Kids Home Alone Sad

Hi 明天, please have a look at the main route and point to me other interesting places with a story to tell. Keep it within 100m so that I can plan in the detour. BTW, what is CCCPT?

Hello,
Gentle reminder, the route is difficult for children, esp those who are not confident with traffic. Parents, please take note. Err on the safe side, dont ride if u dont feel confident.

Sorry KS, hope Kian Ann is not too disappointed.
I've planned in some of the routes to actually go on pavements and pedestrian crossings instead. Perhaps do this ride to experience for yourself, there'll always be another ride when Kian Ann will be more proficient to join.

Hi Rezal,
Good to see u coming for ride! Have to highlight there'll be quite a few slopes and if you're taking the Trike, the climb may be tough...namely Mount Pleasant and Caldecott Hill. Alternatively, those not up to the climb can proceed along Joan Road to meet the rest at the foot hill Olive Road and Joan Road intersection. We can then proceed to MacRitchie. Another one is Toa Payoh Rise but thats short so can push if need to. We take it slow.
