Tayo na sa #Antipolo; tayo na sa #Hinulugang Taktak

Wheels of Happiness

Rizal Philippines    |  January 7, 2015



As I biked at the Taktak Road,  in search of a nice church daw, I chanced upon the new civil works at the Hinulugang Taktak. There are new fences and the road has been widened.  That is the good news.

The bad news is that Taktak is severely polluted.  I do not like the smell of the water and there are plenty of bubbles (soap suds from detergents?

Smith would have raffled our names to join his deceased brother if Recyclists did not come

Real Cyclists

Angono, Rizal  PHL  May 12, 2013


                               The Recyclists condoled with Smith on the death of bro Sabas

We visited the wake of the brother of Smith (Rommel) Unidad, Sabas, who died last Thursday of blood clot after jogging during these hot weather last Monday, after our bike ride to OL at Bugarin, Pililla.

 He just did walk before;   this was his first time to walk.  His sister Wilma a nurse, who came home from Australia, that based on autopsy, he had blood clot on his ankle (secondary to just discovered diabetes)

Smith joked:

1.  Since he is younger than Sabas, he might be next in line;

2.  If the Recyclists did not come today, or anytime before the burial, he would draw lots as to who would be next.

What was funny was that Smith prepared cold drinks, Zesto and bread, rice cakes for the hungry and tired cyclists.  It did not look like a visit to a wake.  (No one viewed Sabas)

I was in the wake last night.

After passing the hat and giving our contributions, we left at 12.00


  Smith, (2nd from right) as usual jokes despite their mourning;  great refreshments for the Recyclists.

                                 The Recylists came in full force about to leave.

About the same period last year, May 20, 2013, the Reyclists condoled with our family.  Our brother Sixto passed away after battling colon cancer.
