After almost a year of not riding, I wiped the dust off my bike and off I went... The PMTBers: me, Carlo and Chito my bike (probably one of the heaviest ones there) The sea of bikes ... and we're off!!! enjoying at the second lap... transition Carlo finishing 2nd in his age group (20-29) I want one of these someday... The winners! The shirt says it all. It was a great race with Carlo finishing 2nd in 20-29, Chito 1st in 50-59 and me 4th in 30-39... not bad. ;D

At 54 - I just enjoy finishing the race - if there is a medal then it will be the icing to the cake. but the race itself is the cake. Meeting new friends like Carlo and Marvs is the ice cream to top it all. While i strived and gritted my teeth in pain due to cramps - Marvs and Carlo were zooming by - great to see the strength of youth. I congratulate them for a good race and wish them their medals and trophies in the future. as for me, no challengers.....he, he, he.... thus the medal. i was the oldest participant and i am getting used to it. bottom line - we had a GREAT time. I look forward to joining them at the AMCI Offroad Dua. Let's join us - the more, the manyer safe riding guys.....

Congrats Chito, Carlo & Marvs.
Thought about joining it too but it conflicted with my Trail Running at La Mesa.

Thanks guys! We had great fun. I was hoping to see more PMTBers there but there was a lot happening over the weekend. I hope to see more of the PinoyMTBiker idols in the next events. Most likely it's the AMCI for me too. I hope to see real PinoyMTBiker racers there like Mountg. ;D

yey! salamat talaga kay God, was able to finish - and get podium position pa *big smile* Well, again, was able to make habol in the bike part. 3rd over-all na sana! Over-all winner-which is named Carlo rin (Carlo Pedragozo, or something like that, hehe) was only 1 lap ahead! The 3 leaders I was chasing in the bike were, unfortunately, far better runners. So off they went as if they have never ran or biked the past hour. And lost to another ultra-runner in the last lap of the run (ka-age group ko pala, so the 2nd place). But im still quite happy, ecstatic even, because the competition was even, and the race track was so cool! RUnning and biking inside a mall! THank you rin for the company- kuya marvs (pictures are great! we have shots together pala! hehe) and sir chito (ever the encourager- but were the one really encouraged by you)! cheers to PinoyMTBiker! Sikat nanaman ang group!

Great Job Guys! Hey Marvs, have you lost weight? when do we ride again? Eiwol - I lost the 10 lbs I gained from my wife's pregnancy. Carlo - Nice meeting you. I'm sure we'll get to meet more PinoyMTBiker in the upcoming events.

Yup, that's me!
Hi Uly! Marky now works at the same company as us, saw him about a week ago. I normally see Chito on run events. Even the cyborgs. I think I saw you one time too. Tuklas might do the AMCI duathlon together. See you there!
