once again, raffles marina tuas anniversary's invitations

It has been raining cats & dogs the past few days so when I took a look at the sky this morning, it was like, well...gotta get the bike out for a spin and since Raffles Marina Tuas has invited Harley Riders for their 14th Anniversary Celebrations, why not? I arrived early, of course seafront parkings, just beside the berthing area, had my coffee whilst waiting for some other fellow riders to turn up. It was not a long wait anyway..., Dod Sng & Andrew Chu came rolling in with their "sewing machines". We then combined to have mee siams, satays, rojak and beers to gulp down. It was a nice cloudy morning with an air of festivals, regattas, magic shows, snake charmers, belly-dancers, taekwando displays and many leggy models manning the car booths (mini-coopers and some others). Families with children splashings in the pool and many babes strutting in their teeny-weeny bikinis...... wow! Good thing is that I met an old family friend (rider too) Mr Nigel whom I have not seen for sometime already.
By mid-noon, then the 1st convoy of Harleys came in. It was then, the head of the Raffles Marina catering, Mr Martin Chan came over and called out my name.., JoKiNg and handed over booklets of food vouchers and an envelope of beer coupons, compliments from the President of Raffles Marina Club, Mr Francis Lee. Well, now food galores and drinks freely flowed until late afternoon when I remembered it is a SUNDAY and I have to be in Church at least, for a reflections of the week. I then took off and ran into heavy downpour..., all wet!
Well, a quick bath and change and Holy Trinity Church bound. GOD bless!
