Last Night's cycling trip was definitely an eventful one. I mean 'eventful'. First time organizing a big group night cycling trip. Thanks to Simon, I got a chance to interact with my CHR/BB juniors. Way way my juniors.
The plan was to start at 10pm, cycling from woodlands to punggol and ending latest at 2am. But apparently with a wonderful night of tubes bursting, not once but twice, chains coming out, and bicycles that just weren't able to go as fast as road bikes, we had to cut our journey short, ending at jalan kayu with supper and then back to woodlands. It was 4am when I got home after escorting the young ones back.
Definitely not what I was expecting for a long distance trip, having to make several u-turns ensuring that the everyone was ok. But I guess, it was still my obligation, my instinct, to make sure my juniors were all fine. Though I always wanted to race off as fast as I could, I always made sure I turn back after making sure the front ones were doing well.
The trip didn't turn out the way I wanted it to be, but God definitely taught me much. Learning to be patient, and more important to be a big brother, looking after the younger ones.
The next trip will not be for the faint hearted. wahahaha. I'm loving this!
