pass muna ako sa outside SG races except yung mga sa MY at TdB.

4 riders lang ang nag-race sa team. 3 sa cat A. 1 sa cat B

GIANT wrote:congrats MikeO.

Kaya lang bakit pinoprotesta yung teammate mo na si Saul Sibayan? Aber paki explain. hehehehe

During Tour of Clark last march, SAul raced sa Master's cat.

According to the organizers, ang master's cat daw is:
1) ung mga current / ex-pro or
2) current / ex-nat'l team or
3) ung mga walang trabaho at puro bike na lang ang inaatupag

Saul was with the nat'l team before, but he was not getting any allowances. parang reservist lang kumbaga.

as to his age, merong isang rider ang JAC motors (saul's previous team under vecvec) na 23 years old lang.
pero nasa CAt B, at laging nasa top 10 ng lahat ng mga stages. i wonder bakit nde nasilip ni quinn ito.

stage 1 ITT ( 3 loops of 7.++ kms)

mejo technical ung course at tabing dagat. mejo lugi ung mga last na pinakawalan dahil
mainit na sobra at malakas na ung hangin. pang21st ako sa last na pinakawalan :(

mahina talaga ako sa itt, kaya happy na rin ako sa result ko at hindi ako tinalo ni saul hahaha.
mejo mabagal ung times ng mga nasa cat b, kung dun ako naglaro, pasok ung time ko sa top 5

stage 2 ( 8 x 5.++ kms)

nag-start ung race namin after matapos ung cat B. mga 330pm na kami pinakawalan.
grabe ung course at sa neutral lap pa lang e hinihingal na ako.

from the start, is around 1.2km na descent. mga 5-6% ave grade. then rolling to false flat for the next
+/- 3 kms. then ang mahirap is ung last 1 km ng course - average of 10% for 1km. some sections are
reaching 13-14% according to my garmin. walang flat section to recover, since race pace e patayan
talaga ang takbo. ginawa namin ito for 8 times kaya meron iba na nag-abandon na.

napunta ako sa 4-man 3rd group. ang plano ko na alng is to survive and complete the race.
on the 6th loop, naging 3 na lang kami at natatanaw na namin ung 7-man 2nd group.
hindi namin sila inabot until the last 300m ng last lap.

naisip ko na sayang ang placing sa GC, kaya kahit na hingal kabayo na e pinilit ko na matuhog ung 2nd group.
nung makita nila kami e biglang nagtayuan ang mga loko. last 100m nung nagrematehan sa uphill finish.
mabuti na lng at meron pa akong natitirang lakas at halos malampasan ko lahat sila.

final result -20th place

3) ung mga walang trabaho at puro bike na lang ang inaatupag

papano yung walang trabaho pero hindi naman nag-eensayo? saan nila classify yun?

dahil sa sobrang hirap ng stage 2 kahit maigsi lang ung course, ung isang rider namin na nag-15th place
sa itt, e muntik na nde natapos ung stage. pero swerte at natpos pa rin nya kahit end of the race sya.
at dahil pa rin sa sobrang hirap para sa amin na mga mortal, nde na nya nakayanan na mag-start para
sa stage 3 kinabukasan :(

3rd stage (3 x 25kms)

same ang finish line ng stages 2 and 3 - TARLAC HILL. Nag start kami around 9am na. mejo slightly palusong
to lumpy ung way papunta sa ocean adventure. then may u-turn sa dulo ng course. kaya lalong mahirap dahil
false flat kami pabalik and aakyatin ulit ung tarlac hill. after ng first loop, within contact pa rin ako sa lead group.
nagulat na lang ako nung lumingon ako bago lumusong dahil wala na palang rider sa likod ko. paglingon ko
sa harap, lalo akong nagulat dahil ang layo na agad ng grupo at nagmamadaling lumusong.

nagtry- akong humabol for the next 6-7kms travelling @ 60-70kph pero hindi ko na talaga maidikit. until
may dumikit sa akin na taga fitness first na dati kong ka-team mate sa YC. akala ko tutulong humabol
kaso lalong pinatay ung trangko.

nawalang na kmi ng contact sa lead group at lumaki na ung 2nd group namin. naging 12-man 2nd group na kmi.
ilang beses ko ni-try tumakas sa group pero laging nache-check. sa sobrang bagal ng takbo namin, kahit sa 32kph
na speed e mga nagtatago pa rin at ayaw pumalit. pagdatin sa last climb ng last loop biglang nagtirahan ang mga
loko at ahlos last ako na tumapos sa 2nd group.

final result -23rd place

papano yung walang trabaho pero hindi naman nag-eensayo? saan nila classify yun?

pag hindi ka nag-eensayo, wag ka sasali sa karera dahil sayang lang ung ibababayd mo sa reg fee bwehehehe
kidding aside, yan ang isa sa mga hot topics ngayon sa PECA. dahil may ilang riders dun na walang trabaho,
pero nasa "executive cycling league"

they should just change the name "executive" otherwise if real "executive" lang sasali mga 10 lang sila. yung mga doctor, lawyer
at CEO ng malalaking companya(hindi panaderya) lang pede dun. hehehe

my opinion to that is... basta working class ka at me pambayad ka ng registration fee and as long as hindi ka recognized ex pro
or RP team, pede na yan. kung wala man trabaho yan at bike lang ng bike problema na nila yan. kse wala sila pera, hehehehe.

sabi nga ng isang opinion, minsan matatalo mo din yan mga yan pag off day nila. sabi nga ni michel "mapapagod din yan mga yan."
pagdating nung time na yun, eh happe yipee ka. di ba nga tinatalo nila minsan yung mga OCBC cyclist dito.

at the end of the day, bike racing (for mortals) should be fun and enjoyable. gumastos ka na eh hindi ka pa hapee, mag chess na lang sila.
