Conquering the Banaue Rice Terraces


The Banaue Rice Terraces


I first rode here with my mountain bike on November 5, 2016 that was Saturday, ride out time 4:25am  this is my 1st time conquering this Mountainous region of Ifugao. After that day I already biked here several times, solo ride and often group rides. 

The Famous Banaue Arc
The Banaue Rice Terraces  is frequently called "Eighth Wonder of the World".

From my homebase(Echague,Isabela) to the peak of the Banaue with average speed of 25kph in flats and 5-10kph uphill I reached it in 6hours. The Rice Terraces has different view deck which you can view and enjoy the ambience of the place.








 After enjoying the view and picture taking I went to the market place to find some place to eat(carboloading/recharge).



With a period of time resting, time to go biking going home. With a total of 243.5km back and forth pedalling for 12 hour and  23 minutes.

New Highest Point(TINOC) via Kiangan, Ifugao

Image
New Highest Point - Tinoc, Ifugao Day 1 : June 28, 2019 We rode on our bike from Isabela to Kiangan, Ifugao more or less 100+ kilometers from my point of origin. This is just a chill ride for the three of us but apparently we reach Kiangan around 12pm.        We ate lunch, tasting the delicacies called  Pinuneg .  After eating we discussed if we can stay in Kiangan for overnight or head over Tinoc Poblacion with 37kms to go. The discussion went well majority wins because we thought 37kms will be enough for 3-4 hours. We also asked Kiangan folks about going to Tinoc and all their feedback are all good thats why we push through going from Kiangan to Tinoc (only to find out of the road and weather condition..... videos will be uploaded to youtube). At exactly 2pm we started pedalling only to find out that the road is gruesome...... stiff rough road, muddy and foggy with rain.       We expected to reach Tinoc po
