Ligaw Ride x Camp at Singalong Nature Campsite Hill Rizal

May tiwala ka ba kay universe?

Ito yung ride na gusto ko na magbackout kasi daming aberya. And as I get older, I dont really like looking for danger and thrill anymore. Planned to go to San Ysiro Falls in Calawis Rizal, tapos trek and camp at Singalong Nature Campsite Hill, but ran into different challenges - from missing helmet, closed roads, bike failure to getting lost in what seemed like an uphill maze. Kinakabahan na'ko because the last time I experienced a series of challenges and didnt listen to the universe, I got into an accident and a dangerous situation 

Pero ayun, di naman si universe yung tipong papabayaan tayo basta basta, budol nga lang :))
Here's to more budol rides na malalampasan natin in the years ahead! Padayon!

Rizal Loop with Petroglyphs & Angono Street Murals

Rizal is beautiful. You can bask in nature, history, arts, and good food. Take a friend with you, doesnt that sound like a great day already! 

The route I took for Rizal Loop is Antipolo via Sumulong, Teresa, Morong, Cardona, Binangonan (Petroglyphs), Angono (Street Art), Taytay, and then Cainta. 

Here's the Strava link (sadly this started in Binangonan coz I failed to start recording from my start point, and only noticed when I had lunch) - https://www.strava.com/activities/4461593410

Ride responsibly!

Tagaytay Ride - Ang Tunay na Malakas Nagtutulak

Manila Tagaytay Bike Ride via Aguinaldo Highway Cavite 

There are 2 routes you can take going to Tagaytay 

First is via Aguinaldo Highway in Cavite, and second is via Sta Rosa Nuvali - Revpal. Aguinaldo Highway is less steep but has a lot of vehicles, longer, and is polluted and hot in the mornings onwards. Nuvali is more shaded and has nice views, but it's about 26km of uphill. 

This is the loop I took - Manila - Aguinaldo Highway - Tagaytay - Revpal - Nuvali - Manila - https://www.strava.com/activities/4437417063

Laguna Loop with camping at Pangil River Ecopark

I biked to Tarlac last year (around 100km, flat terrain), naubos yung willpower ko. After nun, ayoko munang magrides - 1 week masakit buong katawan ko. HAHAHA
 
This time I tried Laguna Loop with 1250m elevation at 180+ km. Proud to say walang masakit sa katawan ko and I am actually sooo excited for a next ride already! Ganun pala yun. Pwede palang sakto lang yung challenge for you :))

So slow down, wild one. There's no need to match other people's pace or expectations. Ride at your own pace.
