In-camp training

Dear folks, I'll be serving my call of duty with the band of brothers from FDS at PLAB from 12th March to 3rd April 2007. However, I am still ontactable with civilisation itself. Hehe. This will be ICT #3. #4 coming up in September 2007! Whoa. On a sad note, I failed my IPPT (new window).

Chin-ups: 7
Shuttle run: 10.6 secs
SBJ: 212cm
Situps: 39
2.4KM run: 12:44 min

Result: FAIL

So damn demoralised. I never failed 2.4km run before in my entire life, after entering the army that is. Anyways, I think I cannot do morning runs lah, feel damn lethargic. Or was it the fag I had just before the run? Or was it due to fact that I've become phaaaatt!?

Never mind, I've got a whole year ahead of me... no worry, be happy!

Return from Malacca/Port Dickson!

Wah, its been weeks since I came back from my bike trip. Didn't really have the chance to sit down and blog about it. I'm damn busy man now lah... hahaha!

I left behind my baby in SG to go on this trip, she was naturally concerned about me and we paid a visit to the famous "see-bay-loh" guanyin temple the day before. Appreciate her thoughtfulness but riding has become a hobby of mine, and it's almost near impossible to give it up. Both of us have to compromise on this, I guess.

The trip was incident free, save for one. The notorious malaysian traffic police and their less than honourable reputation for taking money from us poor singaporeans who are only out to have a little adventure ride in their country.

We settled it the usual way, and quickly brushed aside the unhappy incident and proceed to our destination and exploration of the quaint town of port dickson. Looks pretty run down to me, sea-sides aren't that fantastic either. We then headed south to Malacca on Tim's trusty GPS. It was almost evening time when we reached. And then we proceed to have the famous chicken rice balls. Nothing much to shout about either, and price was OK. Wish I could have stayed longer to hang around the night market, which seems to hold quite a fair bit of knick-knacks, and it only happens on friday and weekend nights. Oh well, there's always a next time!

Malacca trip 3rd March 2007

Yippee! I'll be going on my 2nd trip to Malaysia on my trusty Super 4 Bold'Or this coming saturday. It will be more of a challenge compared to the trip to JB last year - which means fatigue will set in at some point given the long distance involved (592km, according to what my fellow biker had calculated using his GPS). Not to mention those aching fingers...

As usual, I will try to put up the pictures after I come back.

Awww... my baby's gonna miss me bad... hahaha! But I promise I'll make it up to you ok?

Like they always say, you can't put a good man (biker) down!

Here's looking at you, the eyes of a VFR800... *drools*

SOOOooooo tempting!!!!

Class 2 here I come!
