Northern Star Sembawang ride

Northern Star is a cycling group spun out of Lovecyclingsg. They are folks who stay mainly in the Northern part of Singapore.We are talking about places like Woodlands, Sembawang and Yishun. Led ably by Thomas Tan and with his friends, the group consist of all age and sizes just like lovecyclingsg.  Last Sunday, Northern Star brought over 65 riders around Simpang Kiri PCN, visiting a very old Mosque and also the woodlands water front.
The route was mainly PCN and had lots of stop junctions which was  not a problem as they have split the folks into more manageable packs.
As we rode and felt the crisp morning air along Simpang Kiri, Urner (a first timer) and riding beside me exclaimed .... "so heng har!  I came.. otherwise I couldn't have know such beautiful place exist!"  Exactly the point we were trying to make. When you get out of your usual routine, visit another route you never took and take the time to slowly appreciate the environment.
It really made me very happy to see another cycling group offshoot, with the same ethos of Lovecyclingsg. Their motto is "Discover SG on wheels" . I like it and I like it alot!
So if you are staying around the north of Singapore and want to meet a group of fun loving folks. Pls do join Northern Star cycling group and you will surely have a good time!
