just can’t understand why they need to spend so much on these things.

But are we saying adults who are parents do not indulge in toys anymore?

NO!

Sometime we hear people telling us, “I don’t understand why this friend of mine spends so much money and time on his car or motorcycle. Or it could be a Hi Fi set or a Home Theater system.

Ever heard this familiar husband's remarks, “What? This handbag costs $2K or this pair of shoes costs me $1K!

So the point is – WHO SAYS ONLY CHILDREN HAVE TOYS.

Let me introduce the latest TOY bought by a member of Changi Cycling Group.

Cenilli Estrada - Full Shimano Dura Ace gear system A cool $5.5K all in.

These are our TOYs & Cycling is what we DO

This is our Toy - BICYCLE and cycling is what we do. Our spouse may not understand why do we need to spend thousand of dollars on our toys!

"What is wrong with the $80 bike that we see people park at MRT stations", they said.

As a consolation to our spouses, at least our TOYS are bicycles (costly they may be). When we cycle, we keep fit and stay healthy.

Just be at Changi Village Hawker Center or East Coast Hawker Center they will see some Senior Citizen with "THEIR TOYS" - young and sexy, enjoying seafood dinner with a jug of beer with their toys is what they do.

When our spouse compare our TOYs with these Senior Citizen young & sexy "TOYs", hopefully they will encourage us to cycle more and maybe,(I say maybe) they will know what to get for our next birthday
