There's something about cycling that is different from running. Being slow is very apparent. Initially I just cycle for fitness....  I get overtaken by everyone, even slender female riders as they chitchat (those things are fit!).

So I ride more, to be faster. So I became faster, 35kmh on flats, match the girls, can follow angmo groups at stretches. Then I downloaded strava. Then I discovered KOM on strava.

Suddenly 30kmh seems snail pace. In a way its unhealthy by triggering your competitive impulse....obsessed with top speed, challenges, etc 😅

 

KOM is no joke..... 😅

Agree on being overtaken part.

Do it with a 100 dollar steel bar then talk lor.

Now entry level chin chai 10k, not includ mods.

The F brand quite popular, even lao auntie become pro rider. Force multiplier.

my personal preference is the C brand. 

My CAAD10 is less than 3k brand new.  Where got 10k?

Not everyone is able to ride top end.

I am waiting for the group ride restriction to be lifted so that i can go back to my regular Saturday morning Group Ride.

Previously, i only do 1 ride per week.  I ride with the last group (average speed 28km/h).

Do note that we have clarified with Sport SG and with regards to organised groups of up to 50, this only applies to exercise classes (e.g. yoga, taichi, qigong) that can be held in more open spaces e.g. HDB common spaces which were previously not allowed. Sport activities such as cycling are still capped at maximum of 5 a group.

IMHO.
This device could be illegal.   It is neither a bicycle nor a tricycle.  😀

“bicycle” means a vehicle that —
(a)    has 2 wheels held one behind the other in a frame;
(b)    is steered by handlebars attached to the front wheel;
(c)    has pedals; and
(d)    is built to be propelled solely by human power;

“tricycle” means a vehicle with 3 wheels that —
(a)    has pedals;
(b)    is built to be propelled solely by human power by use of those pedals; and
(c)    is constructed or adapted for the carriage of goods only;

this is the best. You get to enjoy the ride, enjoy the scenery, OTOT.  Good destresser.

Riding in group means mostly staring at the back wheel or butt of someone. No time for scenery.
