Shredding: With Love

Went cycling with my <3 today and really enjoyed it. Though I'm unable to hit the trails now due to my injury, I'm still glad that I can go on a casual ride with my baby.

Our rides @ Punggol Riverside Walk

We went our usual route to Punggol riverside walk, crossing the bridge to Lorong Halus and to Pasir Ris. Had a few stops for rest and baby changed her pedals from some crappy ones to flats. Moreover, its in pink, hence I guess she's pretty stoked. Had  tea break at Mcdonalds after, then continued cycling towards Changi.

Something drastic happened on the way, baby crashed hard and bruised herself all over, the rear rim of her fixie was ruined. Had to patch her up and did some on spot maintenance to the bike. Nevertheless, we continued riding and visited the bike shop at Changi Village, which aligned the rim for her. The bike shop was pretty unique, though not distributing any major brands, they actually had 2 pretty cute cats hanging around in the shop. Now her fixie has free gear, which is in terms safer for herself as her feet is no longer bound by the fixed crank which affected her pedalling. We moved on and finally arrived at the beach!

Riding to the sunset
Sat at some benches and watched the air planes, sun set and view. Was able to see Pulau Tekong from there, hence bringing back lots of memory regarding the days of my National Service (in Singapore, male citizens have to serve 2 years National Service as conscripted soldiers).  Headed back and had a sumptuous dinner at Changi Village (Buffet BBQ & Steamboat). After, we headed back home, and the return trip was definitely less dramatic and faster.

That'll be all for the day, sorry for the lovey-dovey post. Not an epic shredding experience, but wells I enjoyed it. It's just fun doing things you like with your love ones.
