The Tampines - Siglap Park Connector, a 10 km coast-to-coast route from Pasir Ris Park to East Coast Park was conquered on Sat. Cycled through eastern Singaore via Sun Plaza Park, Tampines Town Centre, Bedok Reservior Park, Kembangan, Telok Kurau estates and reached ECP finally!
Yes, these 3 ladies without proper cycling gears (slippers, mobile music, cap) did met obstacles along the way, not big ones but enough to add some challenges to our cycling journey. Rain started to pour when we reached Tampines Town Centre. we decided to settle our lunch @ S11 while waiting for the rain to stop. We sort of got lost in Bedok North Rd where we couldn't find the Siglap PCN. After some detour, we managed to find it eventually:)
From ECP, we had to worry for the return journey cos we are on rented bikes! We continued to cycle to Changi Beach Park. Passing through Changi Village, the route continued to Loyang PCN and phew we were finally on the way back to Pasir Ris Park! Small incident when we were somewhere near Loyang Point on the way back to the park. Owl's bike chain got stuck and the bike refused to move. XQ & myself walked to Loyang Point to search for a bike shop but in vain. Owl ended up in a cab to ferry her bike & herself back while we continued to cycle bck...
We had a sense of accomplishment. Everything ended well, and the three of us are still in one-piece despite some oil stains, some bruises & more sweat on us..hsh..let's hope for less muscle ache tmr:P
