A seasoned biker with a new toy has not seen the Nuestra church even after biking to the sitio several times
Someone experienced trauma on his 1st visit last March and wanted to recover using another bike
Someone simply wanted to revisit after joining us by chance to our San Mateo-Marikina flat terrain loop just last Saturday
When finally, everyone agreed on bike on Wednesday, not Thursday or Friday, it was a go!
Bosoboso officially starting at Petron Katipunan corner Aurora Boulevard ending at the old Bosoboso sitio Nuestra Senora dela Annuciata, a 50-kilometer ride round trip has become a favorite weekday ride
Dreaded initially due to the long stretches of ahon, series of ahons and lusongs and a stretch of winding lusongs, it took some convincing and deception to attempt to complete it the 1st time around
Completing it again added confidence to one’s strength, endurance and skill and to an approval to a favored bike appropriate for the ride
Like life and Holy Week, sufferings must be experienced first before enjoying the joy of redemption
Reaching Shell on the ascent is a relief. Reaching the Nuestra after Shell is a greater relief
On the return, making it to Shell is the start of a thrilling and fast ride back to Cogeo, Marikina and Quezon City
All of us 5 are now back in the safety of our homes now thinking when the next ride to Bosoboso is exploring the auxiliary destinations
Salamat
