- Singapore cycling tour. While traveling in Singapore one of our biggest goals was to cycle around the entire island (also known as the RTI or Round-the-island cycling route in Singapore). In total, it is about 130km with a mix of nice bike paths on the PCN (Park Connector Network) and some main roads. In the future, the Singapore government is planning to finish a full official bike path route around the island.
Thank you to Mobot for helping support us today and lending us some road bikes, the Camp Nova.

Me and my wife always watch your biking video. Unfortunately when u came here in SG we are out of country. Hope next time we can join u guys.. we ride road bike too.. ride safe 🚴🏽♂️🚴🏽♂️
Hi Cruise and Thuong, really nice to meet you in Singapore. We had good time spend together here. I love your storytelling and the views that you manage to show around Singapore. Hopefully next time we will meet in Da Nang. (before that I need some training :) Welcome come back to Singapore again. I can't wait to show you around more places in Singapore.
Yes, we will be back! And come to Da Nang sometime 😃
Congras NiNi fully inspired and become a Full Time TH-camr!
Hi Nini. Superb video. I would like to do the full island loop and wanted to request whether you would be keen to assist. Do let me know.
It's amazing how our cycling infrastructure in Southern Oregon, USA pales in comparison to these wonderful cycling ways you share. Thank you so much!
Lots of other countries invest in their cycling infrastructure and walkable cities. Sadly most places in the US only prioritize cars, but at least there are a lot of good MTB trails and gravel in the US.
Thanks for taking us on a "around the island" tour in Singapore! In my wildest dreams, I would never have imagined experiencing what such a bicycle adventure would look like. Everything looked so appealing, surrounded by peaceful ocean views, to say nothing of the amazing food breaks and bike infrastructure. This content is idyllic in so many ways. We appreciate the originality and high quality of your content, and, of course, you do a great job hosting the video shoot featuring your signature matter of fact commentary that always gives us just the right amount and type of information. Got to give you credit, too, for the really cool cycling outfits you guys wear in general and in this video in particular. Just wondering if the wet roads splashed up any water onto your clothing, and if so how you deal with it. Lastly, I have a honking horn on my hybrid similar to the one on your borrowed bike. I rarely use my honker (nice to have, though), and I have a bell, too, which is my go-to warning most of the time. Wouldn’t mind seeing video content shot in heavier rain (sorry) to get some idea of how you would cope with it and still have fun. Oh yes, it was great to have your wife share her thoughts in English near the end. It adds an important perspective on your cycling experience in Singapore. By the way, the country looks beautiful!
Thank you so much! We were very impressed during our time in Singapore.
We have a few older videos of cycling tours with days in the rain and I made a tips video for riding in the rain as well. th-cam.com/video/FQDzp9XdfrQ/w-d-xo.html
We're trying to challenge Thuong to start trying to speak more English in the videos lately, so glad to hear you like it.
I have to say next to your videos of Taiwan this one of your ride around Singapore is one of my favorite videos. I commented in one of your earlier Singapore videos how amazing the infrastructure for cyclists is top notch. Where I live here in Texas not so much, there dedicated bike lanes through some of the neighborhoods and along some major roads, where you still have a lot of interaction with autos, so safety is a major concern. Singapore is legit. Thank you Cruise for sharing the adventure. Enjoy the Ride!
Thanks Sam! Singapore is legit and we really miss Taiwan. Hopefully be able to go back soon (though Thuong's visa is more complicated now since she doesn't have Japan residence).
Thankfully it didn't rain for long! We are quite blessed with all the available pitstop around Singapore haha!
Yes, so many great places to stop and rest everywhere.
Looking forward to this one!
😁😁😁
Wow! What a great ride and cycling paths. Good to see a community that is supportive and provides the infrastructure for cyclists. Be safe. Be well. Blessings.
I just saw your video while trying to keep awake when studying late into the night, and I love your ride and commentaries in the video! I used to bike in the parks in Singapore when I lived there before. As a young kid, I loved the amount of nature and the rainy weather whenever I went biking and was allowed to go after school or on weekends.
Thank you for making such a wonderful video :).
Its been a while since I've been to Singapore, never a day goes by that I wish to go back and enjoy my adventures around the parks, trails, going to the neighbourhood food stalls, and visit the areas that have been renewed/newly constructed :)
Glad you enjoyed it!
Wonderful upload , Thank you for the wonderful bike tour around this beautiful island and country
Thanks for watching!
Good job guys, just came from nini's channel, can't wait to do the RI someday.
I’m glad I did the loop before moving… great content guys
Wonderful Round Island Ride experiences. Yes our weather is wet and shine.
The parks and infrastructure in Singapore is so beautiful.
