Mountain Biking

Mountain Biking the Trails of Busuanga with Outback Greg of Tribal Adventures Oct 31-Nov 22, 2016

Mountain Biking the Trails of Busuanga with Outback Greg of Tribal Adventures

GPS waypoint: 7°03'51.7"N 125°36'27.8"E
Location: Cheey, Busuanga, Philippines

Sagada Days
Outback Greg and I met in Sagada back in the day where we rode the single-tracks that spanned a mountain range. Sagada is now more like a past life for me, but Greg and I still hammer the trails when we get together. Here at Palawan SandCastles where he keeps a stable of trail-worthy mountain bikes, it's hammer-time all over again.

Busuanga Trails
With high-performance full-suspension mountain bikes at Tribal Adventures Tours, Outback Greg and I hit Busuanga's trails again - sandy single-tracks, river crossings and loose-gravel roller coaster dirt roads. The resort guests were along for great rides too - the more the merrier.

Ending Thoughts
It was good 'ol times again. Haven't ridden in years, I was rusty and rough on the edges but being back on the saddle with a ride buddy is reminiscent of the wonder years when it was just you, your bike, the trails and a good buddy to share the bounty with.

(Nov 26, 2016) Yes, there's something special about biking. It was this beach in the cover photo where we stopped off and had a bite of Tindahan junk food! Hate to admit it, but it was sarap!
