Nah... just my legs. Still feeling lazy to move around after the 12-hour nite cycling trip. Previously I organized this cycling for MKG people because Ah-Ma wanted to try nite cycling, but in the end they never turn up for any nite cycling events I organized. *faint* Therefore I extended the invitation to other friends.

This time a different group of people turned up, as compared to last year's. Almost everyone else were either busy or last minute fly aeroplane. Ok whatever. As least there's still 4 of us. I went to get a new water-bottle for my bike, as well as a seat cushion. Nice! Now my butt doesn't hurt as much as before hahah. I met up with Clifton and Shirley and we then proceeded to the Bedok Camp hawker centre. Zhunzhun Zhangjing just finished his RT and bumped into me. Hahaha! So we then sat down and had dinner together. We shared our favourite beef lasagne as usual. And as usual the chengteng store had a super long queue, therefore I couldn't grab my hands on a bowl of the coveted dessert. Damn!.

So ZJ went home while we continued cycling down to ECP, where Jacenta, Clifton's ex-colleague, joined us. She then rented a bike and we started our nite cycling as planned. We went according to my planned route, and ended up at Lau Pa Sat for our first water break. Seeing that we don't know the route to the Marina Barrage, we decided to just go ahead and aim for Henderson Waves. It was the first time I actually saw the bridge from the bottom. So we then took a few pictures before going back down and went on to Alexandra Arch. This time I actually reached it before the lights went out. So we took plenty of pix and rested for quite a while there. Then the clock struck 12 midnight and the lights went out. It was total darkness except for the moonlight and once again I led my group of cyclists through the winding path amidst the forest. We reached the end of the Forest Walk after pushing our bikes for like 15 minutes or so. Then we took a short rest before heading to Henderson Waves. Once again it was an awesome view and we hung around there for quite some time taking lotsa pix too.

Next up was supper! We reached the end of the bridge and Clifton decided that we take the staircase route to Telok Blangah Heights. We had to push our bikes down a long flight of staircase. Finally we reached the bottom and Clifton took the lead to bring us to a hawker centre where his friend recommended a Yong Tau Hoo shop. But by the time we reached the place, there wasn't much food left, therefore he took us to another place near Tiong Bahru Plaza. It was also Yong Tau Hoo. Shiokz! Eat until we all couldn't move. Partly because we were freaking tired too. Then Clifton brought us to the condo just beside the Yong Tau Hoo shop, which he actually had access to it because his cousin stays there. We then rested amongst the chairs next to the swimming pool amidst the gentle breeze of the night. Awesome.

We rested for about 2 hours before going all the way back to ECP. Had McDonald's breakfast. Shiokz! And then it was back to the Family Corner bike shop for Jacenta to return her bike. We then cycled back home, relieved that the journey has finally ended. Went into concussion from 10+ to 5pm lol.
