Today is Lourdes Day (the day of sighting of Mama Mary at Lourdes France, not as Mama Mary's birthday as one post of big bike store said) and also the fiesta at Morong (St Gerome)   Hordes of bikers had free breakfast at Simples house.   (The lugawan was closed.)

Salamat po sa libreng pakain at fiesta.

From all of us:

It was fiesta in Morong yesterday; we had free breakfast at Simples February 8, 2015

Wheels of Happiness

                    Enjoying free food at Simples

If you did not bike yesterday, you missed the fiesta celebration of Morong, and missed the free breakfast at Simples Lugawan.

Maybe a hundred bikers swarmed Simple's and wiped the entire profits for that early am arrival.  I never saw such great number of cyclists.

                            Lining up for their turn

                   We had chopsuey, Shanghai rolls, adobo, beans and gelatin for dessert

                      Others dined at the kitchen

                    So many bikers came in droves; these kapadyaks were finished eating

                    More bikers outside the house

                     So many bikers and bikes

Rizal Philippines   | November 24, 2014

I rode early today to watch the fiesta procession and parade.  I decided that I will just bike elsewhere because everybody was drunk as early as 6 am;  I have seen these parades several dozen times.  They were unrowdy and uncontrolled groups.  They were shouting and laughing loud during the night.

So I rode straight to Pisong Kape and arrived there about 7:40.   It was a fast clip ride.  There I saw Master. He said he raced a couple of riders from Cardona to Morong which extended up to Pililla.

My bike ride today November 24, 2013 - fiesta for Christ the King

Angono, Rizal  PHL  |  November 24, 2013

I took the Antipolo route this morning.  I left at quarter to 7 and was in Antipolo Church by 730.  I took some pollution pictures along the way.  I attended the mass.  The priest said in his homily, in relation to the Tacloban and Bohol earthquake disaster, that Jesus Christ is bigger than any of the disaster and all our sorrows.  We should keep that in mind.

I left at a little past 8 and biked to Morong.  I met most of the Recyclists in Teresa town proper maybe doing 40 kph. They were in two groups.  I was in Morong by 8:40.   And met my lugaw an egg, costing P15.00.  Then biked back to Angono via Cardona.    Since I had no one with me, I took my own sweet time.  i was home by 11:00.  

                                            Graeat Cervelo bike with aero wheelset

                                           Plenty of kingfishers in Morong ricefields

                                         Heron birds  in a congress

                                  More heron birds

                                        Gift of God -->  jeepney, a polluter, really?

It is fiesta in Morong today, our breakfast and lunch are free

When we arrived at Manang Simple's  Lugawan at Maybancal Morong, her store was closed. However, they said, the food was free.  It was fiesta and as such, the food is on the house.  After coming from Pisong Kape, after a hard ride, we dropped by again for lunch (late merienda)

"Di ba dyahe?"  "Mas dyahe ang di sabayan ang mga kasama" So we ate anyway, even for dessert.

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
