It took me and Benny 3 days before we could find suitable ones.
1st day - Rushed down to AMK after our work on Friday.
(have to apologize to my colleague Belinda who ask me out for hotpot a few days bfore, and after tons of dilly-dally, I still went out with bf instead. Shd slap myself in the face..where is my independence? *smack myself in the face*)We took a bus from AMK even..only to know upon reaching there that there are no bikes that are within our bike range..they only sell high-end ones...sigh...was so pissed.
Lesson: You should always check out if they have your budget range bfore heading down.
2nd day - Went down to IMM where Giant was, supposedly they have a good range of bikes. But no, most of their bikes belonged to a brand that had quite bad reviews online. Disappointed again.
3rd day - Went down to a bike shop at Sembawang, and finally! Now Benny and I are the proud owners of two pretty bicycles. Both are the same brand but his is a mountain bike while mine is a ladies bike. Both are in the $200+ range and are both paid by me..cos I am giving Benny the bicycle as his birthday pressie..so that's it.
NO restaurants, foodcourts all the way.
But I am quite looking forward to the cycling part!
We shall save on transport and the enviroment!
Just to share, I got a bad fall on my bicycle yesterday nite though..scraped my leg and a finger badly with bleeding. To top it off, the bicycle landed on top of me.
Yep, my first bicycle ride and I was more concerned about whether the bike had any scratches.
