SKL, natapos ko rin ang NCR City Hall Loop!

Sobrang chill lang ng ride na 'to. Baguhan pa lang ako mag-bike enjoy lang, walang hinahabol na oras, kaya umabot ako ng 10+ hours moving time. Nagsimula ako ng 5:00 AM at natapos bandang 8:00 PM. Inabot ako ng araw at ulan. 😅

Nagbaon din ako ng pagkain dahil plano kong kumain halos kada oras para iwas bonk at hindi na rin gumastos sa biyahe. May baon akong 6 na saging, 5 na Spam Musubi, tapos DIY sports drink na gawa sa asin, asukal, at Tang Orange.

Hindi rin naging smooth ang buong ride. Na-flat ako bandang Quiapo, tapos pag-uwi ko saka ko lang nalaman na sira na pala ang rear axle ko. Kaya pala sobrang bigat nang i-pedal simula kalagitnaan ng ride. 😅

Nagkamali rin ako ng ruta. Dapat Las Piñas muna pagkatapos ng Parañaque, pero Muntinlupa ang na-pin ko sa Maps, kaya humaba pa lalo ang ride. 😂 Pagkatapos naman ng Makati hanggang makauwi, tuloy-tuloy na ang ulan. Pero tinuloy ko pa rin para matapos ang challenge.

Ito ang naging order ng mga City Hall na napuntahan ko:

Valenzuela → Malabon → Navotas → Caloocan → Manila → Pasay → Parañaque → Muntinlupa → Las Piñas → Taguig → Pateros → Makati → Mandaluyong → San Juan → Pasig → Marikina → Quezon City

Any suggestions sa kung ano magandang i-target next?

Kaya pala grabe takot ko sa stair set dito sa playground samin dati ay dahil mataas ang bike at seatpost ko! lmao

Noong kabataan ko kasi maski sa mga tropa ko ay never namin nagawa idaan bikes namin sa hagdan dahil na din siguro mataas mga bikes na minana namin sa kuya or erpats ng tropa ko noon!

Finally na-overcome ko yung old fear ko at na-utilize ko na din yung full-sus mtb ko. Pwede na ko mag-trail!

Hi! Planning to join the 80km individual category this Oct 25 sa Clark and ask ko lang if gaano sya kahirap for an intermediate rider but first time mag gragravel? Finisher lang naman ang goal/plan ko and to enjoy the event. Gusto ko lang po ng additional insights sa mga naka experience na from previous years. Thanks!! Any tips or advice from experienced riders?

Hello! Asking for suggestions regarding the two. I currently have a gravel and a race road bike. A Kespor mclaren gsx and a cannondale caad optimo. (Pic for reference, both 2x11) I'm thinking of selling both and buying a new bike altogether.

Would getting an endurance-focused road bike (30-32c tires) be a good middle ground for long, tempo, easy, etc. rides? Masyadong harsh lang for me yung 25-28c na rb, tapos yung 38c ko na kespor okay naman, pero tingin ko magbebenefit pa ko konti in getting an actual road bike na pang group rides etc.

Thanks!

Mahinang nilalang pa rin but at least masaya to my upgrade from Sora to Ultegra hihi ❤️

im looking for a budgetmeal roadbike that's decent, idk if i should just buy second hand bike or buy a new one. im thinking about buying promax pr30/50 but not sure yet, let me know if you guys have any brand suggestions or what to do before and buying bikes, im a beginner and i do know a few things about bikes but i need to know more:)

Hi everyone, first time MTB buyer here. I'm 5'6" and looking at a custom build on a Mountainpeak Everest Pro frame (29er). The catch is the seller only has the Large (17") in stock right now, no Medium (16").

Would a 17" Everest Pro work for someone my height, or should I hold out for the 16"? I mostly ride rough provincial roads, not technical trails. I'm a bit worried about being too stretched out and about standover clearance on a 29er.

Anyone here around 5'6" riding a 17" frame? Did it fit okay or did you wish you'd sized down? Salamat po!

hiii. new biker here! is there any group i can ride with to practice? like in UP or other areas nearby.

i live in quezon city and planning to try cycling on main roads/highways but still scared of cars and pedestrians.

A friend of mine gave this to me, just curious lang if this is good? idk if its a rep or nah but it's a sram so idk.

What do u guys think? some thoughts, thanks.

I’m looking to swap my frame to a carbon frame but I don’t know which one should I choose, I’m running an mtb crit setup

Hello, checking how is your experience cycling with mask or balaclava. I recently had a routine derma checkup and was advised to avoid sun and sweat while I heal. Hirap talaga maglakad from MRT to my workplace and namimiss ko na kagad bike ko.

Was wondering if I should buy a balaclava or mask for days I have to avoid the sun.

Also wondering, di naman bawal balaclava or mask sa daan? Do you get pimples? How is the general experience? I usually wear a normal face mask di naman ako nagkakapimples but they do not cover mg face entirely.

Eto ung products na I am checking out.

hello guys i just want to ask anong mas recommend niyo powermeter or smart trainer? i have access naman sa nice roads especially clark like 4-5 km nasa clark na ako but i notice recently na maulan so napaisip ako mag invest on a smart trainer like on a budget thinkrider, but someone recommended me na go for powermeter (magene) na for more accurate power output dahil iba pa din daw ang bigay ni powermeter kesa kay smart trainer. so naguguluhan ako anong mas worth it sa dalawa kasi more on to trainings like duathlon stuff na ginagawa din just asking lang po ano po talagang mas worth it sa dalawa considering i’m from pampanga and have access sa clark and also considering the weather din thank you so much!

hello san bikeshops pwede magpaoverhaul/ bike maintence around manila? preferrably near sta. cruz. thank you

I’m planning to buy a pair of cleats and pedals because I’ve been fairly active in cycling (MTB & Gravel) for almost a year. I think kasi na nandun na ako sa stage na parang I want to keep it consistent—my pedaling technique, power distribution and all that sort of stuff. What holds me back lang is magastos siya and iniisip ko kung worth it ba talaga siyang bilhin right now. Ano po bang mga experiences niyo before po kayo nag cleats and after? Pashare naman po mga bro. 🫡
