About Me

I am Jojo Siao. I ride a bike to work five times a week. Sometimes on weekends, I ride my bike to go to SM Mall of Asia, or around Ortigas Center, towards Tiendesitas, and back to Julia Vargas Avenue. I was able to go up to Antipolo 2 times already and I am targetting to go there again some day.

I decided to start and run this blog to post online all my adventures and misadventures when I bike to work. Most of the time when I ride my bike to work or going home, I encounter drivers who are reckless and they don't mind about the safety of others on the road. Before this blog became online, I posted a video to facebook and it became viral only within a few days. The video became popular to WhenInManila, Rappler, and ABS-CBN News. Also, a big change happpened on the next day when the video became online. The motorists started to avoid the bike lane as much as possible.
So I thought. Only after few weeks passed, they start to block the bike lanes again. I thought, the viral video didn't have that much of impact to motorists to become aware of the bike lanes in ortigas, or at least be considerate enough to share the road for us cyclists as well. I just think bikes are not meant to go to the gutter side of the road. That's why I felt the importance of running this blog. I think blogging may be the answer to develop awareness and share information about safe driving.
