Yeah yeah, power rangers,.. got yellow ranger. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yellow_Ranger

And before you laugh it off, consider this:
Yellow ranger is the 3rd most often included (red and blue are always present). Yellow Ranger is represent earth, the team stability, and often is the team's morale booster in times of crisis.
Power Ranger series is one of the longest running series in Japan, with japanese original name Super Sentai (Sentai is not , Sentai as in "Task Force" or "Fighter Squad"). It started in 1975 and is still running strong despite other competitors, which came and gone. It is imported and adapted by American movie industry first in 1993, and continue having a strong demand till now. I wish I am the one who hold the copyright of this series, unfortunately I am not.

Basically, they do not expect us to have such a big grouping in Singapore.  They also wander why Taipei Rapid Transit (=MRT) do not allow Strida on its train without Strida bag.  Whereby, our MRT allows it.  Lastly, they wander why we ride thru a misty gravel road in forest.

Ah, I know the answer to the last one. It is not mist. It is fog. Fog of insecticide, due to dengue outbreak in Singapore. You can tell them that.

Ya i told them about fog of insectide.  However, i think they only fog it because of NDP practise.  Scare d NS guy kena dengue

By d way, i think LTA might b starting on some work 2 build a road 4 next yr F1 race.  So, we might lost some of d greeneries in Marina Promenade (especially d foggy gravel road).  Shall we organise another similar ride end of d year?  B4 all d greeneries r gone.

[baru]

   Yes, please do organise another trip along the same route, after the F1 route gets built up, it won't look the same anymore.   

[awcute]

Then we can ride on the F1 track and become a road menace... by hogging the road coz we are slow. hahahaha

Some forest "fog" pictures of Strida riders and the waterfront...
