Safe Cycling day 2011!

 

DR once again showed our support for the OCBC safe cycling campaign by throw away our jerseys on 17 Dec 2011.

That day, everyone put on the free safe cycling 1.5m matters jersey from OCBC.

Thank you OCBC!!

We will definitely be there for the OCBC race as well

Cameron trip 2011!

DR went to Cameron Highlands and Fraser hill!

And this time, with 16 riders!!

We rode 80km up Cameron, only 10km down Cameron due to bad weather, followed by a 3rd day of down and up fraser hill..

“Smuggling” bikes across the causeway

Operation causeway successful!

Awesome dinner eating Ipoh hor fun!

Super tim sum at FUO SAN!

Group pics before moving off…

Climbing…

Climbing…

And more climbing!!!

Nice ride DRs!

We even climbed the rock in Cameron!

Ride down Cameron was stopped by rain and fog!

We could not even see 30m beyond us! Epic weather..

Ultra runner Alvin broke is stem.. and while fixing, we found white power (sweat crystals) inside..

Even pro mechanic Steven is disgusted :P

Randy kenna whack for wearing other group riding jerseys for not 1, not just 2, but ALL 3 days!

Video of DR in action at Cameron!

It was a great trip, with lots of delicious food, with great company..

For this time, we chose to have one 1 bus support vehicle..

Thanks God, for Denny’s parent who went along, and become the all time no 1 support crew..

Both of them were driving up and down, providing the group with the greatly needed isotonic drinks..

*A great big thank you to you both!!*

Next time, we will plan to have a 2nd vehicle for water support..

For the next one, hopefully can get hit more than 20

Alvin the ultra runner..

Last week, Alvin, aka Po, aka short took part in the sundown ultra marathon race.

And of course DR was there to support him and to provide him with water.

Alvin did us proud by finishing 100km in almost 12.5hr..

After MIA for nearly 6months preparing for this run.. its time to be back on the bike again..

ALVIN! u better ride every week from now on!!! 

It will be a long night…

But Alvin is READY!!

Support vehicle + HQ

Sleep cannot wait…

After a grueling 12+ hrs.. if finally over! (now the supporters can sleep..)

Alvin still full of energy after 100km.. should have asked him to run home from there

DR support team (-minus Mano, Henry, Jon and Kevin)

 

 

BBQ 2011

How says DR is all ride but no play?

Maybe we are playing too much and <ahem> not riding enough

Thanks to Sir Jimi, we had our BBQ last week.. with PLENTY of delicious food!!

Sir Jimi sacrificed his Monday,Thurday and Friday preparing the great feast which was fit for a king..

Drinks were abit late and alcohol was plenty.. but riders dun really drink that much..

So next time maybe more drinks? We are thirsty people..

Sir Jimi and Lady Lilian.. The 2 stars of the evening..

They were cooking, cooking.. and COOOKING!!!!

The BBQ pit that looks like some legendary furnace for a wuxia show.. no wonder the food tastes so good!

Home-made Mee Siam by Jimi (who says guys can’t cook? The gents at DR are fantastic cooks )

Perfectly BBQed, with a golden crisp…

The OMG it taste so good satay..

Asparagus wrapped bacon.. Looks good, tastes great!

The air flown (never frozen) prawns!

The legendary otah…

The rest of the food? (we were too busy eating.. sorry no pics..)

Miss photographer.. always with a camera..

MC is so hungry, food was all over his cheek…

“Serious” discussions..  (Maybe wat bike to buy..)

Kenny is one happy man!

The guys…

The gals…

Once again thank you Sir Jimi for being such a great host..

The evening was FANTASTIC!

Too bad it rained the next morning.. And we could not burn off the calories we eat that day..

OCBC 2011

DR showed their support this year by entering the OCBC 2011 again this yr..

Overall this yr, it was better organised and starting slightly later than last yr was better decision..

At least we can see where we were riding this time..

After the race was a well deserved breakfast at PS CAFE!

tok about dining in style

Congrates to one of our newer riders Denny who rode a fold-able bike..

He is officially the 2nd fastest foldie in OCBC this yr!

Maybe next yr he can get first

Making our way to the starting point..

Mr FAST FOLDIE: DENNY!!

MC is very thirsty…

Well done.. DRs

Boss Kyne is very hungry, as usual

 

Her World article “Pedal pushers!!”

DR has been featured in the recent copy of her world magazine..

THANK YOU HER WORLD!!

Come join us and to be part of this awesome pedaling experience..

Dun be afraid the you are a newbie on the road, cuz everyone has to start somewhere..

(And with Boss/ Monster Coach Kyne, eating the wind for you, you will be amazed how fast you can travel!!)

DR CYN dinner 2011

As part of the DR CNY tradition, we spend an evening together during CYN for dinner at LiBai resturant.

It was a day most of us remembered as the “worst traffic jammed in SG day”.

Dinner was supposed to be a 7pm, but most of us arrived at 8pm!!

The few of them who traveled by AYE were crawling on the expressways at 10km/hr!

One of those days when traveling by bike is faster than traveling by car >.<

The early table

The super late table

The 鱼生 !!

The civilized..

The uncivilized!!

HAPPY CNY everyone
