Monthly Cycling to go on?

Hi Cycling Buddies

Our cycling leader, Yew Kwong is very preoccupied these days and Jade had MIA due to family obligations.  Our 2nd in command, Douglas cannot commit to a monthly schedule but he does not wish to see the monthly cycling die a natural death due to poor response. 

Hence, Ah Nee and I have been tasked with the duty to carry on.  However, sometime, some things might better off be done away with, rather than to continue.  We would like to seek your opinion or vote as to whether we should continue with this monthly cycling activity.  But first, here are some info / history for your consideration.  Cycling activity was first started in March 2006 led by Charles Wee.  There were only 4 of us : Charles, Yew Kwong, Jade & me.

No idea whether you can see the pictures or not.  Uhmmm……. Try clicking on the photo itself.?!

2nd cycling in April 2006 : There were still only 4 of us – Charles, Yew Kwong, Andrew Yeung and me.

3rd cycling in May 2006 : Yew Kwong took over the leading role from Charles.  There were 7 of us – Yew Kwong, Andrew, Jade, Pauline and me + 2 of my friends who were non SHCian.  Pauline was the one who shared with us her account no. with the rental bicycle kiosk which allow us to pay $4 for 1 hour and get 1 hour free and later, plus a bottle of mineral water.  (Today, the standard rate is $5 for 2 hrs – no water and no special privileges.)

4th cycling in June 2006 : There were – Yew Kwong, Andrew, Jade, Pauline and me + 2 of my friends (1 of whom became SHC member much later, guess who?)  Subsequent monthly cycling see changes in people combinations but the number grew.

The number of participants peak in Feb 2009 with 41 (all) SHC members and then the number starts to dwindle.  Reasons I can think of, for the decline :

1.       Non homogenous group – there are advance riders who branched off into “passion riders” doing long distance and in “rough / difficult” terrains including off-shore cycling.  They are into “challenging rides” as oppose to our leisure kind of cycling.

2.       Recent cycling events evolved from leisure cycling as a group, into 2 factions.  The long-distance cyclists and the mid-range cyclists.  This split encourages non-cohesion as a group as the 2 groups did not start nor end within the same time frame.  We didn’t even meet for a meal together at the end of the ride which used to be the norm.

3.       Since Jade no longer involved, beginners have no one to teach them.

4.       Constraint – we are restricted to limited localities due to rental bike facilities available.

5.       Location – as it is always the same locality, the novelty wears off and participants lose interest after a few tries.

6.       Venue – not easily accessible for non drivers.

Do you want us to continue with this Monthly Cycling Activity?  If yes, why?  And would you be willing to be one of our team mates?  Hope to hear from you.

CYCLING -TO NEW HEIGHTS

Good morning cycling kakis !

Due to commitements – I missed out the Penggarang cycling trip–this time I make sure I do not miss the Sept monthly group cycling- so I am submitting my name NOW even b/4 registration opens !!

Cycling had been in my blood – for 3 years of my secondary education in Malacca – I cycled daily about 4 kilometres rain / shine to school ( + of course cycled back home – no play cheat – lah by taking bus home !!!!)

Last month my son with his Deutche Bank Vietnamese collegue toured Hue / Hoi An ( Central Vietnam ) by the usual A/C van + a very unique bicycle riding tour exploring Hoi An (small town ) then was escorted cycling to a farm visit where they had some hands -on >herbal foot massage> learn simple Viet snacks cooking >then lunch in the farm with all the freshness vegees ! He had the Viet. tour agency which organises this 4D3N tour of Hoi Ann + Hue .

As I had been to North / South Viet. but not Central -I am thinking of organising the usual A/C bus tour + 3/4 day Hoi Ann town + farm visit cycling trip ! I had checked with the local Viet. tour – my calculations based on 8 persons group : with Silkair return flight 4D3N+ food + hotel stays -cost per adult is about SGD 800 . More persons go -less to pay — Silkair flight now is about SGD 460 – hope price do not go up !!!

I intend to go from 29 October ( Fri) >> return on 1 Nov ( Mon) OR 12 Nov (Fri ) to 15 Nov ( Mon) .  Silkair also flies there on Wed >> << Saturdays — I am free to go on these dates also!

Anyone interested ?? I shall go with min. 8 cyclists to bring the costs down !!! for those non -cyclist if have sufficient numbers I shall talk to the Viet. tour to provide A/C van transport all the way !

PENGARANG

It’s an area at the southeastern tip of Johor, to the south of Desaru. The name is usually used to cover the dock and immigration post at Pengarang, the village of Kampong Pengilih and the town of Sungai Rengit.

Going there by boat
Sungei Rengit is 17km from Tanjong Pengilih Ferry Terminal, the landing point where you arrive by ferry from Singapore.
Bumboats shuttle from Singapore’s Changi Point Ferry Terminal to Pengarang from 7am in the morning, first ferry service to 4pm in the afternoon, last ferry service. The journey takes about an hour and costs $9 per person, plus $2 for a bicycle.

Sightseeing
Pengarang was the site of a major WW2-era British coastal battery. The part of it at Pengilih, right next to the immigration point, is open to the public but in a state of nature, with no trails, signs, etc.
Chinese temples are quite common sight. There is one particular one which houses a large Goddess of Mercy guarding its entrance.
There is also an Ostrich Farm, one you don’t get to see in Singapore breeding about 300 ostriches. For a small price, you get to taste ostrich egg, satay, soup and meat.

Bicycle rental
Will rent them from bicycle shop at Changi Village @ S$10 for whole day. Helmets, good if u have your own otherwise will rent them at $?.

What to buy
Chinese pastries in are popular souvenirs. Many people are tempted to bring home in quantities.

Eating
Many popular Chinese restaurants serving delicious seafood offer mouth-watering signature dishes. There are also the nightly food stalls selling crunchy Ramly burgers, and irresistible char kuey teow.

Staying overnight
Hotels here may not be your best but are fine just for resting for the night. MYR30 per person on twin/triple sharing.
