So.......The next Sunday we will ride in Punggol together with Ole Kassow from Denmark, and passengers in a special rickshaw that is made to transport the elderly. We will take it slow and make a few stops on the way, we may even take time to hear stories from the past and smell the flowers. We ride only on PCN and the ride is suitable for everyone, families and new riders will also enjoy it.
