Bikeabout

Bought a Aleoca Trizion with a Shimano 18 Speed shifter, Alloy rim and V brake today, and consequently rode twelve miles across Singapore guessing my way home. The public transit in Singapore is so comprehensive and taxis are relatively so inexpensive I was concerned I wasn’t going to see enough of Singapore block by block.

Bicycles are not allowed on public transit in Singapore, except for a contraption that comes across as uniquely Singaporean — the folding bicycle. I was not bold enough to buy one, besides having a bike that could be brought on the MRT or bus system would kind of side step my initial reason for a bicycle. Since I couldn’t carry my bicycle on public transit, I took the opportunity to ride the sucker home. Totally happy with the decision.
