opened what eyes? hehehe.... you gotta wake up once every morning and say its a good day to ride, cuz your still alive and its another day to enjoy life and what you love doing... cycling. There are a lot more that are shy to express and show what "mountain bike lifestyles" are all about, i was at first afraid to be misinterpreted or misunderstood by some. Then i realized i shouldnt be scared, i wanted to break the silence which inhibits gravity junkies to heard. I thought i belonged to a mental institution before too... yeah i know! ;D I was aware in my mind that Downhill riding and everything that revolves around it is something not for the faint of heart, so not everyone can relate or comprehend why we are like what we are now. To a few were just junkies, but we always say " Try it then ill ask you how it feels". Everyone has their own respective achivements and contributions to what we now call our own DH community, My goal in wanting to be heard and understood is one step forward to promoting a sport where normal people draw the line from: thats dangerous i cant do that.. What i'm trying to voice out is Downhill is a sport for everybody, may it be for fun, prestige, money, competition or fame. Ive been here for 15 years and i can only hold on to my promise that i will not quit DH riding to the point that i can no longer ride. Ive seen riders come n go, the sad part is what if im the only insane person riding left? hehe. its better to have 100 insane riding buddys than 99 sane people and just 1 insane you. ;D I came in to this forum to help out, i may have been rash and politically incorrect sometimes, but i dont sugarcoat what im trying to point out, cuz out on the trail none of this would matter. And no matter how hard you fall its still fun, cuz you only get to do those stunts on your bike. sure beats getting smacked down at home right? hehehehe Downhill isnt a sport where one can just read it and get good at it, its a discipline sport where in you have to try and practice your skills if you want to learn properly. Rakenroll ........

hahaha... i dont consider lolo ricky montelibano and papa nono as unsung heroes.. they are there still around and keeping the sport alive.. heroes kasi pag tigok na... kaya sir erwin wag muna kain ng mga bulalo ahh.. baka manging hero ka na!!! hehehe
ricky m - for promoting the sport and sharing his wisdom to all, kahit XC DH or pasaway ka lang sa bike..
nono - for giving opportunities to other people and not asking anything in return, sabi nga nya.. " basta masaya tayo "
redneb/buddy - for opening the eyes of the people here in PinoyMTBiker, from being banned to rock star..
james sardea - for bringing the DH to the masses and budgeted rider... remember the trixxter effect??
erwin benipayo - from supporting the sport to supporting the riders...
the best thing about this hero thing is that we can mention names and lots of names will be posted...
its not how big or small you helped the sport... basta naka tulong in anyways...
for me, we are all heroes in the sport.. naniniwala ako na.. as long as we ride our bikes and inspire someone to ride a bike... that is enough!!!
