Pulau Ubin Double Black Diamond
Last week was Singapore's 46th birthday. During last years celebrations I was fighting off pneumonia but somehow Kingsley and I still managed to go watch the parade and fireworks. This year we decided to do something fun, low key and away from the crowds. So we headed to Pulau Ubin a small island (which belongs to Singapore) off the east coast of Singapore.
You may remember that last time Kingsley and I visited Pulau Ubin we made the crazy mistake of renting a $2 tandem bike for the day. We went this time around with a clear understanding that everyone gets their own bike! There are lots of bike trails and mountain biking trails on the island and we wanted to check them out.
Kingsley and Ant decided to take on the double black diamond challenge which in my mind was crazy. Kim and I took the Blue square (AKA easy) route which was just right!
Our friends Kim and Ant joined us for the day.
Taking the $2.50 Sing dollar bumboat ride to the island.

Wow - that was SOME trail! Just a little harder than our short, gentle ones at Trilogy!! Think you took the right options Lynn - a bike on your own and the easier route!!
