Night Cycling!!!

All right all right, it all started out as a yearning for a better new year celebration, it turned out into a blast!!! After meeting darren and his friends (they kickass by the way, bought satay and beer and just shared it without saying a word) with my brother at ECP, we discussed what we could do for the night.

It was on IRC, when guoqiang said he wanted to cycle, and it was set. Darren was a anything guy, I certainly didn't mind, my brother hasn't cycled for a while, we instantly had a convoy of 4!

But that wasn't all, I couldn't possibly leave the rest behind, those who made the last trip a success also namely, Jeremy, Marvin, Mervin, Gabriel, and they all turned up. But lo and behond, the person that totally surprised me was Zhenjie when he agreed to join us! Marvin had a sprained ankle but hesistated at first, but he knew he couldn't miss out on the fun and decided to brave it. We all set to meet at 8:15 at ECP to rent the nessecary equipment, namely the bikes itself. After renting the bikes, it was a short trip down to Traffic Light where we had a whoopass dinner and settled down to talk cock all night. When it struck 11, we all set off alas without Zhenjie; he was uncontactable!

Marvin had to come over to my place to change to a better pair of shorts while Zhenjie was still uncontactable. We decided to leave without him and carried on to Esplanade without him. On the way, my phone rang and there he was! It seemed that he had problems with his mother and he had a hard time getting away from her. Accepting his apology, me, Guoqiang and Jeremy decided to turn back to my house and wait for him.

When he arrived, we set off full speed for Kallang Airport Hawker Center to meet the rest of the convoy, all the while raining apologies for his latecoming. We didn't really mind, it wasn't his fault anyway.

Our first destination was Esplanade, as always. As we arrived there, the convoy broke in two, the faster ones in front, the slower ones at the rear. The faster ones caught sight of a buncha girls on the One fullerton bridge and decided to wait for us before doing anything else. Marvin and me decided to go after them and with my brother leading, the chase was on! We decided to go on an intercept course on where they were going and went straight for them.

Unfortunately, either they pulled a david copperfield on us, or we were really blind, we couldn't find them at all.

"Someone should have gone after them while the rest stayed behind" remarked Marvin. How true...

"Too bad" was all i could say and we decided to make a stopover at Peninsular Plaza for our supplies of sweets and drinks that would accompany us during the trip. Gabriel wanted to head down to Orchard to meet up with ed and des. Since we didn't really have a destination, we decided to go there to meet them. Zooming down orchard on your bike is certainly an experience and I really want to do it again.

"They're at Partyworld next to HMV" shouted Gabriel. And that was where we ended up to meet both Ed and Des. We had a short chat there. To be continued...
