1st bike trip with THE bike

 

Decided to be a good citizen for the most part of the time, and followed nearly all the rules along the road. Although my reflexes are still slow till the point that I saw a car coming and I SLOWED DOWN instead of hurried across the road, there were no major hiccups.  

Took a shortcut cutting into the park connector halfway to go to Pasir Ris park and for the first time appreciated the fact that I live so near to Pasir Ris that I can go to the park, circle 2/3 of the park, and be back home (stopping loads on the way) in 1.5 hours! It was quite shiok to cycle as and when I wanted and be under the sun but (un)fortunately the Vit D I gained was not enough to do any damage. 

The bike was.. comfortable. The gears and everything, being new, was very smooth. The handle was not so, however, even though the brother assured me that he got used to it by the second time. I wish there was a bell and a basket though! 

Nevertheless, I am sure I will spend more time exploring the other connectors now that I have a bike at home! Anyone with bikes (live in Tampines or at least the east part!!) wanna go cycling someday????
