Bye bye old Queens town Cinema

Gone  Photo Credits by Ramesh Williams
Earlier this year we went there... to get lost 
This was where I spend my "poly days" and it is gone. Goodbye my friend and we will always remember you. Also glad I had a chance to share this place with lovecyclingsg folks. No, it is not a historical significant for the county but it remains a special place in my heart.
If I may suggest. Please go out and look at the places you grew up. Better still bring your kids, share with them how things used to be and not just air conditioned shopping centers, Ipad games. So they are also able to see another part of the Singapore landscape.

Getting lost @ Queentown 24th Feb 2013

I studied at Temasek Polytechnic Stirling Road Campus. That was in 93 and about 2 years back I revisited with Francis and afew of my friends. Today, I went back again with new friends. Many places were gone.
The hawker centre @ Margaret drive. Gone. The old hdb beside Queenstown MRT. Gone. 
Still it was quite a nice ride with a twist. No plans, just roam and get "lost". Literally. Like how it was when we all started back in 2010.
We saw many places which I never went and even had a MTB moment. All around Queentown area. A quiet neighbour hood in Singapore. Try it one day... get on a bike and get lost :) Do it quick because these places will not be the same very soon.
More photos of the fun fun ride we did today

Old estate. Watch out for Elderly People. Well done! 
Alex with his Rolleiflex... wow. Been a long time since I see one working!

Quiet walkways
Times stand still. This feels like 1980s

Carry your bike!
