Last Sunday was the first time the Chummy-ship went out to cycle. Skinny Chum wanted to go cycling cos of some personal reason which I will not state here. Only the 3 of us shall guard the secret. *rolls eyes*
We didn't get much cycling done, though. It was a wet week and even before we reached Sentosa, it already started to rain. But since we haven't gone out together for a while and it is very seldom that Skinny Chum has a Sunday off. So I decided that we should go ahead with our plans.
So we went on our jolly way to Sentosa, rented a bike and set off. Less than 10 minutes after we set off, it started to pour. So we had to stop our cycling. Actually, throughout the whole day, it rained and stopped several times. We cycled a bit and headed off for dinner; but not before I scrapped my shin against a big rock and Funny Chum slipped and fell.

The Tour de Sentosa started on a dreary note as the weather did not hold up and heavy rain started to fall even before the race began.
Bad weather forced the committee to make the decision of temporarily stopping the race and participants took a break as they waited for the rain to let up.
Ample supplies were seen and the participants took the chance to replenish their fluid intake during the break.
Before long, the rain got lighter and the race continued, only to meet with another thunderstorm. Putting the safety of the participants first, the committee once again had to put a stop to the race.
At the second pit-stop, the participants took the chance to mingle around and appeared to be holding up well despite the foul weather. 
Only one of the participants look drained out due to her lack of stamina and less-than-desired physique. Maybe she should consider quitting smoking. A notice will be sent to her soon, hauling her in for a conversation before the panel of discipline committee.
Some of the supporters got tired and made use of the break to catch a forty wink before the race continued. And it is indeed creative that they have decided to use a roll of kitchen towels as a make-shift bolster. 
The race continued and at the third pit-stop, the committee decided that resources and time should not be wasted anymore and called the race to a final stop. 
Although disappointed at the cancellation of the race mid-way, the participants displayed good sportsmanship and went out for a heart meal together, putting aside their competitive streak.
Like the pot, the day came to a well-rounded end. Although fierce and fury during the race (like the left side of the pot), the participants were able to remain calm and friendly after the race (like the right side of the pot).
