Last Wednesday was National Day, instead of just staying at home lazing away, i'd decided to go for a spin. So the plan was to go to Upper Peirce reservoir park, i could still remember when i was a lot younger before my parents would bring me along to this reservoir park, however i don't seems to remember much. This place do really bring back memory.

The journey there for me as a beginner rider isn't easy, but i would say the route to this reservoir is good for those what to train their strength as there is a couple of up hills and here's the fun part for those who love the thrill of speed as also their down hills road are pretty high and long, i've always went at about 47km/h for down hill.

When reach, i was overwhelm with the green nature landscape. As i sat down on some bench, closing my eye i could almost felt the peace within this park. The air is rather fresh too. I'd already sat there for like about three hours, i just love the peace and scenery. On my way home. Passing through Bishan park one, i managed to capture this trial bikers doing what they do best, jumping onto and off any thing that is stable enough to hold their rides and the bikers themselves.

Oh Thursday, after all the trip from Wednesday's Upper Peirce reservoir park, i just had to go down to Lower Peirce reservoir park as well. When i finally reach my destination at Lower Peirce, also again i was delighted by it's remarkable landscape and not to mention the calmness of this reservoir.

After a ride to Lower Peirce reservoir park, i just felt like going for a long ride. I head down to Ang Mo Kio Town Garden West, this park is also a good location for up hill training or strength. This park is to very beautiful as well.

Endure!

Today, i do felt the adventure sprite in me. So from any normal routes just around my home, instead i went from Toa Payoh all the way to Changi Beach Park. To be exact, the distance is 31.20km. Now comes the hard part, as by now my enduring system is completely fried. However it's still rather an enjoyable ride.F

Finally home sweet home 60.71km, i have to tell you this, i am not ready for this kind of really long work out yet but i must not just give up hope, i can do it!
