Amazing Night Cycling Race 2011

Cyriva Club has just concluded our Amazing Night Cycling Race 2011 on 15th September till 16th September 2011. This annual night cycling event requires participants to form their own teams of 5 and travel around Singapore Island using bicycles. Their teamwork, leadership skills and endurance levels were tested as they were required to clear several challenges at the various pit stops before they can proceed on. 

The event started off when the participants arrived around 6.30pm at East Coast Park. When each Team arrived, they had to complete a Puzzle Game. In order to obtain their first clue to the Puzzle Game, they had to search for 2 of our Cyriva Club members who were roaming around intentionally, to collect a crossword puzzle. They would then complete the puzzle and proceed to the bike rental stall to collect their bikes.


Throughout the night, participants were needed to navigate their way to the next pit stop. The Second Pit Stop was along East Coast Park. The game is called 2 People 3 legs, where students needed to tie their legs together and make their way together.  After each team completed the task successfully, they were given a Clue Card that would lead them to the next Pit Stop.

After the Pit Stop at East Coast Park, they made their way to Bedok Reservoir, where they had to compete with other teams. They would need to burst the other team’s balloons in order to win.


The next game was carried out at Sun Plaza Park, Tampines. After every team completed the word hunt game, they had another mission to complete, Picture hunt. They had to take picture along their way to Pasir Ris. Upon arrival at the Fifth Pit Stop, Pasir Ris, they would have to present the pictures before they could attempt the next activity.



Upon finishing the game, they set off to Changi to have their break. All the participants looked forward to have their supper at, the all famous, Changi Nasi Lemak.  After the sumptuous and satisfying break, they headed to Changi Beach for another game, Bike Tricks. They really had fun, while performing tricks using their bicycle. Following next was Balloon Charades. Team member had to perform for the other members to guess the activity. Communication and rapport were very important here and all teams did quite well. 


After completing the final pit stop, they raced all their way back to the finishing line. In all, the activities carried out helped to foster better bonds and communication within teams.
