After the race, we'll be having lunch at the elegant and exquisite Zen Shindo Art Cafe. A little about this cafe, it aims to offer cosy, different and healthy cuisine. Experience award winning chef’s Alan Sim’s original brand of pan-Asian fusion cuisine. For more information, check the cafe out @ http://www.zenshindoart.com.sg/index.html.
In case of bad weather as some of you might be concern, below are the plans.
Situation 1: Drizzle before and after all of you have arrived. Plan: We will proceed as planned.
Situation 2: Heavy rain and thunderstorm before and after you all have arrived. Plan: We will chill out at MacDonalds and have breakfast. If after breakfast, heavy rain and thunderstorm still persists, we will play a board game which I will bring on that day. It is an interesting board game and I'm sure most of you would not have played before. The amazing race will commence as long as the rain stop or becomes lighter. The amazing race will be cancelled or postponed if heavy rain and thunderstorms persist after and beyond 1230 hrs.
Situation 3: Drizzle during the course of race. Plan: We will continue the race.
Situation 4: Heavy rain and thunderstorm during the course of race. Plan: We will seek the nearest shelter and take a rest. Once the rain becomes lighter or stops, we will continue the race. If heavy rain and thunderstorm persists for more than an hour, we will cancel the race, return and gather at the Log Point.
Of course, even at the event of heavy rain but no thunder and lightning and if both teams agree to move on despite the heavy rain, we are absolutely fine with it too. Based on next Saturday 26 Dec 2009 weather forecast,
Description of weather: Late thunderstorms. Mostly cloudy. Warm. High Temp: 29 degrees Celsius Low Temp: 24 degrees Celsius Comfort Level: 34 degrees Celsius Wind Speed: 13km/hr Wind Direction: South Humidity: 75% UV index: 0 (Low) Chance of rain: 77% Amount rain: 8.2mm Sunrise: 07:04 Sunset: 19:07
~Thou shalt not be deterred by bad weather~
Lastly, there are bathing facilities sprinkled all over East Coast Park so you may wish to bring along your showering equipment for a shower after the race.
P.S: Please bring extra cash on the day of outing.
~Thou have done his part, leave the rest to God~

Hello guys, it's been a while since we all got together. Just would like to inform you all that on the 26 Dec 2009 next Saturday, there'll be a Trackist outing. No movies, no food gatherings, no Sentosa and no pot luck this time. We'll be having an Amazing Race at East Coast Park instead. I understand you've been informed by Huan Shern about the outing and I thank you for being cooperative in confirming your attendence. For those who have not yet confirm your attendence with him, please do so. I'll be unveiling the details of the Amazing Race here.
Date: 26 Dec 2009 Day: Saturday Time: 0930 hrs Meeting Place: At the skating area beside the bicycle rental shop after you've exit the underpass. Attire: Lightly attired ie. PT shoes and PT kit.
Misc.: Water is provided throughout and along the Amazing Race as there is a mobile water point. Lockers is provided so you can deposit your stuffs and need not carry them during the race. You may wish to bring extra clothing to change after the Amazing Race. After lunch, it's Free & Easy as in we can cycle or roller skate or do anything you want.
IMPT: Below is a video of the song 'Nobody' by the Wonder Girls. Please do take a few looks at the video and be familiarise with the actions and dance moves at the chorus of the song from 1.13mins to 1.29mins. This is because you may be required to do this. I'm not stopping you to put the video in any video storage device that you have so that you can use the video as a reference if you had to do the dance.
LASTLY on how to get there. If you wanna make sure you appear at the right meeting place and be able to find me and Huan Shern, I suggest you heed my advice. Take MRT to Eunos and take bus 13. When you see this very obvious big multi-storey carpark with blue railings as shown below at the FRONT of your bus, please alight. Cross the road, walk straight cutting the HDB flats and you'll see an underpass on your left. Pass the underpass and you'll see us then.
This is the big multi-storey carpark with very obvious blue railings that I mentioned above.
~Take care and we hope to see you there!~
