I suspect you are living near lakeside. 154 route uses the
AYE.
If so, you can also go by Boon Lay Way.. all the way until
commonwealth ave west. have a sense of direction. turn left once
after Clementi MRT. Assure that the bustop you're passing by got
184 and you're safe.
The one you suggested is quite good, If im not wrong, you will
be racing with 157/67/66 heh..
You want another route to explore(longer)...
From Bukit Batok Road all the way straight until Ten Mile
Junction.. then turn right, signboards should lead to Bukit
Timah/Clementi. Yet when nearing King Albert Park, you may wanna go
to the opposite direction and cycle on pavement(it will be an
uphill from then on. You can enter the same road(aft TMJunc) from
Hillview Avenue also
