Safety Issue Top of Mind
Safety went to the next level for cyclist buddies Davin, Shaoxiang and Darnie. "We wanted him to try some offroads like BT or perhaps even Pulau Ubin, and suggested that safety is paramount and that a helmet can do just that," said Shaoxiang. "I thought that is was a waste of money, but since it is a one off thing and it does provide safety, why not?" said Darnie, who spent a whopping $80 on a GIRO helmet, after Davin and Shaoxiang threatened not to let him leave Tay Cycle if he does not buy one.

Every year, cyclists have been known to die from fatal injuries that could have had been prevented by wearing safety gears. However, lousy drivers of today in Singapore is posing more harm to road users and cyclists alike. Those in motor cars still think they own the road, since they pay road tax. So be it such a Singapore society.
