Bike Ride today to Antipolo with the Recyclists - February 16, 2014

Wheels of Happiness

 
 Crit Route at Marikina Hts. today for Ronda

Angono,  Rizal  Philippines  February 16, 2014

We just finished our bike ride today.

I did not know that the Recyclists planned to bike to Antipolo, go to church and thereafter wheel to Marikina to final the final and championship lap of Ronda International 2014.  We assembled at Tikling and those who were there were Joel, Jayjay, VM, Luis, Master,  Gerry, Choco2. I tried to be ahead up to Palmera but they caught me at Fibertex and Choco2 VM, Jess got ahead.  Master overtook me and Gerry near Alta Vista.  Gerry said I was well practiced (what I did not touch bike for 2 weeks?!) Ven, Vic, and Gerry later arrived.

  However we were not clear as to the time. Was it 10 am, 1 pm or 3 pm.  So we just finished the mass, had breakfast at Vivienne (at C Lawis) - that is where many bike champs have lugaw or mami -  Santi Barrinechea etc.  Vivienne ran out of eggs and even tokwa and was confused when we arrived.

So many bikers came an unusual number, probably because of the final lap of Ronda, which is just about 10 km ride away at Marikina City.

And so we rode home - VM, Jess, Abet and Ven.  But the rest did not follow us. Edgar was on his way probably riding  to Marikina when he saw us and stopped. They later texted that they accompanied Secx to a store.  We waited from 9:50 to 10:30 at Edwards bike shop near Taytay Memorial.  When they were not around yet we decided to ride home.
