LCSG supporting Geylang Serai CC to launch Passion Cycling Club to promote cycling in the neighborhood
Great happy people, wonderful weather and an awesome ride marked the launch of PAssion Cycling Club by Geylang Serai Community Club this morning. Thanks to the tireless effort of my friend Fabian Foo and the PA team from the CC including Ruby Wee and Wei Chung. I am grateful to the many supporting staff, including many road marshals guiding the traffic to ensure the riders safety.
With the blessing and support of MP Fatimah Lateef, we hope to see more hardware & software to promote cycling in the neighborhood. After so many Sunday leisure rides, it becomes clear to me – cycling is a great way to connect people, across different age and different ethic groups. We have LCSG member coming from all parts of Singapore, joining the crazily early morning rides.
In addition to the ride, the riders had great fun trying out the different folding bikes provided by eWalker – thanks to Fu De and his team!
As Tai Woon said “We ride as a team, suffer as a team, eat as a team and finish as a team!” Today we have many veterans offer their help as Pandas (safe riders). Thanks to you all: Steven, Boo, Mary, David, Zack, Vince and Tai Woon. Tah Ching, Boon Chun are the photo and video man. Thanks also to Tiger and Tiffany, they helped to distribute the “flying color” safety tags to all the riders – total 86 pieces out!

At 7am, I met Encik Israwi on his DIY cargo-bike at Haig Road. Does he look like after two hours riding all the way from Woodland?
