This morning, I woke up as early as going to work to go Ubin for cycling.
Reasons why I would do this on a SUNDAY !
1. I've not seen / hung out with my friends eversince I moved to JB.
2. I've not been to Ubin for cycling
3. Fairuz is leaving for the U.S. next week.

Well, I thought it was going to be a leisure "Cycle in the park" kind of day. Was I wrong!!!
It started out ok, until I had to cycle up slopes and go down slopes on the bike. I havent done such strenuous exercise since maybe 4 years ago!! gosh! I could actually feel my thighs burning when I wanted to cycle up the slope.

If you've been to mcritchie reservoir for a hike (actually all Singapore kids would have been to mcritchie for their cross country run), the trail that is inside the jungle... its something like that!
It was kind of scary for me too, cause I was carrying a sling bag, which btw is a bad idea! and I didnt feel "one" with my bike. Maybe cause my legs are short! hahaha.

When I got home, my knees were SORE. super sore! like, everytime i sat and stood up... I had to wait awhile for the soreness/numbness to subside..... Well, at least now I know what to expect when cycling in Ubin.

But overall, despite the pain.. haha.. I totally enjoyed myself.
