Idea of race back to Baguio City from Urdaneta gaining traction

The thought of returning to Baguio City soon, with the ride starting from Urdaneta is gaining traction and many are interested.

The idea came when Engr June, who was our host in Urdaneta last Baguio City ride February 10 to 12, floated that idea that perhaps we could race to Baguio City soon from Urdaneta.  I mentioned this to VM and some of Recyclists and they liked the idea.  I posted this at FB, a three liner and there were many views and likes

One of them was Sec Noe, whose dream of scaling Baguio City was dashed last Feb 11 when Nanding said he does not know the route when we were all ready in Rosario La Union (ako rin di ko alam)

#Bike Race at #Rosario Pasig City September 28, 2014

                    The start and finish life of the criterium

I rode to Antipolo City yesterday.  However at 8:00 o clock, I decided to ride to Pasig City to investigate and take pictures of the probable cause of the last flood in Pasig Ortigas and Cainta.  However past Valley Golf (Gold) I saw Val beside me.  And he said he was riding to Rosario because there was a race.

And Choco choco was joining the race.   He said the group will probably ride to Rosario too. He patiently waited for me to take pictures of the narrow and obstructed creeks at Cainta and near Riverside.  We parted  ways at LIfe Homes. and took pictures of the Manggahan floodway and Pasig River.

                      Val going ahead

And then I rode to Rosario.  I could not find him though.

I just watched the All Pasig MTB race which consisted of 5 laps.  The bike race was prep for the barangay fiesta on October 5 and was sponsored by Councilor Ricky Eusebio.
