yo guys, another upcoming event, the round ubin race 09.
from the form....
The Round Ubin Kayak Race started its first run in 2005. Since then, it has attracted a fair number of kayaking enthusiasts to gather together to challenge against each other in a race where they can plan, strategise and manage their race with great skills in a natural open sea environment where they may face possible strong wind conditions and choppy waters. The Round Ubin Kayak Race 2009 is a paddle sport racing event that also challenges the endurance, speed, stamina and paddling skills of participants in the open sea. Once again this year, the race shall take participants round the beautiful northern islands of Singapore – Pulau Ubin. For approximately 22km, the competitors will be pitting their paddling skills and race strategies against each other from bustling Pasir Ris Beach to the southern side of Pulau Ubin, passing by Tajam as they paddle swiftly round the corner and straight through the Straits of Johor with the Malaysia state of Johor on one side and the erected fences (to ward off illegal immigrants) along northern Ubin on the other side. Eventually racing closer to the Finishing Line but not before paddling with great skills around Chek Java, well-known for its rich marine life, and taking in the sights along the southern shoreline of Pulau Ubin and its fair share of scattered kelongs with its ever vigilant guard-dogs barking virtually at anything or anyone who comes near.
Through this exhilarating event, the People’s Association Water-Venture and its paddling members hope the level of interest and standard of this paddling sport would increase promisingly. And the participants would experience and appreciate the spectacular waterways that Singapore has and be proud that they have competed and completed a race that brings out the best from them, both mentally and physically.