Great video, enjoyed it
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it 😊
Love watching this video while on my stationary exercise bike! 👍👍👍
I really enjoyed your video, great ride 👍
Thanks 👍
Awesome video guys ❤
This is so amazing guys, love Singapore, love the view! I hope you have more of this, because that is gorgeous and such a great relaxation, not to mention it is great to watch while I'm on the exercise bike.
Thuong looks very good in the new bike outfit! I love runny eggs too, watching Thuong's face made me chuckle a little :D
What an ocean view, and those trees... That road is so great! We have similar ones in Stockholm, where the road is fully separated from the cars, and even double laned for incoming and ongoing traffic, it is much better indeed
Haha, I love the sounds of the hub too, it always reminds me that this is not biking, and biking is always wonderful :)
Seems like that tarmac is supersmooth.. you guys are just gliding...
Thanks! This was one of our best days in a while 😊
What a beautiful country! Seems like a perfect place for you guys to move
Yes, it is very tempting.
@@TwoWheelCruise you should if you gonna have kids soon singapore is a best place for education for young ones. Its safe
I miss Singapore ❤️ it's really nice to cycle around the island, its safe, and the road is really well paved
Nice vedio. I really enjoyed it. Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it!
Singapore is beautiful. Nice riding vlog. Love to follow her. Nice place to end your biking, love that structure. Thank you for sharing you two (or three)...🎥😃👍👌👊🚴♂️🚴♀️🚴♀️🙏
Glad you enjoyed!
awesome place to ride. as always, ride safe :)
Nice places and eats along the way!
Nice ride guys, congrats 👏 🙌
Thank you 🙌
You're lucky to seen so many places as you said bro, ride safe and stay safe always🇦🇪🙏🙏🙏
watching this episode make me want go to singapore and do loop around singapore. it look really fun
how much the rent price for the bike you use?
It is a lot of fun! We rented directly from Mobot, but they don't normally do rentals. There are many other rental options around though.
Great video Cruise and it's nice to see your new friend
Thank you!
Def gotta visit there myself. Loved the views 2wc!
How unfortunate. It's been the rainy season recently. We do have months that are mostly dry.
Hope you guys will have better luck with the weather! Hopefully will have a chance to bump into you guys. If not, enjoy your stay in SG
Thank you! It wasn't too bad, just delayed the start fortunately.
It was awesome for both of you to attempt a century in Singapore; alongside another up and coming local TH-camr, @妮妮江ninijiang that I’ve subscribed to.
Such is the synchronicity of a lifestyle on two wheels made even more unforgettable with local insight and pace.
Hope to visit both Singapore and Danang soon.
The vegetable you asked at Bollywood Farm is known as Si Gua Luo (絲瓜囉) or loofah/ luffa gourd. The ridged skin is meant to be peeled off and the flesh is diced up and stir fried with eggs.
Thanks for the info! We had a great time with Nini, great that cycling can bring people together like this.
Wow, the bike look so nice 👍
Thanks!
Awesome video
Thank you!
I have lived in Singapore for 15 years but have never had the opportunity to cycle around Singapore. I hope one day I can do it before I go back to my homeland in Malaysia. Thank you for sharing your experience and trip cycling around Singapore.
Give it a try one day! It should be really nice once they finish the PCN path all the way around.
You got a good cycling youtuber showing you guys around.
Yeah, Nini is great!
Oh it’s so nice that you guys teamed up I watch inninjangs videos too.
She's great! We had a lot of fun filming and hanging out together and she's now our best friend in Singapore 😁
@@TwoWheelCruise she has learned English in the videos. Interesting. Is that Thuong and her common language ? So cool
Awesome…
fun fact, the road at 30:40 is also used as a emergency runway for planes from the airforce base nearby
Oh wow, that's interesting!
Too bad i can only give a single thumbs up, i really enjoyed your clip (would have given you 3 LIKES if youtube allows !!).
And it's great to see you guys team up with Nini Jiang !
Looking forward to more clips !!
Stay healthy and have fun !
Thank you so much! 😊
Great Video! Contacted Mobot they don't rent out bikes so this idea for my visit next week lost momentum very quickly!
Watching from Toronto 🚴🏻
That was an awesome ride in awesome Singapore. I really have to get out there one day . . . maybe a one way trip 😉. Well, I'm with Thuong when it comes to runny eggs. I cannot eat them unless they are fully cooked. The bike paths are really great, except for "Truck Alley." I know your trip is short, but I'm hoping that you go back for a bit longer stay. You both certainly picked a great place.
It's pretty awesome, one way trip sounds good too haha
@@TwoWheelCruise yep, and it sounds better every time I watch those videos of yours. So keep them coming. 😂
Two-Bravo~ cool recording-
😁 Thanks!
