Gerry's flat at Caliraya
Choco watches his Tito fix his 2nd flat
Rides would not be complete without spice of incidents/situations. Situations are spice of rides.
Some of the incidents:
1. Gerry had two flats. He replaced his flat tube with one that had 55 mm valve. I said Gerry's valve (tt) is long. He had one in Caliraya. The other one was in Pangil just before FAmy. When he had the right valve, no more flats took place
2. One involved extreme fatigue. He was heard to have taken a trike ride up to Bugarin (sign of difficulty) On the way of to Caliraya, he was left behind including by yours truly. He used below low gear say 34 x 29 and had intermitten pedalling. I guess I was affected by his giving up statements early (that he preferred pedalling home) that is why at km 99, I contemplated on giving up. But the better part of me said no.
3. One had cramps starting at Mabitac. That is why I noticed him pouring water on is thighs and legs. We was left behind by at least 30 minutes up and down Bugarin up to Pisong Kape and we had to escort him slowly Cardona and LLDA.
Nolite waited us at Lumban
He all ready had 1-2 pedalling cadence on the way to Manay
He lacked long rides
