nightride 3.
today me and ken decided to go makan again at arnd 12. when we reach our newfound prata shop,
we found it it was CLOSED. like WTH it's supposed to be 24hrs la! then later we realised, there's a small cardboard sign inside saying it closes at 12 midnight. like wth lah. Anyways, we settled our supper at 7-11 just beside the prata shop and then we rode to bukit panjang. actually Ken just wanted to check out the malaysian railway tracks but in the end we could not find a way inside. by the time we gave up, we were already so close to bukit panjang that we decided to ride on. We reached this block just beside Bukit Panjang plaza and ken decided to try this spot. it was just a semi circle open area and there was this semi circle platform he was trying to manual across. i took my camera out and realised that I LEFT MY MEMORY CARD IN THE CARD READER STILL ON THE COMPUTER! holy shit. luckily, the previous previous previous previous night i somehow dumped a spare memory card into my camera bag. anyways, after that scare i saw a signboard that says no skating. we started remembering our skating past together and thinking about how gay we were last time to skate. we used to go to GO SPORTS to skate and bukit batok HDB void deck and places, watch
skate videos, admire the likes of Bam Margera and Paul Rodriguez and Eric Koston, looking for cool and cooler skate shoes, condemning OSIRIS and
support Nike SB and Lakai and Adio and ES.. bla bla bla you get the idea. skating is gay. hell gay!
well i have some low quality pics taking with my handphone camera last time about half a year or more after we quit skateboarding. we just took our boards and see if we could Ollie still. Ken can still do his stuff( yea he was fucking pro last time). Ollie Nollie Kickflip bla bla. He didn't try the rails though, he could crooked grind, overcrook,
boardslide, frontside boardslide, smith grind, bla bla bla... here are some of the photos anyways taken last time last year.
(my ollies after quitting. not very consistant, but still quite high eh..)
(Kickflips, these were HELL NOT CONSISTENT... tried many many times..)
(ken ollieing over his bike from inside his house. damn he's still consistent. did it on 2nd try)
anyways, we paid our homage today towards skateboarding.
(ken was delighted he could ride at that area while skaters cant)
(hey! Skaters are COOL man!......... NOT!)
after that we straight away left this area and we rode on. we past the bukit panjang bus interchange, and i decided to go in... after midnight, Bukit panjang bus interchange has NO buses parked there at. so ken and
I decide to go act gay and take a photo. hur hur...
(wtf happen to the buses!? why only 2 ugly bikes here?!?!?!)
when we left, my bike gears started to feel really really cranky. i ignored and cycled on. We went past the LRT and ken wanted to go to the other side of the station to check out if there were any interesting things there. when i followed, the sound got worst! Finally i lost drive on my bike! i looked down and i found my ENTIRE freewheel at the back broken! there! my faithful painfully eyesoring green bike lie limp.
(broken freewheel. that shimano gear thing was supposed to be attached to the frame)
boy. after 7 years. oh boy. it has served me well and got me well... envious stares from my friends last time when i was P4 and only 140cm. you know last time when you were young..
the bigger your bike and more suspension it has, the better and COOLER you are! i was dishearten and concluded that as the distance was too far, we had to take a cab back. =( waste
money again =( i decided to take at least one last productive shot before heading home so i told
ken to do something. Ken's still in his Flaty mood and he wanted to try out bunnyhop to flaty, something he never tried before. He managed to pull it off after trying for about 5 mins! hurray! clap hands clap hands! here's the pic of it! enjoy!