Ha ha Thuong just couldn't make herself eating runny egg. Growing up in Brunei, eating the runny egg with soy sauce + pepper w. kaya toast - I just love it as well. Looks like great time cycling in S'pore - great video ;))
She eventually tried it and liked it 😊
I like your roads.. It's awesome👍
Nini has a really nice voice ❤
We stayed in Singapore just half a day, but stayed in Malaysia for one week in Kuala Lumpur ,and travelled into the countryside meeting with the locals eating all the great food!
Haven't been to Malaysia yet
Its so interesting that you are multilingual, english, japanese, chinese, vietnamese. Its nice that language is not a barrier for getting together and cycle! :)
Learning languages and cycling are both a lot of fun 😃 Cycling especially since it can bring so many different people together.
Toung is realy becoming pro. Riding comfortable in the drops.
I feel envies of you, riding in Singapore. Looks realy good, good roads. A stroke of luck with mobat lending you guys nice roadbikes. Thy should have landed you some shoes to 😜🤙
She's improved so much the last few months.
beautiful park for riding
I love riding in the rain! Cheap cooldown haha
It can be nice during summer.
🚴👍 love it riding for happy
😁😁😁
Good that you guys have chance to try the riding infrastructure here in Singapore
Yes, it was a very nice experience.
@@TwoWheelCruise you guys are also well followed by Mobot's customer/community too, hope to see you guys back in Singapore soon.
But runny eggs are awesome!! hahha
You can ask the stall owner to make the egg hardboiled
Thanks for sharing!
RIGHT!? 💪
Nini was a good guide. Hopefully she can come visit you two in DaNang.
Thanks! We hope she comes!
And Nini was pretty to plus good guidd
Singapore infrastrutures, be it the roads, cycling path, walking path = 1st class. Orderliness and cleanliness = second to none. All thanks to Singapore govt, lead by very capable and visionary leaders. Can't say the same for her northern neighbours which have a lot to catch up. Even for other developed countries like US, Japan. China, all these countries still have a lot to learn from Singapore, it's clean, safe and friendly. Also getting around S'pore is very convenient with its efficient public transport system and it's very cheap to use it. Only drawback - S'pore has become one of the most expensive cities in the world to live in, especially the housing sector.
Feels like moving to Singapore after seeing all road conditions in Da Nang
Like night and day, but DN has some nice mtn/ocean views
Breakfast looks great. The egg reminds me of onsen tamago…
Yeah, it's similar
I am watching your video to prepare my around Singapore cycling trip👍👍 realised from Pasir Ris to Mandai part was missing, I will figure that out 😀
Very nice.
Thank you!
That’s a nice jersey!
Thanks! It's our favorite!
Nice bike!
Thanks!
I like dipping bread in the runny eggs,tast so good!
YES!
"You mix egg in the coffee? " I like it.
Loving these video upload frequency you guys!!
Cruise, I was wondering if you've heard of the DAFT program in the Netherlands? It's VERY easy for Americans to become residents in the NL. You literally just register a business, deposit $4,500 into a business account, and then that's it, congrats you're a resident! Live there for 5 years and you can become a citizen. I think my wife and I are heavily considering this.
Thanks! We filmed a lot while in Singapore so we're able to upload more now.
We're considering Europe / Netherlands for long term and are hoping to do a travel visit next summer. If we really like it we may consider moving there more long term.
@@TwoWheelCruise that’s awesome can’t wait to see the vids! The DAFT program makes the NL really appealing that’s for sure. Portugal is easy too but I don’t think as fun. NL seems Japanese-like with their cleanliness and city development.
Watching bro
You are a lucky man indeed.
Nice ride 👍. Chi Thuong is certainly happy .. maybe ride to Johor also. Which makes your ride more then 200km for an entire loop...
Yes, we want to do the longer loop next time.
Kopi(coffee with milk) and Teh(tea with milk). Hope you enjoyed the beverage tastes.
What a life!
The peak heat time in SG as you pedal thru Lim Chu Kang area is actually around 3-4PM, cos at 12 noon, you only have the sun above, but at 3-4PM, the heat is coming also from the ground, cos by that time it's super heated. We try to time our RTI rides to avoid hitting the LCK and Tanah Merah Coastal Road stretches at that hour.
Thank you for the info! It certainly was a lot hotter then since we had a late start and were stopping to film often.
Thanks for taking us along the tour - very nice video!
I really like Mobot but it seems to be so hard to buy their products within the European Union. Is there an importeur in the EU? What would be the best way to order a bike from Mobot within the EU? I would be very thankful for such information here or in a video. Greetings from Germany :-)
I believe they're working on entering the EU market, so hopefully they have a better solution soon. Now the import/shipping fees are expensive so you're almost better off coming to Singapore on vacation and bringing the bike back with you.
@@TwoWheelCruise That's what I thought and would do - only my family won't tolerate to go to Singapore just for shopping ;-)
But actually I've been to Singapore with a folding bike and my camera and had the best time. Eating at Hawker Center and enjoying city and nature. ... and the best was to bike home through the night on emty streets when all the public transportation was already shut down for the night.
