Wheels of Happiness
Angono, Rizal Philippines | August 22, 2014
After the hill climb and visiting the Antipolo Church (I did not finish the mass) I rode to Transfiguration of Risen Christ at ML Quezon Avenue past Mission HIlls to condole with the family of Franciscos whose father died at the age of 77. Our Engr June Francisco was fortunate to be there at 8:00 am in the morning and welcomed me warmly. He introduced to me to his brothers and sis, some of whom came from Indonesia (as educators) His two sister happened to be teachers of my daughter in Assumption Antipolo. (Later my daughter became a colleague because she taught for a while in Assumption)
His father was an educator, a businessman, and who looks like he is brilliant. He constantly probed his children's critical thinking while having a meal.
Some mt. bikers from Mitsubishi arrived later. Gerry Yamsuan was there (and left his carbon fiber Ridley at home) Engr June used to be Mitsubishi as an automotive engineer - well trained in Engine and transmission tech in Japan. He works now at Sanden as Logistics Manager and Team Leader in Toyota Production System.
The other Recyclists came later when I left, Engr June texted me.
Vaya can Dios to June's father. God bless

Bike ride to Cabrera Road (Hilltop) yesterday August 19, 2014
Wheels of Happiness
Rizal Philippines | August 20 2014
I rode to Cabrera Road (Tikling going to Hilltop) yesterday. It was a holiday because it was foundation day of our town I have not biked for the last 3 weeks and I thought I would not be able to climb the steep hill. A truck lost its brakes and plowed into vehicles at the Manila East Road at the said road. I was looking for a building and unfortunately, distracted by the effort of hill climb, was not able to located this.
Jeff saw me and asked how come I was at that place.
I am surprised that I was able to negotiate the climb easily. I used 34 x 25 and very easily I reached Zuri. (3 hills summit later before descending and one final ascent going to Lores)
Later during the day, I told the people whom I met, that earlier in the morning, I climbed the Tikling road and they remarked I must be strong.
Maybe
