July 29, 2012 Loop Ride





My original plan of taking a loop ride from my home place in QC - all the way to San Mateo via Batasan-San Mateo Road, Marikina via Marcos Hi-way, UP via Katipunan, then back home via Commonwealth, was aborted due to unpredictable weather condition last Sunday morning (trans: may bagyo!!!). Hehehehehe.

I just made a loop ride instead, based on the above map. Thus also had a route going back to IBP Road from Petron along Batasan-San Mateo Road.

Total distance traveled: 16.95 kms. based on my CycleDroid.


It was nevertheless a good ride on that wet/gloomy/stormy Sunday morning! :-)


Edit: Removed the zoom-able view as it's no longer viewable :(

TSP - Rizal's Tomb To Womb Ride


In commemoration of Dr. Jose P. Rizal's 151st birth anniversary, we at TSP (Tiklop Society of the Philippines) did a ride last June 23, 2012 that started from Luneta (or Rizal Park) [KM 0] all the way to his largest statue that is located in front of Calamba City Hall in Laguna.


Rizal's statue...




statue marker...

This was also my first out-of-town ride that covered approximately 100+ KM to & from, and all the way to my home place. Sort of a "century" ride as we may say...
