Cycling

decided to go cycling jus now even though it has been raining the whole day... i know de ground would be wet, i know its gonna be slippery... but heck i still go...

its still drizzling very lightly when im on de road... my 1st near miss came when i was nearing de junction... normally i would jus bank down to de left and cut straight out, but when i did tat jus now, my rear tyre caught de drain cover causing it to lose friction, i skidded...

maybe im too used to and crash and roll... (u don crash and burn on a bicycle) when i skidded, i still remain composed and nudge de damn bicycle back on to de track...

then i tell myself tat i must watch out for drain covers... was doing fine until i hit de zebra crossing... this time i bank left again, and as god would have it, i skidded again... >.<

my rear tyre caught de white stripes on de road...

i almost crash into the traffic lights, then almost shot on to the road with de oncoming traffic flying ard like some crazy maniacs... thankfully de brakes were well maintained and they work pretty good.. stopping me jus right at de edge of de kerb...

so i tell myself again, no drain covers, no white strips, go slow and go damn slow while turning...

so i happily cycle and was trying to make myself go deaf with loud blaring music, courtesy from my W960i and its bluetooth headset.

all was going well until i hit defu lane... it was all de way down slope... i let my guard down and started going at full speed. when i was reaching de zebra crossing, i tried to slow down...

bad move... de damn tyre caught another drain cover. instinct kicked in and i jam de rear brakes while trying to bank to de left... so i wont fly out of the path...

burned quite a bit of rubber, left quite a long trail... and i don know is it luck or de one on top is trying to mock me... i stop jus right in front of de zebra crossing...

and de best thing of all, de phone was playing Crash and Burn from Salvage Garden...

so i decided to be more careful, added another point to my checklist... No speeding...

so yea... with these 3 points in my small puny brain which is plagued by STM, i managed to reach ECP safely...

cycle one rd and then decided to cycle back home...

maybe i shld put spikes on my tires when i cycle on wet surface next time... >.<
