NUS Riders Go Kart w/ NTU Riders

A go-kart outing at permas jaya, plentong was organized by the NTU riders. Meetup location was at Esso Woodlands Ave 1 at 10am, and a total of about 8-10 riders came for the ride. After liasing with the NTU riders at the petrol station, we made our way to the destination via Woodlands Checkpoint. The jam was about to start when we arrived, and luckily, it was not too long.


Upon topping up, we made our convoy to the gokart location. The road there was indeed filled with gravel and loose sand, coupled with many construction debri by the site. Pretty much a biker's nightmare. Unfortunately, Kaisheng from NTU, skidded at one of the junctions and we have to regroup again at another location. Luckily he got minor injuries and a broken mirror. Determined, we still carried on with the trip as planned.

Upon reaching there, we were greeted by 3,5km of offroad, with each of us going slower than normal, but its not as bad as I thought it would be. We then played for 1 round of 10 minutes and got an entire body massage from the vibrations of the go-kart. It was quite an adrenaline rush for the guys, whizzing through the circuit, trying to push for speed around the corners. It was indeed a new experience for most of the guys, having their sessions in a circuit.

Upon finishing the 10 minutes, the group was in a state of elation, each with their own stories to tell. After cooling from euphoria, we took a group shot and headed to the nearest bike wash at JB city centre. We then ended the day with happy memories, although enduring the hot sun, coupled with the fasting month. Indeed, there will be another Go-kart trip to be planned soon!
