Istambay sa shop ni Jay

Jay, the vespa mechanic is high on his vespa project for this year. It's a handlebar with a PX150 engine with disc brakes (front and rear)
plus lots of blings here and there. I hope that scoot was mine. sigh. Anyway, that remains to be a dream
which I know I will get in the near future. I pass by his shop one day and took some pics,
share stories and reminded him that he still have to fix my PX carb as soon as he's done with his project.
I think Jay Martin is the best Vespa mechanic in this part of the world.
Jay's shop is located at San Rafael St. Mandaluyong City.

Creative Day Away

The creatives are out of the office. It's an overnight thing. 22nd of October 2010.

I downloaded and printed the map going to Punta Fabian in Baras Rizal. Two hours drive from manila as the search link says. And it was. The downloadable info was precise. I rode with my vespa, which by the way is quite enjoyable, for two hours. I was a bit slow because I have to check the landmarks carefully.
It was two towns away from Antipolo City and I didn't get lost. A few stops to ask the local for directions did the trick. Because as I was told, the bus where my office mates were in got lost twice. Heheh. Good thing I decided to ride my vespa.

And what were the Lowe creatives doing in an out of town experience? to think? hell yes. To think of ideas. and nothing but good (possible to win awards) ideas.
No meetings, no ae's, no computers, no phone calls to bug us. it was refreshing in a way.
And even though the food is not that great, and the place is...OK...
buti at hindi bitin ang beers at karaoke.
Baras rocks!

Kibungan is awesome

Hands down, this is one of best place to climb. September 17-19, 2010.

Kibungan mountain range is 67 km away from Baguio City. The second campsite has an altitude of
more than 2000 meter above sea level. The pictures are not enough to describe it as amazing.
I will definitely go back.
