Weekend Rides

Newbie Killer!

“We’ll be riding in La Mesa this Sunday. Find me a bike.”
My wife suddenly blurted that out last week. I had to make sure I was awake. I had to make sure she was awake.
I looked at her funny. Then she explained. One of her college friends agreed to try mountain biking. It will be [...]

Call of the wind(ing tracks)

Posted by on Mon, Feb 22, 2010 at 3:17 pm

This is a delayed post, and just a short video of a part of our ride last Feb. 7, 2010 (video at the bottom of this post). It was an easy and light ride, but the call of the winding single track that leads to the “Puno ng Malipay” (“Tree of Malipay”) was just too [...]

“Compensating”?

Posted by on Fri, Feb 19, 2010 at 3:31 am

The day my wife finally rode with me on a loaned mountain bike (thanks Bong!) was the first time I’ve ridden the Nuvali mountain bike tracks, though I’m pretty sure we weren’t able to ride the complete tracks as we were adjusting to match my wife’s riding level.
But as we were done with the first [...]

This was on Valentine’s Day 2010, the first time my wife, Jam, tried mountain biking (on a loaned mountain bike; thanks Bong!). With us on this ride were Ian (fellow Backout Boys member) and his wife.
Ian knew we had to adjust to make this day’s ride enjoyable for my wife. Lei, his wife, was just [...]

From 4×4 to 2×1 – easy group ride!

At the Vitara Club of the Philippines Christmas party a few friends who also ride mountain bikes requested we organize a 4×4 Philippines mountain bike ride for us to get together again on our 2-wheeled rigs.
We decided to set the date 3 weeks away from when we first talked about it. Dec. 27, 2009, was [...]

South Cycle gap-jumping tutorials in Malipay

Posted by on Mon, Jan 4, 2010 at 12:10 pm

January 3, 2010, I invited an old friend, Chris, who’s fairly new to mountain biking to visit us and try out the Malipay trails. Doc Riz & I have plotted a newbie-friendly route so as not to give Chris a hard time in the trails.
It being a Sunday the usual weekend riders were at the [...]

Cardiac Attack, an uphill mountain bike race

Both cars are in the repair shop. I thought one would be ready in time for the race. Guess not.
As soon as I found out about the car not being available for the race I sent a text message to Togs. I need a ride to the race.
His Mitsubishi Adventure can comfortably fit 3 persons, [...]
