Magandang Umaga, Lucban!! Tama po, sa isang iglap ay narito na po ako sa Bayan ng Lucban. Nagkaroon ng emergency na kailangang asikasuhin, bitbit ko ang ilang importanteng dokumento sa pag-aasikaso ng amilyar. At ito, kasalukuyang nagmumuni-muni kung sisimulan ko na ba mag-workout. Nakapaglinis na ng isang banyo mula nang magising ng alas-quatro ng umaga. Mayroon pa akong tinapay para sa almusal, natira sa baon ko sa biyahe. Isang impromptu long drive, medyo na-miss ko yung adrenaline rush ng pag-overtake sa mga bantulot na driver sa zigzag na nakabuntot sa mabagal na truck o kaya tricycle. Kapag madilim na kasi, predictable na ang mga kasalubong na sasakyan. Hinahabol ko rin na hindi ako masaraduhan ng bayan, dahil hindi ko tiyak ang lagay ng curfew. Basta hinabol ko lang na makarating ng Bayan bago mag-alas otso ng gabi, bilang alas quatro na ng hapon ako naka-alis ng Marikina. Ok, tama na ang muni-muni. Sige na nga, mag-workout na nga ako. Nagsisisi ako ng slight na hindi ko binitbit yung workout mat ko. Proteksyon din sa lower back ko yun. Oh well! Mamaya naman ay sasaka pa ako sa aming linang upang mabisita kung tuloy ba ang may pasinaya doon. ❤🧡💛💚💙💜 #HelloLucban #mootravels #solobaliw (at Lucban, Quezon Province) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCCPL_Qha_gu65vYeg_rPKXooKRw5L-gCrshfE0/?igshid=bcqwg2srs43g

21June2020 Day 99 - GCQ Sunday Morning Ride Took my newly adopted baby, Skannondale for a spin. It's my first regular ride since the lockdown. Ni errand, just pure biking bliss. She is my first official mountain bike. Ska's first Moma is @ogenki_jeska. I am so happy to be the one to aquire her. Pre-Covid, we're able to ride around Baguio and took a leisure ride to Wawa Dam in Montalban. We're still looking forward to the day when we can finally hit the trails! ❤🚴‍♀️🧡🚴‍♀️💛🚴‍♀️💚🚴‍♀️💙🚴‍♀️💜 #Skannondale #lagalag #bikeadventure #solobaliw (at Marikina River) https://www.instagram.com/p/CB4eUtCBJlReqpIjR_x2i9B9r2lsDRwuFsp5IE0/?igshid=npuqdhr7z20r

Morning Ride: Happy 37th at the Festival of Learning 19April2018 Spent my day doing what I love: morning bike ride to Norzagaray. Heard the morning mass at St. Peter Basilica, to give thanks for my 37 years of existence and to ask for guidance as I continue on with my life's journey. I added meaning to my day by sharing my time with the kids at the Norzagaray NHA resettlement housing, hosted by ATD Fourth World. I donated copies of the book: "Hale hale Hoy!" a compilation of Filipino riddles, songs and games, with illustrations by members of my org, Ang Ilustrador ng Kabataan (Ang InK!). The books are for their Street Library in Pandacan and North Cemetery. I also had one copy for the community kids to share. Part of the activities during the Festival of Learning are storytelling and some craft projects. I assisted during the crafts activity, and witnessed how simple tasks like this bring simple pleasure to the kids. While learning some skills like following direction and expressing their creativity. It's my first time to take part in ATD Fourth World's initiative. Hopefully I can also do volunteer work here in Pandacan and the North Cemetery. ❤🚲💙🚲💚🚲💛🚲💜 #HAPPY37TH #ATDFourthWorld #FestivalofLearning #ushiyuri #DahonVitesseD7 #tiklopadventures #solobaliw #BulacanBiking (at Barangay Bitungol, Norzagaray Bulacan)

Maundy Thursday's Bisikleta Iglesia 2018, Old Manila It's my first time to do a solo Bisikleta Iglesia, and part of the challenge and adventure is exploring the century old churches of Old Manila with my folding bike Ushi Yuri. I had a pleasure of visiting 14 of the beautiful churches of Manila, each boasting with rich history and religious art. Eight of which, I visited for the first time. Exploring Manila on two wheels gave me the liberty to weave through traffic with ease. Doing it with a folding bike allowed me to bring it inside the church with me and not worry about bike parking. It was a solemn solo baliw ride, braving the unexpected of what Old Manila has instored for me. Passing through the various streets from posh Intramuros to the grunge of Tondo, there was only one theme as people from all walks of life observe and celebrate the Holy Week. It gave me a glimpse of what it's like to be a Catholic, and how this religion embraces all. Taking whatever is thrown to its face, braving through the imperfections of humanity and just be accepting regardless of what's taboo or not. I've had a glimpse of the many faces of the Filipino Catholic, best experienced in Old Manila. #ushiyuri #DahonVitesseD7 #tiklopadventures #solobaliw #BisikletaIglesia2018 #OldManila #ChurchesofManila #CenturyOldChurchesofManila (at Archdiocesan Shrine of Nuestra Señora De Guia)

Lagalag ng DRT Norzagaray-Angat-DoñaRemediosTrinidad-SanRafael May segments sa DRT!! Nasilayan ang bukangliwayway sa Angat. Naglagalag sa mga liblibang kaparangan ng Doña Remedios Trinidad. Binaybay ang kabukiran ng San Rafael. Umaawit ang puso habang nagsusumigaw and mga binti at hita. Pagpag taba! Hahaha!!! ❤🚲🚲💙 #ushiyuri #DahonVitesseD7 #tiklopadventures #solobaliw #BulacanBiking #bimodal #lagalag (at Doña Remedios Trinidad, Bulacan)

Lost in Bulacan Jump starting my bike year, my first official long ride for 2018 after recovering from dry cough! I seeked refuge through the rice fields and fishing rivers clearing my mind and quenching my soul. Savoring the fresh country side air, wrapped in amihan breeze. The weather forecast predicted it well, with partly sunny skies and pleasant bike weather. Chanced upon the Eiffel tower replica by the road side of Tigbe and gave a prayer of thanksgiving at Our Lady of Lourdes Grotto in San Jose del Monte. My legs were greeted by bursts of climbs and rolling hills, burning as they shout for joy after conquering every bit of climb along the route. A real great way to start the year and celebrate life! 🚲💗🚲💘🚲💝🚲 #ushiyuri #DahonVitesseD7 #tiklopadventures #solobaliw #balikloob #BulacanBiking #LostinBulacan #longride #biketouring #TiklopSocietyofthePhilippines (at Sta.

13Jan2018 2018 Maiden Ride, Marikina Chillax Sa wakas nakapadyak din. Pawala na ang pesteng ehem, pero hinay hinay lang kaya chillax sa ilog ang drama. Sarap na sarap sa pagpadyak habang yinayakap ng hanging amihan. Bike-ibig!!❤🚲🚲💙 #ushiyuri #DahonVitesseD7 #tiklopadventures #solobaliw #MarikinaBiking #balikloob (at Marikina River)

Riverpark Amihan Chillax I was aiming for a longer morning spin, but my rear tire got flat just from my fisrt 2km! Hahah!! Talk about luck, huh. Great thing I had some help patching my tire. Nakalusot sa rough road ng Maragondon, only to be pinched by a measly pothole. ❤🚲🚲💙 #ushiyuri #DahonVitesseD7 #tiklopadventures #solobaliw #MarikinaBiking #balikloob (at Marikina Riverpark)
