This is the Picasa album slideshow of photos taken during the Bisikleta Iglesia.  They are some of the most numerous taken, only second to the Baguio ride and very impressive too.  Thanks to Richard for the nice pictures.  It takes great skill to take this photos and Richard produced so many of them.  How I wish this writer would be as good as Richard.

This is at the main featured post;  however, this post gives a permanent link in case you may want to see/preserve the link

I love these pictures.  Let us keep them dear to our hearts.

      The peloton near  the convention center,  the Saguinsins at the paceline; Gerry, Ado and Archie behind

I notice that bike ride pictures are often viewed, and by many people.  But to take these pictures safely you need another photographer in a vehicle to take these picture.  So we often attempt to take the pictures ourselves which is often dangerous.  Richard Ang is the master of this dangerous craft.

Richard took pictures that look very powerful and that really presents the Recyclists as they are:  strong and fast. (Self serving praises)

Thank you Richard.

I LOVE THESE PICTURES!

Assembly at Sacred Heart parish 6:00 am

                      Glad to see you again Insan Smith for favoring us with your presence

It is Maundy Thursday again and as part of the tradition, the Recyclist made its bike ride meaningful by doing the traditional annual "Bisikleta Iglesia"  (adaptation of Visita Iglesia)  The plan was to visit seven churches:

l.  Bugarin chapel
2.  Pililla Church
3.  Tanay Church
4.  Baras Church
5.  Morong Church
6.  Cardona Church
7.  Angono Church

Assembly was at 6:00 am at the Sacred Heart Church, Class A gulaman uniform (the latest)

Those who were in attendance:   Luis, Master E, VM, Richard, Armin, Archie,  Jayjay, Joel, Jorgeus biker, Jeff, Ben, Smith, Gerry Ktops, Weng, Angel,

Not here:   Sec Noe, Choco2, 7 days, Papa Ric, 

The Binangonan church visit was skipped, instead the Angono church would be visited.

One year ago, Cataps crashed and broke the fork of his bike near LLDA;  today, he merely had a flat tire in Morong.  Nothing spectacular happenned today.  God is kind.


1. At the Bugarin Chapel  9:00 am

                    Recyclists praying at Bugarin chapel:   Luis, Angel, Engr Junne, Ben, Gerry

                                       Picking up the bike, ready to leave

                                  A little angel watches, Ado lifts bike

            The bikes had to be lifted because there is no road to the chapel;  Joel at the foreground

                               That ascent is steep;  we had to walk up;  Weng fell

2 Pililla Mary Magdalene church 

We visited this church early this March because the Nazareno was here.

                                    Great Looking Recyclists!
