November 20, 2011 ride

Bike for Health

I think most of the Recyclists-2010 do a Saturday ride.  That is why the Sunday riders do not have as much ride hours with those who bike on Saturdays.  What did we do today?

l.  Ride to overlooking site before Bugarin

        After gathering in Morong, at 8:00 am we ride from Maybancal.  As usual, before the Baras cemetery it was a race.  Guys were doing 45 to 47 kmh.  Of course I arrived a minute later as I was doing only 30 kmh on the average.  We had two waves going up overlooking.  Smith accompanied me  and said I was riding faster up the hill. I hope he was not just making me feel good.  The second wave included VM and Angel.

2.  We watched the Tanay Bike Race

         On the way back, at Tanay, right before the cemetery hill, we stopped to watch bike race.  It was a criterium race;  maybe five rounds round Tanay from Town proper to Manila East Road, Sampaloc road to Market, Provincial road, and to a crossroad going out at intersection with Manila East Road.  Some of the guys whom we know who joined the race were:    Papa Ric (in the 70+ category, sure winner, Boy, 7 days,  Jestoni, and Boyet.  We all cheered for them.  We left as soon as the race was over and went our own little races as we rode.

We had the usual stop overs at Pisong Cafe, overlooking, and in front of Calingo bike store.  No we did not ride through the Cardona bypass.  It was kind of hot.  We were early;  we were home by ll am; I was questioned for being early.

Absent were:   Amigo, Engr. June, and Master.  It is todays fiesta at Muzon where Master leaves -  for Christ the King
