North and south

To Johore Bahru, Malaysia, 133 km. I head north to Johore to buy some government maps, for this year's epic ride to Thailand via the west coast of Peninsula Malaysia. After a wild goose chase, no thanks to someone who points me in the opposite direction, I find the map office. It's closed. And so is the tourist information centre. I head back empty handed and disappointed, and cycle south to National University of Singapore. I kill two hours successfully, taking a ride down memory lane. I join the training ride for the NUS centenary ride next year. There are a few close calls, one from a cyclist and several from buses. I meet LYC, who'd joined me for part of last year's epic ride to Thailand via the east coast.
