‘Joseph Cycling’ Swims One Lap In Flooded Bukit Timah Trail Before Continuing Cycling Trip
A video of a man swimming in flood water while cycling at Bukit Timah Nature Reserve went viral, earning him the moniker of “Joseph Cycling”.
Netizens had a fun time unleashing their creativity in the comments section.
Some made fun of boomers’ favorite line.
Cue in the kopitiam orders.
Maybe, he’s the Singapore hope for the next Olympics.
And the Joseph Schooling jokes just keeps flowing.
Jokes aside, the reason for the flash floods today is due to the unusual amount of rainfall recorded. PUB issued flood risk warnings along Upper Bukit Timah area, Woodlands and Sunset Drive.
According to PUB, the heaviest rainfall recorded was 159.8mm in the western part of Singapore at Bukit Panjang road between 7.50 to 10.40 am.
It corresponds to 109% of Singapore’s average monthly rainfall for the month of August and lies within the top 0.5% of maximum daily rainfall records since 1981.
Reporter’s Opinion: Living the dream, swimming in Milo Peng gao.
But with such heavy rainfall lately, it’s better to lay off trekking, hiking and cycling at such terrains for now.
Stay safe y’all!
