  • Is the cycling community in Singapore open to a random guy tagging along? No friends? No problem. Today, I will find out if the cyclists here welcome me to draft behind them.

    I love the video. Myself I do not dare to ride my bike on the roads, I prefer park connectors as the infrastructure and the driving culture is not really bicycle friendly in Singapore. But in group it must be safer!

      It's safer and the experience is better to ride in a group. Try it one day!

      Hi, you can consider staying in the central area like Chinatown, Geylang, or the Eastern side of Singapore. You will do the round island in a counter clockwise direction. This is much preferred as you will find more rest stops towards the end of your ride and probably more cyclists to draft. Thanks for your comment!

    HI nice video. Question on the part 1:17, is it cruising speed 35-38kph? or 35-38kph Average Speed?

    • @delsonchong
      @delsonchong  Před 2 měsíci +1

      It should be the average speed. I vaguely remember my speedometer showing at least 38kmph along this short stretch. Strava calculates the average speed for the entire stretch, including the distance before and after the dam road section. Thanks for watching!

      There's some personal details there, maybe next time if I decided to post more cycling related videos. 🙏

      Luckily, those riders who I met are welcoming. I always thank them for allowing me to tag onto when we parted ways 😊

      Not really tbh I find them more friendly. What they don't like I find is if they pull and you dont

      @delsonchong  Před 2 měsíci

      I usually do the Eastern loop, including TMCR and back using the same route. I find the Eastern side of Singapore nicer to ride on hah. When with friends, we'd do half or full island.

    Please edit your video to not show riding groups with more than 10 riders. You know how car centric FB group like to use such videos to bash cyclists.

      There are a few cycling communities open to new members. You can check out MBG or KCC.
