Pedal Ubin! begins

Category : events

Pedal Ubin guides took on their first public guided introduction to nature and heritage on Pulau Ubin. Two groups rode out, one headed west first and the other headed north. Participants also learnt about cycling techniques and conquered climbing hills using their rented mountain bike gears. And of course, the very important braking techniques.

The volunteer guides have one or two meetings, five practical sessions and dry runs, two classroom sessions and hail from nature and cycling circles. It was a good session and more rides will be offered in months to come. To be kept informed, subscribe to the Habitatnews newsletter.
