The way points of this bicycle route:

Yio Chu Kang Road

When there is heavy traffic, you may have trouble cutting to the rightmost lane. Consider taking Philips Avenue instead, where the traffic lights allow you to reach the rightmost lane safely.

Serangoon Gardens

Lorong Chuan

Take the middle lane to turn right

Braddell Road

Here one has to avoid an extremely dangerous 2-lane left-turn filter. MAKE YOURSELF VISIBLE HERE.

There tends to be a lot of debris along this stretch

Thomson Road

Lornie Road provides a shortcut but I find it unsafe. It's also much hillier.

Chancery Lane

It is near impossible to filter right to make this turn when traffic is heavy.

Bukit Timah Road

Less lazy and braver souls might want to take the flyover; I'd rather wait at the traffic lights.

Bukit Timah

Bukit Timah

Bukit Timah

Bukit Timah

this traffic light can be irritatingly long

At around 7am on school days, these junctions are a little dangerous due to a large number of parents driving in to NYPS.

Beware uncaring NYPS parents cutting in front of you to turn left in the early morning

Duchess Road

This lets you bypass the NYPS jam on King's Road and Coronation Road

Coronation Road

Holland Road

It's difficult to filter right here, even in the early mornings. If you can't, then you have to take TWO pedestrian crossings.

Buona Vista Road

Whee! Downhill past the glum commuters at the worst bus stop in Singapore. They tend to stare at you.

Biopolis

There is a depression in the left lane here that cannot be easily seen unless it is filled with water. Don't ride too far left unless you like bruised crotches

IMCB bike rack, decently sheltered. Bike racks at Nanos and Helios much better sheltered though.
