Pot's Birthday Ride
July 1, 2013
How do cycling enthusiasts celebrate their birthday? With a ride of course and the celebrant gets to choose the route. These pics were taken in the eastern part of Lucena City.

Yep, that's a beach and some cows
After a lake and a sea, here we are at the river
And a there's always food... lots of food
Swimming Pool Start
For those of you wondering how a swimming pool start of a triathlon or aquathlon looks like here goes one from Wetshop beginners tri.
An Expensive Ride
Bike rides are supposed to be cheap, right? Just bring some water and 200 pesos and you're good, right? Well sometimes you need more than 200 when you happen to chance upon a bike shop or want to try more than a tapsilog or pancit on ride stops. But this one never entered my mind and it's quite an expensive ride.
My friend Pong saw a wooden furniture maker beside the highway and we stopped over to see their stuff. I immediately fell in love with the sofa set made of 'maulawin' an endangered wood specie and he had his eyes on a gazebo that's a perfect fit for his garden project - needless to say we had it delivered to our address after some haggling.

A excellently built 'maulawin' set is hard to pass at a right price
Run United 2 2013

Mall of Asia
Hydration Stations: Excellent. There were enough for the whole 32K. Well manned with plenty of water and gatorade, some stations have bananas.
Route: Flat and a bit boring with Macapagal Boulevard and Roxas Boulevard as the main streets used. Well lit even in places that were supposed to be dark the organizers provided generator sets for lighting.
Cheering: It started too early and I never bothered to wake up my family in our hotel room.
Traffic Management: From my point of view it was superb.
Kilometer Markers: Markers on every kilometer.
Marshals: There were enough at every key areas, even security personnel.
Singlet: Better than most.
Medal: Excellent
Freebies: Unilab Products. Photo booth. Game booths. Concert.
Injuries: None, fortunately.
The Bad: The start is a bit too early for my taste.

Look Who's On The Cover!
No it's not me, Swim PH's April Cover girl is my pool lane mate Tintin. Don't know how old she is right now but I saw her swam 800 meters in 10 plus minutes when she was 12. Sound fast? Wait til you see her swim her favorite stroke, the butterfly.

Ride to Zig Zag
Using our mountain bikes, we climbed up to Quezon National Forest Park aka zig zag aka eMe. There were four of us riding our mtb's, a pair of 26ers and a pair of 29ers in celebration of my friend Zaldy's birthday. It was a 60 kilometer chillax ride to the top of the mountain where we had breakfast.
Zaldy taking a walk: he's such a newbie :)
