@Tambre, I got from Matt, if we start at 0730, can complete by 1530. Yes, average speed will depend on traffic lights. maybe moving speed would be a better term... so let ur spirit and flesh come together as one... lol...

tambre wrote:: Speed wise is based on actual average speedometer readout ? 24 km/hr means you'll need to cycle at least 30km/hr consistently and let traffic lights pull your speed down. I'm in but probably max at 100 km..the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak. What's the expected total hours ?

Count me in as well. I will be riding a foldie. This will be my first 100k+. I bike commute to work. You can put me in the slowest-easy going group. The last ride I joined was the fort rd. to changi village with Francis as the organizer. Then continued riding with GL, Henry, Kimi from Changi-Punggol-Serangoon Road. then we split up. Thanks GL for the spare water! Looking forward to this ride.

Based on past experience. Start time 730am, the super fast roadie group can finish about 4 hours. Average can finish about 3.30pm. The slower group sld end latest by 5.30pm. Inclusive of rest stop. Any slower mean likely u kenna leg cramp liao!

BF NWT, 20 km/hr probably, i don't know 'cause i don't own a speedometer. Group me with Diane. She's the one who introduced me to lovecycling. I read your Kluang Ride blog, truly inspiring.

How about preparing finisher goodie bag for those who finish the whole route? It always good to have some motivation:)

@GL, No medals, no event tees. Just a long ride with friends and hopefully a friendship that will last a life time!
