There is a new bike park in Silang, Cavite.  The trail design was UCI inspired and the park will be the venue for the next UCI xc race this coming March 2016.

FIRST PERSON: When I tried biking around Quezon City

I can still remember the first time that I learned how to pedal a bike. My father and I were in a now-closed government-owned park in Pasay City; he would support my seven-year-old body and my bike while he was running and carefully pushing me, and then I would crash somewhere, and then repeat. Until one moment, he no longer had to support me because--finally!--I could already pedal my bike on my own.
It was amazing. Since then, I have always loved biking. So now, every time I go home in our house in Laguna on weekends, cycling would always be among the first things that I would do. I can only bike in Laguna because I simply just don’t bike here in Manila.

Old school peeps should be familiar with Dave Mirra from the cycling world. Former X-Games Champ. Rest in Peace.

Meron yung kaibigan kong dave mirra signatured bmx dati (sa kuya niya talaga yun pero iniwan sa kanya nung mag migrate) pero since di rin siya pala-bike sakin niya iniwan. Ibinenta ng gunggong kong pinsan sa halagang 4k yung bike. Yung nakabili naman ni repaint yung body sa kulay ng philippine flag. Tuwing maaalala ko, napapafacepalm talaga ako.

Anyways RIP dave.

That moment when i saw my son started balancing his bike was priceless. Worth all the bodyaches and lost sleep and taking 3 hour split breaks just to squeeze in a 45 min bike session. When he did it he started showing the other kids his acquired new skill with pride.
Just priceless.

natuto lang ako mag bike nung mga mid twenties or thirties  by myself in a mountain bike. 

nung bata ako tinuturan ako mag balance sa bmx natakot ako. hanggang sa di ako natuto mag bike.

I'm a fat dude, kaya fat bikes intrigue me..

So, which is better?

Mongoose Argus, or Rascal with upgraded parts?

Also, would being a 250-pound guy destroy the bearings and hubs?

haven't tried all Fat Bikes out there but Mongoose with Rockshox Bluto is for me a perfect combination on trails.

Unless you will do lots of jumps and drops, uphills,  which are very unlikely on fat bikes.  your bearings and hubs are fine.

2016 Le Tour hits the road

MANILA, Philippines – Frenchman Thomas Leibas will be a marked man when the seventh edition of Le Tour de Filipinas kicks off with Stage One on Thursday in Antipolo City and finishes in Lucena City.

Leibas and the 74 other riders in the 2016 edition of the race again presented by Air21 will be riding in what could be an entirely different terrain from the first six editions of the Le Tour organized by Ube Media Inc. headed by its president Donna Lina.

"I expect a tough ride from the other cyclists but I believe me and my team will be up to the challenge," said defending champion Leibas, who leads the Japan-based continental squad Bridgestone Anchor Cycling Team.

The race formally opened with a team managers meeting on Wednesday afternoon at the race headquarters in a resort in Antipolo City, with International Commissaire Peter Tomlinson of Australia leading the proceedings.

No winner in Le Tour de Filipinas opening stage as heavy traffic forces organizers to stop race

LUCENA — There was no winner in Stage One of the 7th Le Tour de Filipinas as organizers were forced to stop the race due to road conditions on Thursday in Quezon.

A stage was halted for the first time in seven editions of Le Tour de Filipinas as cyclists couldn’t continue racing through heavy traffic caused by repairs on a 500-meter stretch of road in Tiaong, Quezon.

Filipino riders John Mier and Ronnel Hualda of Kopiko Cebu Cycling Team as well as French defending champion Thomas Lebas of Bridgestone Anchor Cycling Team were part of the 31-man lead group before the race was stopped at the 117km mark, about 30 kilometers to the finish line of the Union Cycliste Internationale-sanctioned race presented by Air21.

“The decision was made to stop the race because it was out of control because of the long line of incoming vehicles tapos rough road pa ’yung right side of the road,” said Continental Commissaire Lorenzo Lomibao Jr.

kung dadaan sila Metro Manila including its suburb,  ndi na siguro feasible.  at sa disiplina ng mga driver meron tau, mas prone pa sa accident.
