All night ride

bike rest. Originally uploaded by hermitblog.

"Hermit" in Singapore writes about his all night, 60 mile ride around the island of Singapore. They started at 8 p.m. and finished their trip at 4 a.m. In this photo, nine bikes are leaned on the curb at the edge of the road while Hermit and his buddies take a break.

Hermit tells me that nighttime recreational riding is popular in Singapore. Cyclists avoid the daytime traffic and tropical heat by riding at night.

Hermit's blog has ride descriptions and photos from his bike rides around Singapore.
