                      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

                                  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.
