HAPPY NEW YEAR!

A very HAPPY NEW YEAR to all my siclista friends from the top of Sierra Madre mountain range, Rizal, Philippines!!!! 80km ride total, 20+km of climbing for the day (not sure of Sierra's elevation but I'm certain the grade isn't as punishing as Sierra road over there), met some friends and best of all, TAPSILOG at the top!!!!

John, Looking good in your Siclista jersey with matching red shorts. Saan Sierra Madre sa Tanay ba o sa Montalban (Rizal). You will bwe our ride leader paguwi namin diyan.

Went up Montalban side and came down on Tanay. I'll be your tourist ride leader when any of you come over (rodge may ticket ka na ba?). This is one ride I truly enjoyed. Hmmm... comparing it to Hamilton. They're both long. And si Pinky... hahahah... drove a car 1/2 of the way to the summit. kaya fresh na fresh pa.

Yung anak ko pala boy... si Lance Manalo with 2x the legpower.

Have a good new years ride guys and keep safe!
