Who would have thought we’d get to bike EDSA? Well the Firefly Brigade did some magic. This year’s 11th Tour of the Fireflies went through the country’s most popular (polluted din ba?) highway.
This is my second year to join TOF and this tops last year in terms of experience. I get to bike again with my cousins Kuya Alain and Tsi and my 10-yr-old niece Bea (Kuya Alain’s daughter). Talo ako ni Bea because this is her 3rd TOF!
I also saw a lot of my biker friends enjoying the route. It was extremely hot and humid but it didn’t dampen the estimated 6,000 bikers that day. I wish this is similar to the critical mass rides being organized in the US or europe, they hold it every friday I think! Wouldn’t it be great to get rid of EDSA of any form of motorized vehicle and only allow bikes once a week? Haaaay dream on!
