Riding on yellow lines is sometimes dangerous. Got drain covers, potholes, stones, glass debris, wires out of nowhere, carcass, oily / dusty surface. Sometimes when i see these is already too late.

Dogs Warning

Hi all,

I was on Seletar North at around 4:40 this morning and passing one of the construction sites when these two dogs decided to chase me. Hair raising for sure since it was totally unexpected and they chased me for about 5 seconds.

I've been chased before and this has been the closest any ever got to me. Never been chased in SG and I've cycled through whole packs of them near Lor Halus, Yishun, Kranji, LCK, etc. I've even chased some off the road. Grrrr...

After they stopped, I armed myself with a wrench and turned around to go look for them. It's extremely dangerous for both cyclists and dogs for them to be running around. I went to one entrance of the construction site and called the company to leave a message.

I then went to the other entrance and found one of the dogs and scolded it. Not while on its territory of course! I was across the road but could easily see it when I shone my torch around the area.

So, please, everybody be careful! Ride safe!

The company called me back and they denied that the dogs are theirs. Grrrr...

I have filed a police report in order to establish a paper trail.
