Sometimes I think I may come across as being anti-car…errr…that’s not utterly true…if it were electric or hydrogen-powered exist in the market…I would really love to own one…hehehe, I’m not gonna feel bad drivin’ it eh?
There are conditions when I would rather not walk, ride a bike…like a Sunday ride with Zakk and Im to ”I wish I know”where…or for grocery shoppin’…I would hail a cab or may be those rm1 Rapids…people do it all the time…there's nothin' wrong with those iron coffins...but two cars in every single house...thats turnin' up the heat...mother earth is sweatin' like a pig now...
but I rode to Carrefour yesterday…just for a small amount of goods (I need my virgin olive oil and some parmesan…urgently) it was fun…I discovered lotsa new routes...yeah...salute to that
I think we’d all be better off livin' in societies where we wouldn’t need cars…imagine being able to march everywhere you need to go…livin’ close enough to the grocery store, clinics, work, the parks…that’s would be super nice…
oh com'on magnus...get real!

...always trust yer fuckin’ luck
The climate changes so quickly here in Kay Ell…the other day I had a chilly morning…which made for a lovely bike commutin’ and then yesterday and today the warmth moved in...It wasn’t a distasteful ride though…sometimes it feels good to have a weighty sweat going…to burn those extra fats
Then there were some wind gusts that felt stronger than the LRT passin’…so at times I felt like I needed to lesser my stance to cut through the wind better…since my ride isn’t built for speedin’ so I change the handlebar to downhill bar…so I can sit comfortably erect, which catches the most breeze (and Kombat keep “mengutuk” 'bout it)…Hey I'm the one who gonna kick those crank laa...as long I feel comfy I dont really care
I think I’m alrite…and think my Crumpler bags didn’t add any of resistance to windflaw...but yeah I score bit sweaty at my back
This morning I hit so many green lights…so I went through downtown faster than I usually do…like what I said to Kombat last night while ridin’ his Kancil…”don’t brag about those green lights la deyy…always trust yer fuckin’ luck”
Now its 5.20 pm…time to go home…and while driblin’ these keyboards…I heard the sky…cryin’ and screamin’ of thunders and rains…
yeah my fuckin’ luck!!!

the long and windin' road...?
Today is my eighth day of my “extensive” commutin' to work...alrite…yesterday was no bike day…one lazy Sunday from morning to evenin’ glued to the telly and the kitchen…
yet nothin’ happened…my waist is still the same…my gut is also have the same “hilly” surface…my leg hurts and same goes with the butt…I’m literarily getting’ sick of my olio spaghetti “goreng” and those tailored coffee..
But I gain some new perception…as I kick the crank…my universe is expandin’ (I should have known that last week)…everythin’ is beautiful when you were cyclin’ with a good soundtrack singing in your ears…
Here my new route:
Pandah Indah to Pandan Jaya (through Pandan Indah LRT Station)
Pandan Jaya to Bulatan Kg. Pandan (through Cochrane st.)
Bulatan Kg. Pandan to Plaza Parade (through Pasar road)
Plaza Parade to Pudu Jail Junction
Pudu Jail Juctions to (down hill) to Puduraya (ohhh love this one)
Puduraya to Dayabumi the office….
Hah! all together only 11km man...and it’s less then 30 minutes
I must admit from Pandan Jaya to Bulatan Kg. Pandan was my most "unloveble" part…due to lotsa parents in their Iron Coffin sending their children to the school…dey!...use school bus laaa…within this road I’m a professional “car dodger”...hehe
And here’s my so called soundtrack played on my W850i mobile:
Marchin’ Bands of by Death Cab
Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol
A Letter to Elise by The Cure (are they comin’ to S’pore?)
Soul Meets Body by Death Cab
Someone to Love by Fountains of Wayne
Traffic and Whether by Fountains of Wayne
You Stole The Sun From My Heart by Manic Street Preachers
You’re Tender and Tired by Manic Street Preachers
Good Life by Weezer (reach my office before this song even finish)
Across The Sea by Weezer
Ahhh!...can wait to ride back home
cheers

Critically Massed...
Car dodgin'…yeap…it’s my morning ritual right now…the sky seem to be very friendly lately...
but damn! the city tempreture seems to be incresin’ rapidly…haiyaaa! to many cars now, loiterin’ in the city…madness!
we really need to organize the critical mass soon…I mean real soon!