Thuong is adorable!
@29:51, its called ridge gourd. Very common in India and countries around
Thank you!
Senangnya bisa bersepeda di Singapura negara impian semoga suatu saat bisa berkunjung ke sana
Salam sehat....
YAA SAYYIDII YAA ROSULALLOH 🚴🏽🚴🏽
RTI PCN ECP... Singaporeans really love 3 letters acronyms for their roads.
COE and ERP 😂
😂
This would be a nice ride apart form the scary road bit, don't think I would risk that part
Wow, what interesting food! She is a very charming young lady. Is she from Singapore? I really need to visit Singapore. The egg looks delicious. Hope she visits you.
She's from China, but lives in Singapore now. We hope she comes too!
Wow, I really enjoyed this video. I felt that I was there with you. Since Singapore is a city nation and limit riding space does Nini cross the border often to get a more varied biking terrain? Is the border crossing routine with a passport?
You will still need a valid passport to cross the border, from Singapore to Malaysia and vice versa
Thanks! More serious riders will often cycle over to Malaysia. I don't think Nini does longer rides very often though.
The Singapore government is building more of such park connectors network to connect the different towns and MRT stations.
Awesome!
Amazing tour!! what kind of electronic bell does the bike come with at 14:58?
It's connected to the Mobot light so it uses the same battery.
Singapore is the best
I saw the video from that singaporian girl, who rode with you, She struggled on that one hill with 3% gradient. Afterwards you said to her, she should not use so easy gears, better heavier gears. Why did you recommend that? I mean, a harder gear for her would not make her faster, but more pain to spin the crank.
I guess she is a beginner and for a beginner it is better a higher cadence than a slower cadence on hills. When she always pushes the same watts, it is less painful with a higher cadence than a lower cadence.
She needs to work on her watts, not on the cadence in my opinion.
It would be interesting, how you meant that exactely?
I noticed that during our ride she was not really changing her gears. This was a problem that Thuong used to have where she did not realize when or how she should change gears based on the terrain. On that hill, I thought she was struggling more because of the high cadence and suggested she try a bigger gear to see if it would be easier for her.
@@TwoWheelCruise Ah ok, I see. Thanks.
I am also a fan of Ning Ning 😊
She's great!
Ninni so cute ,
Awesome. Do you still use your dji pocket 2 to film your cycling? Thanks
Yes, usually for night videos
Hi, Glad you and wife enjoyed your cycling trips here in Singapore. Do they have road bikes rental in Danang if I intend to go for a day cycle during my travels there?
There are some MTB rentals, but I think road bike is more rare.
你们太厉害了吧
Thank you 😊
Just like Thuong I am not a fan of runny eggs. Great cycling infrastructure except for the truck section. Much more calming without motorbikes constantly coming from all directions.Interesting to learn that English is widely spoken there.
Yes, apart from that road everything was very nice.
Just fyi, English is the official language in Singapore.
@@yoominbi unofficial…
@@daniely5260 No, Singapore have 4 Official Language (English, Malay, Tamil, Mandarin) and 1 National language (Malay). Literally stated in a statement by Prime Minister Office in 1965.
@@yoominbi yalam la wtf
Singapore is SEAsia 101. Easy peasy. I want to hear about cycling around Vietnam and Saigon.
Yes Singapore is easy mode compared to Vietnam haha
What a wonderful adventure! What are your reviews about the camp nova? Planning to get one but there arent much reviews out online and would like to see your opinions on it
💘💘💘💘👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Are u able to elaborate more on the seahorse? How or why was it there and is it common in that country? I always thought they were fable tales. Great video too.
No idea. There were a few of them there and we were really confused.
Hope our CAMP Nova road bikes had served you well.
They were great, thanks! Loved the aero handlebars.
What type camera are u using sir
That third guy also kasama....🤣🤣🤣... We all shichan family
The Changi Village Hawker Centre too bad under renovations. If not, get to enjoy many nice local foods.
I recently made a route around the city limits where I live that totaled 97kms. 130 kms to ride around an island / country does not seem very far.
My longest ride was 133.6 miles. On my 73 lb tour bike with a Sturmey Archer 5 speed.
About 12.5 hours. LOL. Exactly double my age ride. Only 29 miles into the light wind.
Yes, Singapore is not that big. Though you can do a longer loop about 180km I believe.
@@TwoWheelCruise It must be that here in Canada we are used to much open space. There are probably more people in less space in Singapore than in Toronto.
May i request for an honest review of the mobot road bike? Is there a huge difference between the Mobot road bike and say a Specialised SL6?
It felt good and performed well throughout our ride. The bike felt natural after we set our saddle position and we didn't need any other adjustments. I did not do any hard efforts or fast cornering / accelerations, so I can't say anything about that.
