This has to be the best guide I have come across. I think I need to get one of those foldable bikes. I’m torn between getting a Jz88 and a Dahon.

Now you can post Ads without registering. Do try this new feature. It would be better if you leave some form of contact if you wish to be contacted.

If you see sgCarpool[Robo] appearing when doing a search do not be alarm. sgCarpool[Robo] is indeed a legimate poster created by us to help gather potential carpool leads.

Do not be alarmed if Alan adds you as a friend in facebook. We are trying to gain a foothold in facebook (ie promoting carpooling in Singapore).

As usual, we are working on some cool stuff. Do read our blogs from time to time.

We are sadden to hear that Tagxe has ceased its operations. Ride sharing users will miss you dearly. There will always be this void that can never be filled. We like to wish the Tagxe team all the best in whatever ventures they are pursuing.

A couple of sgCarpooler suggested that we should have some sort of guidelines for sharing the carpooling cost. One of them suggested this(refer to the table below) what do you guys and gals think? The price listed will be the total amount of what the driver is getting. For example, 2 passengers travel less than 10km will pay the driver $2.50 each ($5 divide by 2 passengers)

Let’s bug Alan(your exams over hahaha) with our comments. You know the drill sgcarpool@gmail.com .

Surprised that your favorite  streetdirectory.com service has been discontinued. SLA’s Map service is just not cutting it. Fret not try our customised version of Google maps. You can try it here. We are currently thinking of ways to improve it. Do try it and let your friends know. You can use sgMap to plan your routes.

We got some feedbacks that the registration process. We decided to scrap the email confirmation portion to make it easier for new sgCarpoolers to join in the fun of sharing and socialising. We are working on a couple of new and exciting features.

Finally LTA decided to carry out a trial on foldable bikes on trains and buses.

Mr Brown’s lessons learnt from riding every day to work for a year list a must read. I have tried that Dahon bike and it’s quite comfortable. It even has 3 speeds.
