Cold March into March

Been a cold and wet day. And it's March already. It's been rather wet these days. How to organize cycling like that? Hahaha!

28th February 2009, Saturday

Went to 2nd International Bicycle & Motorcycle Exhibition (BikeAsia) at Singapore Expo with Naizhu and Kim. Was wondering what kinda interesting things we can see there. There wasn't much people in the exhibition hall, which is great. Usually exhibitions like IT shows have crowds thronging to them. At BikeAsia, we could actually drive a car around the aisles easily because of the wide open space available. There were plenty of AWESOME bikes and bicycles on display. Although I'm not a biker, but the sight of such cool machines sure makes any guy wanna own one. Plenty of bicycles, especially racers, were on display. However the highlights of the event were the bike trials and bicycle trials. We only managed to catch a sight of a few bicycle trials done by some bicycle clubs from other countries as well as from Singapore. Oh I actually didn't expect to see show girls at the event because I thought it was only just bikes and bicycles, not like a motor show or what. But there were actually a few of them around. How nice to take pictures of beautiful girls and beautiful bikes all at once! Naizhu and I also tried a strange-looking bicycle, or do you call it quintcycle? It has a rear wheel, with 4 very small wheels replacing the normal front wheel of a bicycle. Kinda weird maneuvering the whatever-you-call-it. There was this small area for us to try out on that bike. There were also two electric bikes, run solely on electricity, for people to try driving around. Cool stuff. Ok enough talk. Just let the pictures do the talking.
This model got the baby face look. Always seen at many exhibitions around.
This is an up and coming supermodel. Oops. Wrong it's Kimmie. Haha but still. Not bad eh?
NZ tries his hands on the weird-looking bike.
Bike with two-front wheels.
This model is the most professional one I feel.
She never fails to pose for anyone who wants to take pictures of her.
This picture is to show that we actually went to BikeAsia.
Not me grabbing pictures from others or what. Hahahha!!


After the exhibition, I went down to Bugis Junction. There was guild outing at 6:45pm but I reached at 6pm. So I decided to go to the LAN shop to watch people playing games. Somehow I caught a "Pmuj has pawned XXX's head for XXX gold." on someone's monitor. I was wondering whether it could just be that Jump I always play with at our usual DotA sessions. So I scanned around and sure enough, I see him sitting there playing. So I went over to him and said hi and then proceeded to watch him play the game until it was time for me to meet up the others. LOL so zhun sia. He must be taking a break before going back to his shop.

So then I met up with Ron, kirei, sheep4, the Oreoz, kopi and Herbie and the youngest sister (forgot her nick) at BluJaz restaurant pub in the area. Nice place to chill out. We got seats at the second floor luckily, though they got some cock-up for LY's reservations made earlier. We then had dinner in that very dark corner of ours, then played "Multiples of 7" suggested by Herbie. Oh we also treated birthday boy OreoCheezZ to Waterfall. His faced turned red as lobster as an aftermath. sheep4 also turned red after one glass of Tiger beer. Looks like it's not a good idea to drink with them hehehe. Ron got forced by me to drink. Finally see Ron drinking hehehe. Then we talk cock around and zuobo around until 9+ before we left. Nice place to hang out sia. Great gathering too. More to come I hope. =)
And just as I was preparing to take pictures of the Waterfall being lit by the staff, my batteries went dead. So the pictures taken onwards were taken by Herbie. Have to get from her before I can post them here. Stay tuned!
