CHANGE


I'm changing my blogs site's name from 'manilafixed.blogspot.com to "batalya.blogspot.com to avoid confusion from "manilafixedgear" site. Anyway, they're more legitimate bloggers as compared to me and they're doing what I was doing in my blog only better; which is to promote the fixed gear lifestyle/culture in the Philippines.

UGL Party




Went to UGL party with Rachel and Dale (htrying to manuever the autoMOObile), staying true to their tradition of overflowing beer and beer food.

The Fort





Went riding with Dale in the FORT, met some of our friends from the Agency, ordered a burger, had a few laughs and then went home.

STREETWEAR Manila style

figures



The fixed gear lifestyle is spreading like peanut butter, even toy makers are doing their own take on the culture. click here fore more info.

nice art


I saw this one while mall ratting in G3

I love the Christmas feeling










Christmas time is near so we left early from work (not sure if there's logic in that) so we went to Ayala Triangle park. It's a nice place to hang around, lots of people passing by, it's also a good place to jog, listen to ambient music, in our case it's a Christmas tune, or a rendezvous for lovers. My friend Dale and I just stayed there (not as lovers) but good bike buddies, we also invented some "out of this world" fixie tricks. After a while we bought some healthy shakes to quench our thirst, parted our ways and went home. Oh there's also free Wi-Fi in the park.

uh oh


This is my friend Dale, he's about to do one of the classic (banana slip) comedy routine.

Subic ride







My friend Dale (A.K.A. Senorito) and I brought our rides to Subic in time for the Advertising Congress. 1. Waiting for our turn on the track. 2. My friend Maui & Jason invited us to Anvaya Cove resort for their 1st year Anniversary as a Married couple. 3. My bitch 4. Senorito's bitch 5. We tried to ask permission to shoot our bikes near the ship but the security didn't allow us, I guess the ship is top secret, they don't want anybody to see it. 6. Stop over for a lemonade break. 7. Our Subic mascot, Gary's daughter Zooey.

One happy customer




My office mate finished his fixed gear ride last week check out the Aerospoke wheels. Fortunately for him he didn't have to go through the customs. Now I have a bike buddy to ride within the Makati area.
