For A Change, A Cross-country Ride

06 February 2010.It has been awhile that we do a cross-country ride, since most of us are more inclined with downhill mountainbiking. Anyway, this ride was planned by Toto of Intense Bikeshop hitting the Malipay trail near Portofino Village-Alabang with a lot of new faces. Meetup was set at around 6AM at Intense Bikeshop. But, since I knew Toto to be always late at meetups, I intentionally came in late at around 630AM. haha!!! (read more)

It's a Date

25 October 2009.  Well, this is my wife's baptism of rocks and muds at Mt. Makiling-Mudspring trail. A day before, we have to decide between Nuvali track in Sta. Rosa or Mt. Makiling in Los Banos for our trail ride destination for the day. And, I opted for Makiling (where I can do downhilling) which she agreed. (read more )

 

 

Markmen at Global Gutz, Splash Island  

10 October 2009.  I'm supposedly unable to attend our 2nd paintball session with Teradyne guys. But, due to insistence of my colleague, I squeezed it in my schedule. After my solo mountainbike ride at Mt. Makiling, I went straight to Splash Island at Southwoods, Carmona, Cavite where our 2nd paintball session is held. (read more)

 

Quick Solo Ride at Mt. Makiling 

10 October 2009.  It's been a month that I'm out of the saddle due to typhoons onset every weekends. Weekend is my only time to bike and I was quite unlucky that every weekend, there's an onset of typhoon. However, I still consider myself lucky considering how typhoons Ondoy and Pepeng, brought havoc to the islands. While those 2 typhoons devastated most part of Luzon province, my family and I are safe from home. I opted to stay home as I feel won't totally enjoy riding in the rain, just like my September 5th ride . Thus, after hearing the news that typhoon Pepeng went out of Philippine territory, and brought no more rain starting yesterday, Friday, I decided to pack-up my gears and be ready for a short and quick saturday ride. I have to do it quick because I have another paintball session with my colleague at Teradyne , on the same day.(read more)
