How I wish our Congress(men) would do the same..... At the very least put up bike racks at their premises and be an excellent example... Or even better, take up biking and get rid of their SUV's, including those of their nasty & arrogant support vehicles. Taken at Portland, USA.

Anyone knows any Congressman or LGU official in QC or Pasig or nearby environs who can help us push for more bike lanes?
Bike lanes make for safer commuting to work in these times of crazy fuel prices.

there was one congressman before. i don't know if he's still riding a bike though come to think of it. in theory, there's no need for vehicle inspection when you're riding a bike, he he he.

Marikina City will be the country's capital levity aside... i think a few of us here don't know that... we hit the trail not knowing a 'congressman' is one of our co-mtbiker...

a friend of mine from his place/south, told me that before he run for congress this gentleman from south is a simple farmer, do you think he can afford those high end mtb's???but still he got it from his pork barrel or some commission and bonuses from the administration. try to compare to the late cong. kabel. he died of nothing in his pocket a 50k is still pambayad pa utang to his housing loan etc. so wish ko lang!..har-har-har....

(maybe not related but it's the thought that counts) If the 1st Gentlemen rode a bike in front of me I will definitely stick a fork through his spokes so that he will receive the face plant he deserves!!! Hehehe!

Yeah i saw him riding an expensive bike. Its a good publicity for the cycling community for a congressman using bicycle. Expensive or not. But i think that publicity stunt benefited him more than the actual use of bicycle as mode of everyday transport. What did he do for cycling community anyway? Havent heard from this guy from quite sometime
