BASIC FISHING IN TAGALAG, VALENZUELA 🎣🚴

After years of invitations from Kuya Jon of Larga, I finally joined them for a rainy Saturday morning of fishing in Tagalag, Valenzuela.

Tagalag is known as a fishing area, and it was interesting to see how fishing is part of the local community. Some people even bike to the area with their fishing rods. For some, fishing is a way to catch food for their daily meals. For others, it's a hobby, a skill, and a chance to enjoy the outdoors.

Kuya Jon, Jossel Itto, and Zymer Villabeza shared their fishing stories and taught me the basics: from choosing a rod and bait to learning different techniques. What I enjoyed the most was the waiting game: Will the fish bite the raw pandesal? πŸŽ£πŸ˜‚ It definitely takes patience and practice, but I'm already excited for the next session! 🫣 I also love how Larga combines biking, camping, and fishing. 3 outdoor activities that bring people together and encourage us to explore new hobbies and places.

Thank you, Kuya Jon of Larga, Itto, and Zy for sharing your knowledge and experiences. Can't wait for our next Bike & Fishing adventure! 🚲 Special thanks to Inilawan Coffee - MAIN for tambike!

And yes, I also learned that fishing can become an expensive hobby if you really get into it! πŸ˜‚

BasaBike: Stories, Bikes, and Smiles πŸš²πŸ’›πŸ˜Š

BasaBike started from an idea by Kuya Rey Bufi years ago. Through his BasaVan, he has been traveling to different parts of the Philippines to conduct outreach programs and bring storytelling to children in different communities.

And now, BasaBike has come to life as part of the 5th Anniversary celebration of Valerides! πŸ₯³
As someone who loves bikepacking in the mountains, community immersion, and storytelling projects, I’ve always believed that cycling can be more than just riding.. it can also be a way to give back and create meaningful connections.

Together with Kuya Rey Bufi of Bahaginan Publishing, we brought BasaBike to life and shared stories, books, art, and smiles with the children of Augusto E. Hocson Elementary School in Pagsanjan, Laguna. πŸ’›

70 kids
60 books donated to the schools (DAEHES, FBMS, SES, and CLES)
20 volunteers from different sectors
12 bikers joined the ride
1 school
Countless generous donors πŸ₯Ή

We are truly grateful to everyone who helped make this project possible πŸ₯Ί

To the school and community:
Thank you to Ms. Djonanna Prenda-Alias, PSDS Dr. Rhoda Manual, Principal Mrs. Eula Danice Perin, Mam Jocelyn Cabrega and all the teachers of Augusto E. Hocson Elementary School for warmly welcoming us and supporting the event.

Our heartfelt thanks as well to Mayor Januario Ferry Garcia, PNP Pagsanjan, Francis Jay Opelanio for the tarpulin, Kapitan Ricky Caballes and his kagawad, the DAEHES Family, volunteers, parents, the Hiraya CORE Team for your support and assistance, The Storytelling Project team, and Project ScanAklatan: Smart Community Knowledge Hub Initiative team 😊

To our generous donors: πŸ€—
Thank you to Ms. Nini Andrada Sacro for the Star Meaty canned goods by San Miguel Foods, Skippy Peanut Butter, and art materials; Sir Oliver Espinola of UP Artists Circle Fraternity for the art materials, Shiela Serquil, TaraPadyak, Rayzon Galdonez, and JM Espiritu for your generous contributions.

And of course, to my amazing biker friends who joined the ride and volunteered their time and energy: πŸ«‘πŸ€—
Sernoel TV, Doc Clifford Ramos, BhikeQuest peeps Milben Lapitan, Lawrence Lei, Oliver Espinola, Mike Lumenda and his two kids, Len Recto, Kita Manahan, Renato Marbella, Erwin Vicuna, Gin Clarino, and Leo. 🚲

Thank you for pedaling with a purpose and for being part of this meaningful milestone for Valerides.

This is what I love about biking it brings us to places, connects us with communities, and gives us a chance to make someone’s day a little brighter. From one pedal to one story, one book to one smile BasaBike is just getting started. πŸ“šπŸš²βœ¨

Thank you, everyone, for helping us celebrate the 5th Anniversary of Valerides with a purpose. πŸ’›

And this is just the beginning!
We can’t wait for BasaBike 2! πŸ₯³ We hope you can join us next time for another ride filled with stories, meaningful connections, and lots of fun!

See you on the next BasaBike adventure! 🚲✨
