GIRO D' NUEVA ECIJA

Primoz Roglic wore pink as Amaud Amare rode through a pile of broken bikes bikes with Caleb Ewan out sprinting the peloton and Cesare Benedetti ruling the first day in the Alps as Ilnur Zakarin also took one in the mountains.   

The Phantom of the Trails chased pansit kanin at Violy's Kainan and a slab of fried liempo at Jethro Eater for the entree, had monggo and barbecue at Luming's Canteen for the main course, and splurged on egg caldo somewhere and grilled liempo at Johsric's Place for dessert. 


At the Giro D' Italia, the pros feed on energy bars, gels and cab drinks while at the bike trails of Nueva Ecija, I forage for rice, meat and beer.


It is the first rest day of the Grand Tour, my 13th ride of the month and our last moment in the podium where we bid addio to a memorable Amaranthine year and P200,000 spent with no regrets.
