There were two inspirations for this article.
1. We were given up to 10% discount at Missing Link bike shop as Vhen a kapadyak was making DP for Ridley Fenix alum bike (may sale sila) . Allan Flores who posts about the sale at RBP is an RBP group member.And as I thanked Allan, he said, or Missing Link answered, "basta rbp may discount". That is heartwarming
Why not have bikeshop that posts at RBP group site give the same privilege to other RBP members? That will generate more goodwill for the seller, and more reason why other bikers must be members of RBP.
2. Atty Fortun and some other ka RBP are giving away old bike parts (but useful and usable) - brakes, helmets,shoes, water bottle that some less fortunate kapadyak, RBP ians can use. They do contest or beauty contest, or sometimes invitation for bawas kalat.
Other members can do the same to encourage more bike rides.
Other advocacies:
1. Road safety:
1. Keep 1.5 meters off riders
2. Road sharing
3. Petition for better bike lanes (legislation)
2. Use of bikes as mass transport: (legislation)
1. Ride to work benefits: (legislation)
1. Vat tax exemptions who buy bikes for work
2. Loans from employers
3. Financing from lending companies
3. Bikers for disaster relief work:
1. Donations and contributions
2. Volunteers for relief and rescue work
Marami na tayo 100,000. We can be big force to reckon with. Baka makapag elect tayo ng party list Congressman. Atty. Fortun,, puwede kaba para makapagpasa ng batas na pro bikers.
This would require an organization, a secretariat for :
1. Membership registration
2. Issuance of membership cards
3. Discount agreement
4. Events and other work
