Singletracks galore! Slippery mud, stones, sand, a nerve wracking crossing through the irrigation canal bridge, a couple of funny spills and one mud dive, yesterday was one helluva ride ;D! Thanks so much to Bud for showing us one of his fave all weather trail, it was really fun and challenging! Thanks also to Jaymz for cooking up the ride, it was lovely meeting your wife Aimee And to Dino, we'll make an addict of you yet Till the next one guys!

Mr. "SpongeBud" would best know this fun trail loop. We went past the Avilon Zoo then entered into singletracks. It was a longer, circuitous route of an otherwise short road (?) ride. Thanks again, Bud!
Thanks for the photos, Jaymz! And it was fun to learn some trivia on rock climbing and Wawa's history. And, thank you for your rescue-gone-bad at the muddy part. Should've gotten a shot or two of us there. Would've been hilarious!
Nice ride, everyone! :-)

Thanks alot Jaymzee baby Eeew!!! ;D ;D ;D Some shots to make my day Strong riders, couples ride and the celebration afterwards. Anybody tried riding the bridge/irrigation canal? I see strong couple MrsM and Matt On singlespeed again? OMG Edgar, Rumor has it that only one mountainbiker has ever ridden through that bridge, the legendary Avol of Montalbikers But there was one PinoyMTBiker member, someone who calls himself "freeman" who tried riding through, was pedalling super fast, but due to the cheers and and shouts of fellow riders/onlookers, he stopped midway and lost his concentration and walked the rest of the way. Tama ba James ;D But that was long ago, maybe now the freeman was able to conquer the bridge na.

Thanks Mich, Id love to ride that bridge Some of the guys who did killer loop didnt know that the other side of the trail where the grass are as tall or even taller the the rider is a deep ravine. Meyrick can attest to this. ( He's been there, done that, actually fell) and they rode it. What we dont see wont scare us ;D It's all in the nerve, as you said nerve wracking ;D Ive practiced on a smaller or narrower obstacle, foot high leeves, canals even the paint on the road and it caught on me. You panic, you lose control. I'd love to ride the bridge next time. Hayy! I miss our trails! Thanks for the info.

I witnessed one brave PinoyMTBiker guy who pedalled through that irrigation bridge but unfortunately we don't have a picture to prove it coz we thought that he was just joking then suddenly we saw him na pedalling already...GALING SOBRA!!! IDOL!!! I know some fellow PinoyMTBiker's also saw how he did it He's no other than...Sir [glow=red,2,300]MILO[/glow] ;D
