4 kms to town plus 6 kms to Barrio Binulasan = 10kms more

loloyd wrote on Nov 5, '08

ang tibay naman nito. paano ba mag prepare para sa ganitong fun-sided torture? ilang gilas ba ang kailangan baunin? kita ko sa wikimapia yung layo ng infanta. e kahit naka-motorized vehicle ay nakakapagod i-byahe iyon!

saludo po!

loloyd wrote on Nov 5, '08

parang nakita ko na ang commercial na ito a. i remember it was an ad for... viagra. :-P

loloyd wrote on Nov 5, '08

sa infanta po ba ito?

loloyd wrote on Nov 5, '08

kailan kaya magkakaron ng big group infanta ride? yung tipong walang official SAG vans para mas mura ang pag organize. pero may mga volunteer/family vans for support. wishful thinking lang.

karenkix wrote on Nov 5, '08

hi! Tuloy-tuloy lang na pagbibike araw-araw; paakyat-akyat ng Antipolo; at wika nga ni Aneka (anak ko) " A lot of will-power and a good sense of humor" Si Aneka, backed by her youth, ay basta nalang pumadyak :)

Sa Barrio Binulasan, Infanta, Quezon - ang ganda no?

Our road trip last Friday was done w/o SAG kaya menos gastos.
I know PMTB will be biking to Infanta this Saturday... :)
Organize tayo ng ride - I want to do it again :)

PinoyMTBiker inc. me made it to INFANTA! we took off @ BK Marcos Hway at about 4:45am then arrived in Infanta at about 1pm. the halimaws took the bus for fear of biking at night (sounds funny) some brave souls braze the dark skies and they were able to padyakoldawey back to Manila at 11pm. I proceeded to Famy due to overpadyak and stayed with the Lagloopers in a resort in Pangil. kaya nyo? hehe!Ü
