Went cycling (again) on Sunday evening.
Diamondback
Mounted and all ready to go
And not forgetting….We cycled around the beach for about 15 mins and I finally realised that the sunset that day was such a beautiful sight.
It felt pretty surreal and calm, as the park was pretty quiet and empty.
We continued to explore the area and after about 6km, we saw this restaurant which was restalled from an old building in the Changi Area. Changi is an area packed with history with old and abandoned buildings.
This is pretty nice place to chill out.
5 Minutes Break
Across the road is this empty old building which used to be a hospital. It was bulit in 1935 and was commissioned and named the Royal Air Force (RAF) Hospital. During the World War 2, this compound was occupied by the Japanese Troops and believed to be used as a Torture Chamber. It continued to be a hospital used by the military after the war ended and ceased operations in 1997.Today, we called The Old Changi Hospital. It is believed that this is one of the most haunted locations in Singapore. The buildings were said to be haunted by victims of the Japanese occupation. There are rumours saying that screams and shadows could be seen and heard. Many people nowadays like to give themselves a little scare and explore the area at night in total darkness. In my case, taking a peep from the opposite already freaked me out.
Alright, after a little "chilly" feeling, me and my friend decided that we need a little snack to give us a little more energy and we found this little cafe selling some really good chocolate desserts.
We decided to go for this.
That's all for today, and I promised some fit pics tomorrow!!
BYE!

Today, my friends and I decided to head to TSS/OGL a trip. Met my friend at Haji Lane which is about 2 streets away from TSS and is said to the narrowest lane which anyone could drive in this country.
This is also one of the streets in Singapore with a very rich street culture. There are shop houses selling clothes of all sorts, and I would say they are mainly street wear brands and clothes all the ladies. There are also a few cafes around.
Time for some proper fit pics.

White’s
My friend is in Left Field Duck and White’s Boots in Black CxlWe took a 5 minutes walk to TSS from Haji Lane, and had to pass by Arab Street/Bussorah Street, which are packed with eateries and cafes. This is a really lovely place to chill out and is filled with strong heritage. I believe this is also one of reasons why the TSS crew love this area.

And finally we arrive at TSS/OGL. We went straight up to the upper floor where OGL is.
This is where the OGL craftmen get the hands on and dirty.
Their personal collection of jeans. I highly suspect most of them belong to Johhny and James.
I saw this suspicious box lying, and could only open it up to check it out.
Leather swatches from Horween! Damn, I really love the leathers feel.

Went cycling on Saturday with the same group of friends again. This time we decided to cycle around the city area,
and I decided to take a couple of shots to show you guys the most beautiful part of Singapore.However, my photos don’t really do justice to the real place.
Recently, got a saddle bag from Topeak to put my phone, some cash and stuff. Really love the size and how the
colours match my bike.
Lunch before we move off.
My girl’s noodle with lots of chili.
Our starting point. East Coast Park
We cycled along a Park connector along Kallang River.
That building with a weird pointed top is the Singapore Indoor Stadium where most major concerts take place.
I’ve been in there a few times, and I can safely say that the interior is pretty good with superb sound system.
Behind the Indoor Stadium is the new Singapore’s National Stadium which is still in the making. The old stadium
was demolished in 2011 to make way for the new one. I’m glad that I’m one of the lucky ones who had performed
in the old national stadium.I’m looking forward to the opening of this stadium in 2014, and i heard that the new structure would have a
retractable roof. How cool is that?!!
Some boaters along the way. That bridge is actually the East Coast Parkway (ECP) expressway on the top.
Finally, we could see the Gardens by the Bay (the 2 weird rock looking thingy) which features 2 indoor air
conditioned conversatories. The weirdly shaped trees are actually “Supertrees” which are said to be able to
harness solar energy to power parts of the Garden. You could also see the Marina Bay Sands, the Singapore
Flyer, and some skyscrapers in the Central Business District (CBD).
Really love the scenery.
Marina Bay Sands in another angle.We, then, cycled another 8km or so to the Singapore Botanic Gardens to have a good dinner before moving
off again. We happened to chance upon this really nice and cool (air-conditioned) restaurant to take a break.
Great to find a place that serves “All-Day-Breakfast” which is increasingly popular in Singapore.
My girl’s sunny side up with some hash browns and garlic mushroom.We headed back to East Coast Park after an hour of rest and managed to clock a total of 35km. Pretty surprised
that I didn’t feel really tired even though the sun was really burning the whole day. Other than a little of burn
on my arm, I’m ready to go for another 10-20km! Enjoyed the slow ride with my friends on a perfect Saturday afternoon.
