Just would like to share my wife's first ride to Maarat. She tackled the wall like she was biking for months. She rested three times and I was surprised that she still wanted to push through to Giant after the Wall. Some pics. Her first rest after the first z-bend at the wall. Finally, Ka Tobias with energy to spare Navigating through the second climb at Timberland Triumphant at Giant store Enjoying the view with ECRider Some friends we met along the way - Fiona and Gorio (I hope I remember their names right; if not please correct me) Ride EC

Just would like to share my wife's first ride to Maarat. She tackled the wall like she was biking for months. She rested three times and I was surprised that she still wanted to push through to Giant after the Wall. EC brad So that was you and your pretty wife conquering the wall. I was the rider with ghorio and fiona up the WALL. Congrats brad., I wish my wife would have the passion for biking...but wait no, maybe no, she'll find out about my rigs. ;D ;D ;D Safe ridin' Mr & Mrs. EC.

Everyone, thanks daw from my wife.
It was nice having familiar faces and new faces as we went up the trials.
Re: the pictures - I can view it form the thread. Maybe there are times when the url is not functioning well. Else, will try to re-post it when I get to a faster internet connection.
MrsM - I only use sunblock on my face nowadays. As you probably noticed from my attire when we were at giant "Balot na Balot"... ;D ;D ;D I even had to custom make a neck and nape cover. This also doubled as a dirt/mud protector when biking in muddy areas (as I experience on my way to Sta. Ines falls).
This is just the first part of my installment project. My next project would be to have my kids try out the sport as well. Only problem would be the rig. Kinda expensive to give each his/her own rig.
Oh well, slowly but surely...
Ride EC

For those who couldn't see the posted pictures, I have attached them again. I find this odd coz I can see the pictures even now when I access this thread. Maybe because I organized my photobucket files after I posted in the thread. The pics again.... Her first rest after the first z-bend at the wall. Finally, Ka Tobias with energy to spare Navigating through the second climb at Timberland Triumphant at Giant store Enjoying the view with ECRider Some friends we met along the way - Fiona and Ghorio Ride EC
