We are into Cycling

By
I am not very sure how and when. Suddently, I decided to go into cycling. Yap, it was just like that. I have a few friends that are already into cycling like Akula Matiau and Azahari. I had no interest in cycling while I was in Geneva a few years ago. I didn't see it interesting. 

Cycling is not like riding superbike because I'll be the only one riding it - the seat is for one anyway :P This time is with my wife. The main reason why I'm into cycling is because I want to exercise. At least to maintain my weight under 70 kg and to keep my waist below 32 inches...haha.



We spent about two weeks searching for suitable bikes and of course the bikes that are within our budget. It's quite hard for a people like me that knows nothing about cycling - what bike, what gears, prices, brands, types of bikes etc. Majority of the existing websites say nothing about these basic things. They are more interested on jamborees and cycling events. Sellers or shops are dare to publish their prices on the website. We looked on the internet and saw a few bicycle shops around KL. We went one by one looking at the various models and prices, from as low as RM2,000 to RM30,000's bikes. RM30,000 tengok ajer ler.

We managed to find bikes within our budget after two weeks of searching. For the cycling gears, problem solved because I've ordered them from UK. I tried to buy them from Malaysia but the prices sometimes very unreasonable. They are 30%-40% cheaper in UK. Now, we are in!

As I mentioned in an earlier post, there are many Halal restaurants available in Geneve.  This is due to a very large Muslim community here be it expatriates, visitors or the local population.  In fact, if you walk anywhere in Geneve center, you will always encounter many Muslims especially women wearing Hijab.  Today, I will be sharing with you where to find Halal food ingredients (later I will share about restaurants).  Boucheries: for chicken (poulet), beef (beouf) and related products 1. Geneve centre Fresh products in Geneve is a little bit pricey as compared to those in France.  However, just in case, you need to buy in small portion, these places are available for you to find the products.

On a footed destiny…

By
“The foot feels the foot when it feels the ground.” Buddha quotes (Hindu Prince Gautama Siddharta, the founder of Buddhism, 563-483 B.C.) --> “Patah kaki” literally described us when we started our life in Versoix. The mode of transport was a 10-minute walk to the nearest bus stop called Les Fayards. From there, we have to take a TPG (Transport Public Genevois) bus which operates almost every hour to Geneva. The journey on the V-bus would take us around 50 minutes along the countryside, down the lane and up the hill, passing by monuments, the Red Crescent HQ, the UN place and homes. --> It was winter and a 10-minute walk could feel like forever with the cold frigid wind blow against you. I could not imagine hubby going out early in the morning, walking towards the bus stop and waiting for the bus in the winter season. Sometimes, he had to brace the thick snow or the slippery black ice along the road. From his office, another 10 minutes walk to the nearest bus st
