Back in Drak, Dec 2012

CMWS-- Chiang Mai Withdrawal Syndrome... that's how we were describing it. Back in SG after Nov trip, all's wet and trails ridden flat, I had another "off the saddle" episode till last week. Guess the rest must have felt the same so we decided to head over to Stewart's place again.

Sure started off miserable as the rain splatter came before we even got off the ferry but Stewart was already describing all the new stuff he and his crew has been up to in the last few months....


Sure enough after the "default 10 kliks of ass-to saddle pedal-&-pedal ... the fun begins...

But before that--stupid me with only 2 hrs of wink time before the ride was just doing everything wrong. Dumb mistakes and a well deserved spill. Good thing was wearing a full face. Else would probably have ended up with half a jaw less. 

Few other spills along the way. Nothing beats Try-&-Try Frankie though. But all was worth it with a Shot of the Day... just before another....    

Courtesy of yours truly's wonderful iPhone. 

But the shots and vids wouldn't have been possible if it aint for the sacrificing "camera-crew"

Short compilation of us at one of the newer feature, nicknamed Monster...

Guess its like drugs but thankfully it's just hooked on the pedal and not some psychedelic stuff... still a fix just gets shorter and shorter. Can't wait to get back again..
