#6 My Momoki bike (aka flying saucer)
was stolen during 11.30am to 1pm at SAFRA Yishun Bicycle Bay. I was playing tennis and parked my bike outside tennis court when 2 security guards asked to place it at the bicycle bay which I did. When I came down, the bicycle was gone. The lock was on my bicycle but I didnt bring my key. Its really sad but the fault lies with me not locking the bike so really too bad. This time you can say 2 bikes are stolen in 1 week (see bike #5).
This bike was bought in 2002 around April after I saved enough money after a few months working. The shop I went to was near the "drive-thru" macdonals near chongpang owned by a old chinese man and his son. The reason I orginally bought it was for my brother after losing his bike (see bike #3). It is a hardtail, zoom suspension, GT-like aluminum body, 21 speed, v-brakes. After riding the Aloeca bike, this bike usually feels like a fly saucer (like when takumi uses the Subraru WRZ). This bike has seen many areas of singapore including the north (woodlands), west (boonlay), east (eastcoast) and many other places. Its sad to see it part so soon.
#5 Aloeca Bike (aka my86 or the20)
About 3 years old while I bought it 2nd hand 3 years ago at the price of about $20 (orginal price when bought was about $700 ), it went thru modifications, adaptations, stress testing and proved to be the most convient and best companion for endurance training. This bike was bought in Bukit Panjang, after someone wanted to sell it on togoparts.com. It serves its purpose well ferrying me (and others) to and fro the mrt station, and other nearby destinations.
#4 Colourful Full-suspension Mountain bike.
This bike was also one of the cheapest deal I ever got. I paid about $150 for this full suspension bike but was stolen in less than 3 months at the Yishun MRT even though it was locked.
#3 Italian designed Rigid Bicycle
This bike was bought by my brother and delivered from Carrefour in the year 2000. In secondary 2 I cycled it to my friend’s house in woodlands. Parked and locked to the staircase outside his house, it was stolen when I wanted to return home.
#2 ??? Mountain Bike
The grey colour mountain bike with a bottle and passanger stand was my sister’s birthday present. I however use it to cycle to my school everyday. Walking then took 15mins, and cycling took me 10mins. I never parked it in school because of sabotage but rather outside under the hdb flats nearby. The route I took to school was up the hill, then down the hill jumping over a small ramp on the way down. On many days, the ground is wet due to rain or dew but I seem to enjoy the splash of water and mud on the way down. Some days I would mend the “ramp” giving me more air time on the way down. One one day I tried to make a really high jump, I went into an endo, the bike hit its front wheel rather hard, both me and the bike went summersault and tumbling down the hill. After my stars cleared from my head, I found up that the bicycle’s front fork is badly bent and dented that it had to be thrown away.
#1 Kiddy BMX Was my brother’s 4 wheel kid’s bike. Modified for us to learn 2 wheels, and then abused by me to learn stunts. The pedal broken while I attempt to do a wheelie one. Time to say bye-bye to it.
