PinoyMTBiker night ride around vicinity of Ortigas & Libis pushed thru last night in spite of the 4pm heavy downpour and drizzle at past 7pm. There were 18 night riders composed of two brave ladies ( gheegurl & my gurl jude) ; my regular night ride buddies- Ronnie and Mike (pacers of the group) ; my old riding buddies from past rides - arnold (bandido) ,edong,julien (darkman), drew , jubz, jamisjoplin ; isang NALIGAW na halimaw and my co-sweeper - jon (goku) ;D ; and a few new faces i got the chance to ride with for the first time - empoy, othan, ten, chitonoel , eric (bm5er) & jongster (my badminton mate) Lui and Allan (Sockman) were supposed to join us but Allan's mavic crossride had a major mishap on the way to Tiendesitas. (Sorry to hear that Allan) We missed fafarock, Onie, and Jun (Jam) and Joeygee As promised, it was a "pasyal", leisure ride with plenty of room for kwentuhan and foto ops. We took off 8:35 pm from Starbucks and followed the ride plan of Jun until we reached Industrial Valley when the pacers decided to make one loop around Marikina River Park. The night ride conluded at 10:30pm after two difficult climbs via Canley Road (Motel side) and St Martin Drive (Ultra side), where the riders finally got their work-out It's a pleasure riding with you all ... till our next night ride Sharing with you the pics STARBUCKS TIENDESITAS ALong Julia Vargas Ave Along Giraffe St Along Temple Drive Along Katipunan

Nice pics Noel. Good ride everyone, eventually connected the board names to some faces. Glad I changed my mind and did the ride. Sorry Rocky but the legs were itching to ride.

I saw Goku and another rider at around 10:45pm in Ortigas near Unimart. They were turning towards Wilson. I was just coming off from work.

Sir Radical is right....istorbo talaga ang trabaho! I missed this ride as I was suddenly called to a meeting at 5 pm and ended close to 9 pm. Did one round to tiendesitas around 10 pm hoping to catch you guys on the final stretch....pero wala. 10:30 pala. Till the next night ride

Here's my share of pictures of the ride last night: Regrouped at Riverbanks. Regrouped at Riverbanks. Ahihihi my saddle tickles my balls ahihihi *peace Darkman!* ^_^ Along Marikina River park. Bright lights fill Marikina River park. Crossing Marikina River. Regrouping, heading back to Tiendesitas. Class picture, batch 01222008 finished at almost 11pm.^_^ Wacky shot!!! Thanks for the company guys, loved the workout. I've observed that there are lots of strong riders practicing single speed during climbs, they even went past me and I was almost using granny haha. Good thing I caught up with NVP and other sweepers at Katips corner Boni Serrano Ave. Cortz, thanks for updating me using text message at your current location/stopovers! On the way home, we even saw Atty. Mike on his van asking us if the ride was already done. Next time sir, picture-an ulet! ^_^ To Allan sorry to hear about your rig brad, hope you're bike recovers soon. For the full resolution of the pics (especially the class picture:2272x1704), you can get it at: r0rschach.multiply.com/photos/album/87/PMTB_Night_Ride_01222008If you have a multiply account please feel free to add me up.

Whatta great turnout of PinoyMTBiker bikers! Rats! I missed it! Jongster, is that reaaaaaaaaaaally you? Wow! You're having all the fun! Kwento ka naman! (trans: Tell a story!) ;D Gadgets - its me, its me. 50 weeks of waiting and then here i am now. It's so much overwhelming and I still cant believe that I am riding now, hehehehe! Everybody had a blast that night. Im so thankful that our fellow pmtbers are nice, accommodating and warm people (plus the fact that I took advantage of meeting you long before my rig even came into reality). I am hoping that someone would plan a night ride from Ortigas to GADGETS store. Aint that a kicker. To everyone at that night ride: Im so bad with names so pardon me, but im sure i can remember all those faces whose names I forgot. I am hoping that the "ride time" would be the same with the "bonding time". I hardly talked to the people i just met that night. Of course, im shy at first =) I'll see you all for the next week's night ride! Hoping to bond with you guys more. ride safe!

Hi Ice, mis riding you brad , hows the southside group? errr....arnold.....your post doesnt sound right. although i can edit your post, its not really my nature. you'll have to do it on your own, hehehe ;D. darkman, i noticed your avatar. i think we've been there last week while looking for other trails (exploring). that trail is near likaw-likaw and norzagaray. we also did some bike pushing. the trail was muddy but i was happy being able to find that trail. its good for an all mountain rig once its dried up. where you able to find an exit? we ended up at araneta's property. sorry for the OT guys.
