Going Solo!

Well,

I have been asking myself lately about this question, " How come I can't seems to train with others?" Maybe I have been too focus and too busy trying to focus on training. I have been thinking about my days in Sabah. I love the experience. Going Solo in whatever I do and I am in total peace with myself.

I am not sure if it is a good or bad thing but for that period of time, things work and I have been improving. I guess, it works for me and being a soloist at heart helps me to focus. To be honest, I think training solo in Sabah and training with a group in Singapore is a totally different thing altogether.

Guess, if I do weight the effective ratio, I would say Solo helps. I am very much a loner I guess. I can beat companionship to a certain extend. I can stay focus when I am alone. So for the next few months, I would just train alone and see if I perform and have a breakthrough in my race result. Let just wait and see then!

Tomac Automatic and The Limar Helmet

If some of you think of switching to a full suspension. I would really say that Tomac Automatic. With the value and performance, it definitely outperforms all the other brands in the market place.

Of course, The Guys at Actionbods was really gracious and sponsored a Limar MTB helmet for the 100km Mountain Bike Marathon. That's really cool. Love the helmet a lot as it doesn't press on my temple. I have always an issue with helmet as it is impossible to get a good fit. Thanks Guys for the great Limar Helmet.

The Race Route

Tampines Mountain Bike Trail:

Million Dollar

How many of you out there have a secret dream that you want to be a millionaire. I do and I dare to say that the reality that being a millionaire is a lifelong pursue for me. Why? Because it definitely be better off rich than poor. So may say that this is Materialism but please remember this. With more money, comes greater responsibilities too. But with that responsibility comes opportunity for you to benefit others through philanthropy.

So?

Ridley Cobra Carbon MTB to Tomac Automatic

This is it. The picture of my new (ahemm...) not so new MTB rig. Of course, I have been toying the idea of getting the bike for a total makeover. Guess What! I have put this bike through the Sabah Adventure Challenge and it is one heck of a good bike, but guess I am overweight for it. I have gain quite a decent amount of weight and so of I went.





Wala, I got myself a Tomac Bike 09 Automatic Full Suspension XC Bike. 100mm Travel on the Front and Back. This is courtesy from the Guys from The Cyclogy. Thanks guys! And if you really like the sweet design of Tomac Bikes. The Cyclogy is probably the only place in Singapore to get them.
