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

                        The carbon fiber wheel of VM was damaged; the damage affected the braking

                            VM could not ride the Colnago anymore because of the damaged wheel

We had two casualties yesterday in the ride to Tagaytay city:   VMs carbon fiber wheels and a fellow driver who showed signs of heat stroke:  he vomitted after reaching Tagaytay.

As for VM hitting a MC, there could be no expert on this. VM rear ended an MC near Sucat when the young rider turned left without signalling:  hand or light.  His front wheel got stuck between the wheel and muffler and he could utter was "Sorry po" VM landed on his rear seat and his bike stuck up with the rear end up.   He had a flesh wound at the shin and it could be painful
