This post went to La Union on business trip via bus and surprise the bus after stopping at Dau terminal, went through MacArthur highway and this post recalled the accident I had several years back on the way to Baguio City ride. An MC which was unregistered driven by a youngster without license slammed into the right side (illegally overtaking from the right) of the bike, a Pinarello Dogma with a Bora wheelset, hitting the carbon wheelset. I and my bike scattered along the highway. Unfortunately the justice palakasan system freed the youngster who caused the accident. Despite the fact that the Public Officer were threatened by a Mun Council Sec who was with us, a lawyer.
Fortunately for me, I was able to continue on the damaged bike. But eventually my bike wheelset gave way and had to be replaced.
I now fear long trips due to this incident.
