December 19, 2012 BTW (Bike-To-Work)

 

Since I started bike-commuting last late November, I alternately use my 20'er Dahon Metro (named TresCinco) and my less than a month newly-acquired 2nd hand 16'er Enda Leo  (named Korenda).

And just yesterday, I used Korenda and was able to log the above route with approximate distance of 22 KMs.

Not bad for a daily (& nightly) exercise grind eh! :P

12-12-12 Ride Route

The route;

• Bike-To-Work (BTW) from home (Payatas) to office (along Quezon Avenue)
• Office to Ortigas Park, Ortigas Center, Pasig City
• TSP's WET route - Meralco Compound/Greenhills Shopping Center then back to Ortigas Park
• One bike round at PhilSports Arena (formerly Ultra )
• Then went home via Greenmeadows/Project 4/UP/Commonwealth Avenue/IBP Road

Total distance - approximately 44 kms.

One Tuesday Night...

at the UP Diliman Oblation Park...

Before going home from Bike-To-Work (BTW) routine last December 11, 2012...

TSP - Super Friday (Night) Ride

We started at UP Oblation (where we usually meet for LSD (Lingguhang Sikad sa Diliman), then proceeded to Rajah Sulayman Park to meet the MADlangbayan peeps (MAD - Monday After Dark). But prior on going to the said park, we met some TSPeeps at Welcome Rotonda/UDMC area.

After meeting the MADlangbayan peeps, we took time-out for dinner. Majority of us tried and ate the "tapang kabayo" that is the specialty of a diner owned by a colleagues brother-in-law. While some ate somewhere near the area.

After taking some rest (with photo-ops of course!), we then proceeded to The Fort's ROX to meet a few TNF'ers (Tuesday Night at the Fort). Then as usual, had some chitchats while taking some rest before heading to Ortigas Center Park to complete the 4th TSP nightly ride, the WET (Wednesday Evening Tagpuan).

That capped what we called the "Super Friday" that covered all the meet-up points of TSP's nightly ride.

Total distance kilometer logged on my CatEye cyclocomputer, approximately 50+ kms. :)

One Gloomy Tuesday Morning

At Luzon (Commonwealth Avenue) Flyover.

From this album.

I've been passing this flyover for quite a few times. The southbound portion is still closed to vehicular traffic. 

I've also longed to have a picture of me and/or my bike here, but haven't had the opportunity until this moment.

Mission accomplished! Or else, I wouldn't dare do it or will not have the guts or any more opportunity once it gets opened to vehicular traffic. :P
