Can anyone suggest any nice place to go for cycling around Singapore?
There are a reasonable number of cyclists in Singapore - not as many per capita as in most large cities, but they're there. There are some off-road trails (can't remember the name of the park, but it's a large - relative to the size of Singapore - nature preserve with trails. Nothing too technical (no real hills) but still better than not riding.
The problem is that S'pore is a small island with a large population. They are trying to limit the number of cars on the road (through some fairly draconian taxation, but I suppose otherwise no one would be able to drive anywhere).
Is that you with the glasses Mark? Or are you the duck smashing the computer?
Actually, the computer smashed ME this weekend (had to get a new machine to get back to a reasonable level of productivity - still going through the file transfer hell). But that's me on the left - a kinda old photo I'm afraid. I'm not really vain about getting older - just too lazy to put up a new one. Maybe I can find a good racing photo and replace that one...
I haven't looked at your website in a while. When did you move to Florida?
The "hands-on" portion of the business is still in Florida - I'm in Arizona (where the riding is MUCH better than Florida). The beauty of the way I set up the business is that I can do my part from virtually anywhere.

You'll meet him soon enough, Maggie.
There's a *tremendous* force that draws NY/NJ "people of a certain aga" down to South Florida, (and an equally *tremendous* force pulling MI/OH/IL/IN people down to West coast Florida)....

Yo! Neil..
Are you talking about Snobirds???
That would be them.
IIRC correctly, from my Fort Myers days, they were known variously as "frogheads" (this was the view of their small-statured driving position), "Q-tips," or "Cataracts in Cadillacs."
My favorite bumper sticker from the day was, "When I get old, I'm gonna' move up North and drive *really slowly* in the left lane."

I dunno about that. My sister was from Chicago, same as me, and decided to retire in Az. She got tired of the wild weather, random thunderstorms, small but nasty tornadoes, and all that stuff that does happen if Florida. just at a warmer temperature. She now loves to explore and is on a road trip with a friend, but also loves air conditioning. She says 115 degrees F is not out of the ordinary, but she does try to get out and bike when it is cool enough. 6:00 A.M. maybe when it is a cool 80 degrees?? Bill Baka Bill Baka
