bunch of friends do road/trail biking and are asking me to try it out. Must admit biking felt damn good last night.

you should try it. They say it's super fun and challenging (according to my cousins)

yeah i think i remember a cousin of yours is into it.

A decent bike would cost me around 14K plus equipment another 2K or so. Hmm.. Probly sa birthday ko nalang if ever. Mahal kasi.

yun lang

rjg: hey exercise freak, watcha think?

my cousin got into it. spent 150-200k in 6 months. then he lost his bike, and had to spend another 50k. hahaha.

are you doing this for exercise? or interest? will you be able to keep the interest? do this while doing wingchun? swimming?

jiddu: look at you, voice of reason!

falqita: i'm ALWAYS the voice of reason. watchutalknbout, woman?

weren't you the voice of buck-toothed mongols and sadly misguided chauvinists?

jiddu: Ok that's too much. Interest and exercise. Kaya ko with WC and swimming. alternate biking/swimming...

then WC sat or sun. Sides I can get a decent bike naman for less than 10K...

if just for exercise, honestly i wouldn't really recommend biking, as it is can get very stressful for your back. if for interest, it will

entail a lot of time- long rides (riding in cavite/laguna/antipolo/sierra madre, where the fun's at) will always take at least half a day.

maybe try to go on a few more rides on borrowed equipment first until you get a pretty good idea of how biking really is.

and what are you planning to get? a road or mountain bike?
