Cycling with "Piston Legs" ...
Yesterday was very special as my family was invited by Liza, KG's sister for lunch together with Jen Huat and Theodore at the Sentosa Golf Club and we had a wonderful time catching up and sharing our stories about our beloved KG. I promised her a video that I shot many years ago of myself and KG cycling in Bintan Island, Indonesia and here it is. This was in June/July 2009. Koh Gay was cycling his Surly LHT 700c wheel touring bicycle while I was riding my Bike Friday Tikit ultra small 16" wheel folding bicycle. Two extremes in the bicycle world - one was the best touring bike and the other, the best folding bike. In a sense, our bikes reflected how different we were. KG is so tall while Im 5'6". He loves running while I don't. He is so strong while I am average physically. He is quiet and I'm chatty. He is serious and determined while I am playful. But we got along like a house on fire and were the best of friends since we met in ACS in 1977 or
