Has it been a year already? Yup - we started the group born out of Togoparts postings over a year ago actually, and the group has grown into a close knit band of like minded roadies who ride together. From the first 'official' group ride to NEO TIEW , Saturday mornings have been the preserve and domain of our friendly fun rides that has brought us further afield to Changi ,Pasir Ris, Orchard Road , West Coast Road, Mount Faber and of course our own 'backyard' areas of Mandai, Seletar, Punggol and Sengkang.
We had a group road trip to Malaysia's Desaru last year with the Law Society of Spore; we shld see some members partake of the Tour De Bintan in Nov 2012; and we had the timely opportunity to do a team ride for the 2012 edition of the OCBC Cycle donning sponsored jerseys. A nice eventful first year!
The Ride of Silence this year in May was cancelled; but a few of us stilled donned sombre black/white colours and did a 'silent ' route as a mark of remembrance and observance of the movement.
Over to our anniversary, we will be doing Time Trials over a set distance and measure off our PB timings. Come one Sat morning in July, we will do a pursuit race (where the cyclsists are handicapped by their earlier posted PB timings and will start off in sequence of slowest rider first . So the fastest rider rides off last and the finish will be a combined finish line that has taken into consideration the handicapped speeds!) Sounds good?
Prizes are being planned (with Les Amis vouchers, CRC premiums etc) and we shld round off teh festivities with a BBQ at Springhill. We shall discuss this more in detail over the next few rides to get buy in and ideas :)
Ride safe; and RIDE it like YOU MEAN it!!
