Bongao Tawi-Tawi, I've been there onced, grabe, so layoooo, but the place is good, no typhoons there and the beaches are more whiter than Boracay and Puerto Galera.
Batanes to Tawi-Tawi, maybe if our bosses ( misis at boss sa opis )will allow us to ride for at least 3 weeks

@ e
I know of somebody who tried to bike Mindanao from Manila solo in the late 80s. Everything went well until he got to Sulu where he unwittingly entered hot territory. Good thing it was the local Muslim barangay officials & soldiers who intercepted him first. Further down the road, it would have been the MNLF. He still got detained for about three days. The soldiers released him after they were convinced that he was just a harmless, adventurous fool.
Anyway, if you're going as far as Tawi-Tawi, why settle for Bonggao? If I were you, I'd go to Sitangkai instead- the LAST & SOUTHERNMOST municipality of the Philippines.
Sitangkai has no roads- everybody moves about in boats. So even if a bike is useless there, I'd still like to see that unique place.
Just a travel tip.

FreemanDale Abenojar rode a motorbike up Mt. Apo? I really wonder what the heck he's trying to prove. In 2004, he forced a 4x4 up Pinatubo. Man, you should see the damage he wrought to the trail! And for what? What's he gonna do next, go up Everest on a Sherman tank? (He failed doing it on foot.)

I'll wait for him at the foot of Bitukang Manok (3-eme) in Quezon. So I can be in his Video-Docu. Another publicity for me, right Paul? ;D ;D ;D
