Rent a bicycle scheme was an overwhelming success

I wonder will Singapore adopt such scheme in the future as Singapore edge towards 17 millions tourists and 6.5 millions populations, to alleviate the traffic congestion and pollution.

The secrets of how to ride a bicycle handfree and using only one leg in marathon

For a person who start to learn cycling, he got to fell down a few times before he can master riding a bike.After he master ride a bike he would like to do more difficult feats.

Of course the exhilaration master riding the bicycle is difficult to describe.

I was able to ride a bike hand free, with only one leg about 12 kilometres( around 45 minutes), navigating obstacles like a person riding a bike normally using two hands and two legs.


To master such amazing feats. I started by with doing simpler feats, like riding the bike hand free for hours rounds and rounds the basketball court, turning left and round and round turning right hand free, until I am well verse with it, and then using only one leg and hand free doing similar process and progress to the more difficult feats.

The type of bike use should be only one speed where they race indoor.

And practice until my hip able to control the direction of the bike using only one leg.

Thousands of Woodsvilles Secondary School & Primary school students seen me practice there every day for few years.

The foundation was laid, for me to be able to do such amazing feats.

In my youth before I went to school, everyday 365 days every morning at 4 am I got to cycle from Mattar Road to Sims Drive through and forth from my home in a tricycle carrying heavy loads of foods , putting his bike on top of the tricycle and his mother sitting behind to the hawker centre , then afterward rush to Upper Aljunied Technical school with my bike.

Because of these tough training, I able to do amazing feats with a bike.

Rain or shine even the tyre was flat, I needed to do it 365 days to support my family of 6 and also 4 nieces and nephew. My father had died when I was few years old.

After that I shifted to Sims Drive. Everyday after helping my stall. In the afternoon I went to train up to 4 hours in Woodsville Secondary School. These went on for a few years in hoping to be a world record holder.

And also because of my ability to maintain my bike in tiptop conditions. Which I had learn from a old bicycle repairman since when I was a few years old.

For some good causes

Nowadays it seem that there a lots of news about the freaky weather conditions. Heavy floods in lots of place. Is these the signs of times to come. Recent reports of more frequent serious floods is a wake up call for us to take a more serious look at these issues. Global warning might had caused it.
Could these be the industrialisation of China and India, imagine 2 billions people changed the habits suddenly and their impact on the environment.
More innovative ideas and inventions needed to harness and store the sun, wind, sea wave, waterfall power etc.More or better incentives and awards for these type of inventions.
In Europe they were putting more automated bicycles dispensing booth for people and tourists to rent bicycles, to reduce air pollutions and traffic congestion's.
These computerised bicycles booth, where people can borrow and return anywhere where there are a bicycle booth. It was a good idea.
More bicycle friendly conditions need to be created, to encourage the use of bicycles.
I got a call from the President of SBOR, they were willing to sponsor a bike for me to join a group cycling program. I went to search for a bicycle shop areas around my housing estates for more than 1 and the half hours, I can't even find a bicycle shop. The program were later called off.
The last time my tenant left a bicycle, when she left. I used it for a while, I cycled for a while and it had some problems, as I can't find a bicycle repair shop. So I got to stop cycling then.
More enlightening ideas needed to offset it, as it will have a serious implication on everyone of us in the future.
