The name is Khairul. Would do fine with Khai or Kerol [kay-roll] - with proper pronunciation that is.

May have caused a traumatic experience to the nurses who were there when I graced the world on the 14th of June, 21 years ago.

I reside at the great eastern side of Singapore. At an estate named after a water containment facility. Go figure!

A left-hander. However, I function more like a right. And sometimes left of course.

Owns a Class 3 driving licence.

Have been playing the saxophone for 8 years. Currently a Baritone Saxophonist in the Philharmonic Youth Winds.

Being and socialising with people occupy whatever free time I might have.

Boredom is sadly pathetic - would be just staring at my ceiling.

And recently, graduated from Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts where I pursued a diploma in Arts Management, majoring in Performing Arts.

KESIAN BOYZ™ GOES CYCLING
11:59 PM

Honestly, this was rather impromptu.

As usual, we would head out every Friday afternoon/evening to kill boredom. Our initial plan was to head down to Sim Lim. So, I decided to crash in at Fauzi's place to kill time since it was rather early. At his place, we were planning for our inaugural trip together; to Bangkok. We were so engrossed in looking up for hotels and places of interests that time flew so fast. The initial plan evolved. We decided to meet Wayne at City Hall. But before leaving his place, we eventually changed the plan to cycling.

I went home to get changed and proceeded to Izzat's place at Pasir Ris with Fauzi; to borrow his bicycle. So from there we started on our journey. I rather not type it all down, but I have prepared a map of the route we took.


Start: 6:30 pm
End: 11:20 pm
The cyclists: Hazizi, Wayne, Idham, Fauzi, Izzat and myself.

Some really funny thing happened while we were cycling. But no doubt it was tiring. It was more like army training than a normal "lets-cycle"; trust me on this.

  • Before approaching Opera Estate, there was this steep hill up. The cycle up was torturing. By the time we reached the top, everyone was exhausted. But the ride down the steep slope near Siglap was FUN (though my brakes were not working properly, I took the risk and enjoyed the speed)
  • Somewhere before crossing over to East Coast Park (ECP), Fauzi and myself were cycling on the road. Little did we know that we were cycling on the road out to the expressway! There were low barriers so we decided to carry our bikes over the barrier.
  • Before crossing over back from ECP to Bedok Road area, there wasn't any ramp down. Instead, it was all stairs! So, we have to carry our bikes down and back up again on the other side.
  • Before reaching Izzat's place, we had to push our bicycle up a hill twice but only because there's a down slope awaiting.

So tell me, apart from the long distance cycling, does this sound like army training to you? Hahaha!

Returned Izzat's bicycle. Fauzi and myself headed for home feeling all worn out. Overall, it was fun and tiring. I am sure we burnt a whole lot more calories than we think we did!

This sounds like it is going to be a weekly routine. How guys? Up for it? Haha!
Oh yes, the Mass Night Cycling on the first night of the chalet will be next!


That is all for now.
Ciao!
