Let's face it - anytime is a good time to get outside, move your body, breath the free air or hit the ground running, literally. But many prefer to bike ride to a walk or run with the wind in your hair and pedalling up a bit more speed than on foot.How about a 20 kilometres adrenaline rush getting you closer to nature, or possibly a straight forward 10 kilometre wildlife, pristine nature and rural life experience.
Then there's always the popular Eastern Coastal Route leading you to Bedok Jetty and end up at the serene Changi Beach Park. Some excellent choices for the rider in you. Enjoy! Image Credit: RedBull, On The Ride at Ketam Mountain Bike Park
