Prep for Triathlon

It's being almost a month since my last post.... Oh my goodness... Was I so busy ?

Nevertheless , I am back with my blogging ways.

Yes, as the title suggested , I am now finding everything about Triathlon and preparing for it.
Last Sat , I met up with my sec sch fren who was a bike lover since then . We went to this bike shop called "The Bike Boutique" at Tanjong Pagar, Tra St. (Just what I wanted to do all the while)

It gave me an opportunity to learn more about bikes. There are many different kind of bikes varying from road bikes, mountain bikes and Tri-bikes (meant for competition / countries which has lesser traffic lights) to decide with.

The salesperson , Grace was very helpful and imparted alot of knowledge about bikes.
She mentioned that bike fitting is very important for triathletes as you will spend half of your time on biking during TRI-ing. This will prevent back injuries and uncomfortness in your legs and hands if the frame is too big or too small. Hence , the bike needs to be one that fits your body nicely in order to enjoy the race.

She also shared about the importance of getting good parts so that you would not need to upgrade so many times if you get hooked to TRI-ing (trust me you will get hooked! Alvin will vouched for this)

I will be learning more about bikes before deciding whether to rent or buy one... To be able to start my first TRI, I must be committed.
