Cyclists form up outside of Dover Park Hospice before the flag off at about 8:30 a.m.

More cyclists waiting to get onto the road.

End point at East Coast.

Sembawang Hot Spring

The well is no longer accessible.

There are three pumps around the well; this is the nearest and the water is said to be the hottest.

I think the top left picture means no washing of laundry, but I saw a lady doing just that.

Started at Woodlands MRT station at about 8:30am

Went behind Sports School. This stretch is quite steep.
Saw a beautiful Blue Pansy butterfly around the flowers next to the drinking fountain.

Ulu Sembawang. The initial stretch is tarred but gravelled further on.

Vertical gardeners at work in Yishun

Found some bicycle parks like this one under the MRT tracks.

The Chinese words say "Feeding of wild pigeon is prohibited" but type of bird is not mentioned in English.

Wonder which agency will be liable if someone is hurt by the fallen branches

Back at Woodlands MRT station 3 hours later.
