Exploring part of the Tampines Park Connector. Seems I wasn't the only cyclist out trying not to get killed by cars or trying not to mow down a couple of pedestrians along the way on this sunny Saturday morning. The ride was pleasant, the wind warm, and the connector slightly confusing at road intersections. One had to crane one's neck to peer across the intersection to locate the "PCN" initials on the ground, indicating the path of the connector. Somebody at NParks should look into better signage...or maybe this is all part of the grand scheme where you're supposed to find yourself (pleasantly) lost somewhere in the northern woods when you're actually headed out west...All in, it's a fun way to explore the nearby neighbourhood.

This section of the connector runs just under the "low hanging" MRT tracks. Kind of reminds me of Tokyo, when we ate at this little ramen shop right next to the train tracks. The accompanying noise of the passing train to our slurping up the ramen was surreal! Made it to Tampines Mall before I ran out of time, had to execute a U-turn, and head back home for a quick shower and change. Lunch with old friends calls!
