			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;m organizing an short hike on 30 November 2008 (that is next Sunday), up Bukit Timah Hill!</p>
<p>Here are the details:</p>
<p><strong>Date:</strong> 30 November 2008</p>
<p><strong>Time:</strong> 0830hrs &#8211; 1400hrs</p>
<p><strong>Venue:</strong> Bukit Timah Nature Reserve</p>
<p><strong>Where to meet:</strong> 0830hrs sharp outside the visitor center toilet!</p>
<p><strong>Fee:</strong> What fee?  Its FREE!  (Thanks Ana, for asking though) <img src='http://trekking.singaporeoutdoors.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>We&#8217;ll be taking the smaller trials and this will probably take 3-4 hours, depending on the group size and speed.  From my previous experience, there will be quite a lot of steps (enough to get you panting if you don&#8217;t train regularly), so be prepared. <img src='http://trekking.singaporeoutdoors.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />   </p>
<p>According to the NParks Website, the yellow trial takes 2 hours.  We&#8217;ll be taking the black route.  Yes, that&#8217;s my drawing <img src='http://trekking.singaporeoutdoors.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif' alt=':P' class='wp-smiley' />  </p>

<p>You&#8217;d probably want to allocate until mid afternoon for the event, if you are an time planning fanatic like me.  </p>

<p>Here is the group photo we took today.  If you want the original hi-res photos, drop me a comment, and I&#8217;ll be in touch over email!</p>
<div class="postimagecenter"><a href="http://trekking.singaporeoutdoors.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/macritchie-10-aug-08.jpg"><img src="http://trekking.singaporeoutdoors.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/macritchie-10-aug-08.jpg" alt="" title="macritchie-10-aug-08" width="400" height="300"/></a></div>
<p><strong>So what&#8217;s next, Kian Ann? </strong> <img src='http://trekking.singaporeoutdoors.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_mrgreen.gif' alt=':mrgreen:' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Ha ha&#8230; now that we&#8217;ve met up, we can work on some longer and more interesting treks (I see that today was kinda &#8220;no sweat&#8221; for many of you!).</p>
<p>Shall we go Bukit Timah next?  What about Sat 30th August, or Sun 31st August?  This will be slightly more challenging than today!</p>
<p>Meanwhile, I know many of you have plans to go overseas and are already looking for kakis! Heh&#8230; I&#8217;ll set the forum quick so you can communicate with each other!</p>
