Little Baguio blog
Last December 26, 2014, my neighbor showed me his property in Sitio Malapad Llavac Real, Quezon. The place is called Little Baguio.
This is frequented by MC riders and MTBs.
I was not interested in his invitation to join him before. But when I visited the place and experienced the cold winds, the fog, the vegetation, and the cool temperature. And sure the overlooking view of the Pacific Ocean and the Laguna Lake....Such great views.
All ready the speculators are trooping to the area especially the Chinese.
Km 89 in Lllavac via the Famy Real road has wild weather and challenging uphill climb (about 2 km of uphill climb). I would say that that is the most challenging part of the climb. However the challenging part of the Marcos Llavac is on the way back.
So two destinations at Km 89 in Real.

Too much traffic at NLEX exit to EDSA last night
Wheels of Happiness
After escaping several traffic jams in the entrance of NLEX in Angeles, and at exit in Bocaue, one encounters traffic jam at cloverleaf and guess what is the cause? The trucks, jeeps, tricyles and vendors lining up EDSA at Balintawak from the market up to Puregold.
It was not very late though and there were plenty of traffic enforcers. (Blue boys) and yet they looked boneback and toothless to enforce orders. Dahil magpapasko o napapaskuhan?
Hay saan napupunta taxes? Bakit pa my pulis, traffic enforcer, barangay at gobyerno
Certainly traffic jams coming from this ineptness and lack of sensitivity from other kababayan (dahil naghahanapbuhay) borders on callousness, lack of respect

What, bike ride on Christmas day?
Wheels of Happiness
Rizal Philippines December 26, 2014
There were plenty of bikers on the road yesterday. We cant throw off what the body wants to keep fit.
I biked solo up to Pililla (Pisong Kape) where I met Master E. I tried to reach Pisong Kape in one hour. It is still the same: one hour and ten minutes. Later Tito Fabay arrived and we went up to OL. There we had buko (only P20.00) We were there up to 9:00 and then we biked down. I had a bill changed to P5.00 coins and threw some children by the roadside for the spirit of Christmas. Katuwaan lang.
Then back at Pisong Kape. We met VM there. Had some talk. Unfortunately it rained and so we had to wait it out. There we learned that Julius Rivera, of Baytown met an accident at C6 and had serious head injuries at about 4 am when he went home yesterday from a party (he drunk too) much. He was an LBC driver mechanic at last Ronda. We rode to Baguio together on my first ever Angono to Baguio ride with Val
I kept pace with VM when we rode until Morong and Cardona. I lost him at ascent to LLDA (but not much). I could now sustain his speed and TT with him and not be dropped.
