PEDAL x PADDLE 2018

For the third year running, Pedal x Paddle (PxP) aims to provide freshmen a glimpse of the type of activities done by the SMUX Biking & SMUX Kayaking Team. Given feedback from the previous year on the logistical nightmare of moving the Kayaks, PxP was held at Marina Reservoir this year in order to reduce cost and labor.

PxP 2018 attracted a total of 39 Participants on 9 September 2018, where participants from Biking and Kayaking came together to discover the scenic routes around Marina Bay. Split into two main groups, the first group started off from SMUX Kayaking’s home ground at Singapore Canoe Federation and paddled to the Marina Barrage, against iconic landmarks such as National Stadium, Gardens by the Bay and Singapore Flyer. Along the way, participants played some kayaking games and spotted some cute otters too! The other group started by cycling from National Stadium to ECP before returning to National Stadium. They breeze through checkpoints where they played some games and took some cool looking pictures! Following lunch with their facilitators, both group swapped activities before calling it a fun-filled adventure day of wheels and water!
