TSP - Raiders of the Lost Ark 2 Ride


...and this is my 3rd time to go to this historical site. First was last August 18, 2012 then the second was last April 5, 2013.

As usual, allow me to share some snaps as we go along the way;

Calinawan Cave Ride



http://www.strava.com/activities/112308663

Aside from my Tanay Parola (+ Tanay Cathedral) and Daranak Falls bike rides, added to my "bucket list" is this Calinawan Cave bike travel/exploration...

This time we were 6 (bike buddies from TSP namely - Alvin Lim, Angelo Amparo, Chris Alvarez, Eli "Winter Knives" Chacon, Phi Añez and myself) who conquered the scorching afternoon heat on the way to the said cave.

Original plan is to also include Daranak Falls but wasn't able to do so due to time constraint.

Again, allow me to share some snaps as we go along the way;

The "cavers"...

The guide said that the rock formation on the right looks like a face. And I think it's true!

Rock formations...

Shining... Shimmering... Splendid!

Complete album set..

This bike travel not only explored what we saw on the road, rather the history behind Calinawan Cave. And surely we will go back as what our tour guide Jhepoy said, that they'll start opening levels 3 & 4 of the cave comes March.

Bulalo Ride


Ride day : 18January2014
Total distance : 66.4 KMs.

An un-official ride of my group, TSP (Tiklop Society of the Philippines).

It was named "Bulalo Ride" as we just planned to bike ride to Mang Vic's Bulaluhan and of course, eat bulalo! :)

Sierra Madre (+ Daranak Falls) Ride


Ride day - 02 November 2013

Wanted to have a loop via that Sierra Madre route, but due to time constraints, opted to do bi-modal as it's already past 5PM when we went out of Daranak Falls. For safety reasons also, we don't want to take risks climbing the Teresa uphill stretch. Instead, me and Phi decided to alight at Antipolo rotonda while our other companion Eli (aka Winter Knives) went straight and will alight at EDSA Central (Crossing).

From Antipolo, I still biked till I reached home.

Please allow me to share some snaps...
