The Great Mystery

This problem has been bothering me for the last 5 years. Perhaps readers more familiar with the geography of Singapore can enlighten me on the subject.
Some of you will know that there are 2 SICC clubhouses on mainland Singapore. One is located at Thomson Road and the other at Bukit Timah end of Lornie road. In my juvenile years, I had the impression that these are actually the same clubhouse, it just has two entrances. But I was priveleged to be invited to dine at these clubhouses during my national service days, and have since realized that they are actually separate entities and are rather far apart.
A few years ago, one drunken night at Zouk, I came across an intrepid traveller who recounted to me a most daring feat. In his early teens, he biked from Thomson to Bukit Timah through the grounds of SICC! He also added that the journey seemed to take forever and he almost died of thirst.
Inspired by this conversation, I attempted to navigate the course in my trusty Mitsubishi Lancer. But the paved road rapidly turned into a mudpath with no street lights. Since the sun was setting, I was forced to turn back or risk getting lost in the darkness of the jungle.


More recently, Googleearth has helped me solve part of the problem. There are no paved roads connecting the two. But is it possible to navigate between them on foot or bike? I have marked out two possible routes. In fact, upon closer inspection, there seems to be another path which leads over to the Chartered Industries factory at the end of Rifle Range Road.
I am determined to attempt this treacherous journey on bike this christmas holiday... wish me luck...
