According to Chee Sen, Koji Fukushima, one of the five who break away from the peleton and finish the race 1 min ahead of the rest, was riding half way and he saw the “9 inch nails bed”, he took his socks and shoes off and wanting to try it out. Immediately, there were 2 officers trying to stop him from doing that.

Koji Fukushima soloed to the win in 2005 Stage 3 at Tanah Merah with an impressive margin of 02′35″ over the peloton. A photo journalist told me that Koji worked the most hard today in the group of 5 who breakaway, he is definitely one to watch for the rest of the 6 stages!
