as promised,i just came home frm the overnight cycling event all smelly,sticky,exhausted and brain-dead,and imma still blog abotu this event because i said i would in the previous post(i keep my end of any bargains 1 hor.... :P)
okok,the breakdown is:
i met up with michelle(cause shes in the same grp as me,and shes helping otu with the leadership roles also lor)...so reached YT and settled down and within a 2-3 hour time period,all the 200++ bikes came and here are a few shots which i took in my spare time:
the main banner for the overnight cycling...
this is when the bikes started coming in...
the bikes all parked according to groups...
the top view of all the bikes!!
it took us quite some time to get all of the bikes there,but it was eventually done la....phewwwww,and i know wat ur thinking:why do i have so much time to take pix right??
hahaha,well honestly these are the only few pix which i took for the whole event,cause the rest of the time i was either helping out with logistics or spending time with my group...
and now to my group, it consists of 26 ppl,including the ICs'. my OIC was Guo Quan,Michelle,myself,and our group's first-aider Yue Ying......and it was really fortunate that michelle's sis was sui-sui in our group la....hahahha,she was so happy lor.....and i got to know ANOTHER Jonathan again...tat makes 2 Jonathans' in 2 weeks...hahahhaha,so anyways we all had a bit of a boring start with the ice-breakers because every1 was all conservative lor...but slowly ppl started to open up,and we slowly got to know each other more la....then we had to come up with a team cheer,so ours wasn't too bad la,i can honestly say tat.....
so we all had team bonding stuff till 9pm++ then we all got ready,mounted the bikes,did a final equipment check,and then it was off!!! honestly speaking,the starting of the cycling was kinda shaky,cause in about 10 mins,the group in front of us had 2 laggers,1 of them had his bag strap entangled with the bike seat,another gal couldn't cycle well,cause she didnt really know how to change gears properly....so 3/4 of my group went ahead of her,and the remaning of us had to cycke behind her....my position was the last man of the whole group lor....so i had to make sure no1 was cycling behind me....
so along the way a lot of bicycle probs arose and we had to keep making quite a few stops along the way la...it was kinda tiring to stop and go for about a dozen times or so lor..... T_T....the half way point was Bishan Park,and we reached there at about 12.30am,then every1 had to rest,cause it was extremely tiring,and i mean EXTREMELY.....all the guys had groin strain and pain la...i mean who wouldn't....hahahhahaha,so when we all sat down,every1 was like: ahhhhhhhh,so shiok....
hahahhah,it was really funny to see how the younger students reacted......so after about an hour's rest,we all headed out again....this time all the way to Pasir Ris Park,and it took us a total of 5 hrs to get frm Sembawang to Pasir Ris.....it was way ahead of time when we reached there la....so we all rested and i just sat down and slowly fell asleep....b-fast was served at 5.30am and we all ate up and rested even more,i just took a spot on the pavement and jjst laid down and sleep...anyways every1 was doing tat la....oh well...then the buses came to bring us back and we found out that one of the participants lost his HP....SE 810i, I think.....so we had to search every singel gal and guy for tat phone lor...but no use la...every1 was all tired and sleepy,i wasn't expecting the hp to be found lor.....haish.....sad case la....
so ya,weeks of preperation just for this weekend cycling trip and it was well worth it la....made new frens and realised tat cycling at such a time was so insane and tiring...zzzzzzzzzzzzzz...
hahahha,so yea,tas it i guess,imma go get ready to go church and i have not slept for 24 hrs liao,and i dont think i will be sleeping for another 12 hrs....so 36 hrs in total....muahahahahha,i will surely sleep about 10 hrs when i get home later bah....lolx.....
aights,chat with u peeps soon!! =)
