Cycle & Scoot

Today has been a busy day.

Early in the morning, mom called me, said she leg pain. Wanted me to bring her to see doctor, as her medicine had just run out 2-3 days ago.

Needed to do our marketing today, so brought Zyan along to wet market, do our stuff, went home, then go pick mom to see the doctor.
The clinic is at Potong Pasir, opened from 8am to 12noon on Sat/Sun.

It was pretty crowded. All in all, it took about 1.5 hrs for travel as well as consultation and getting medication.

Supposed to go acupuncture for my own back problem. Didn't do that. Karinna went ahead to do some acupuncture for her legs though.
When I go back home, changed, and went to meet up with the most beautiful woman in the world, and we went for a baptism celebration of her ex-colleague's son.
It is at Serangoon CC, not too far from the place where I picked Karinna from the acupuncture appointment.

At the end of the celebration, we went to a bicycle shop in Ang Mo Kio.
Karinna had wanted to buy a bicycle, so we had looked a little around. We had been to Simei Eastpoint to check out the bicycle shop there too.
We're both not very into bikes, so we know nuts about bikes. Only recently read up a bit, and it appears that Raleigh might be the one for her as entry level.

She had a try at the shop area there. I tried as well, it feels more sturdy than another of the lady's bike there.
So we sticked to Raleigh.
One of the purpose is to go East Coast to cycle, with Zyan on his scooter (and perhaps his own bike in future).
Therefore, a Saris Bone2 rack is also purchased. :P
With that, of course added a rear light, and a bell and a lock.
That's probably all we need for now.

Got home, changed to a more sporty gear, and off we go to East Coast, for the maiden ride of the new toy.

The bike in its own form.

Unmounted the bike, and kept the rack. took out the scooter, then off we go.
One person on the bike, one person on the scooter, and one person on feet.
Simply guess who is on what. :P

Maiden ride on new bike.

Can't really do long today. It was already quite late when we were there.
It was about 7pm when we left East Coast, was already getting dark.

Zyan likes to go East Coast, so I think there will be more East Coast trips for the many weeks to come.
But, I need to solve my 'feet' problem soon. :D
