What are the possible routes from either Robinsons Galleria Ortigas or Shaw Blvd going to Makati? Specifically Century City Mall.
I've seen 1 or 2 riders during my bus rides along Edsa but I don't see myself using that route with a 29er.
Appreciate the help!

riders on EDSA have a death wish! this is what I would do. ako 'to ha, for your reference lang. Gale->ADB Ave->Sheridan->Pioneer(sa taas dumaan wag sa tunnel!)/or sa likod ng Robinsons (kung bukas pa yun)->sidewalk along EDSA Northbound->baba sa Guadalupe->tapos dun ako sa kalsada sa likod ng simbahan(ayoko sa JP Rizal)->tutumbukin ko na ang Rockwell (para coño)-> nasa Makati ka na nyan. di ko alam kung san yang Century Citi Mall (baka bago lang at di ko inabot?).

Used to work along pioneer at meron ako nakikita bikers dumadaan sa tunnel. I think this is the easier route crossing edsa although i would say na medyo delikado kasi madilim sa tunnel. Yung daan sa likod ng Robinson forum wala ako idea kung saan yun. I have never tried biking this area.

going through that dark tunnel is indeed the easier route, but maybe not as safe. may daan dati sa likod ng Rob na tagos sa Pioneer but my memory of that was years ago, nung ginagawa pa lang yung mga bagong office buildings sa likod ng Rob.

yung sa likod ng robinson's yeah gawa na and pwede dumaan.
about sa boni tunnel, may daya yan. i can't remember which pero the tunnel has slope. yung isa kailangan maintain ka ng speed, yung isa dehins mo alam na matulin ka na. i think i better check it out again. and yes, suki ako ng tunnel dati at nakakatakot kapag may kasabay kang motor, tindi ng echo sa loob.
it's a good and fast route kapag maluwag. don't pass there kapag traffic, na-stuck na ako dati habang nasa jeep at umuulan.
i'd rather take Shaw -> a little of edsa (if you want to dare it) -> libertad, now it gets tricky dahil 'di ko kabisado pangalan ng kalye, pero merong lusot yan papunta dun sa mcdo boni palengke papunta sa bagong tulay na ang labas mo so rockwell na. konti lang dumadaan dun halos puro private vehicles kasi salubungan yung tulay.
from rockwell, pwede ka mag Kalayaan -> Makati Ave.

So I did my first bike to work today, I took a long but familiar road: Shaw blvd(the high road) >JRU/Kalentong >StaAna >Century City (Along jpRizal and Makati ave). I still dont know the streets.
Coming from Rizal (SM City Taytay) it was a 22-23km ride. Makulimlim kaya I took the chance to ride.
I will scout the given routes the next free days.

From Balagtas st it was a smooth sailing ride, though it was morning (5:30~am from there). Definitely safer than going thru edsa to guadalupe (tried it once...twice, during the holidays) and shorter than taking a huge u-turn from JRU -> Sta. Ana -> Century City

Appreciate the help! how about ortigas westbound, turn to wilson, traverse the streets 'till you get to shaw/manda. if you're familiar with manda, you can go through the side streets once you cross shaw blvd 'till you get to makati mandaluyong bridge. once you cross jp rizal, you'll only be a few more pedal strokes from your destination.
