The Prata Spin

I was tempted to take a day off riding but the invitation to a short breakfast ride was too hard to resist. I found myself eating a bowl of glutinous rice before heading out to meet Kah Kiong at 9.15am at the Kranji MRT station.

We proceeded to meet Siang Jun at the junction of Woodlands Road and Mandai Road, after which it was the rolling “hills”  of Mandai before breakfast at The Prata Place. After a chat over breakfast, we continued to Upper Pierce Reservoir to chill before making another stop at the Lower Pierce Reservoir. The others got a good chance to put their hybrids through a short dirt trail. Cyclo-cross, anyone?

It felt great just to be able to ride slowly, take in the fresh air and admire nature. These days, I have been pushing hard both on-road and off-road and today’s ride was a real relief from my usual pace =)

Total distance: 41km
Money spent: $3
Participants: LSH, Kah Kiong, Siang Jun
