According to Lei Loianco, head of Mio motorist club in Pampanga, this is the group’s “first time to have a ride in the province since the organization was founded. Loianco further added that the event will help expand their group by building new teams in Pampanga.

Oliver Meneses, a big bike owner, expressed that the event is an opportunity for bike-lovers to show their collections.

“I am with my big bike today and I registered it for the bike show. Because of my enthusiasm with and love for bikes, I customized a design for my own and modified it in my own way”, said Meneses.

“We are overwhelmed by the number of attendees and participating bikers. We will try to have it as a regular event in our annual Fiestang Kuliat,” Tourism officer Montances said. (AC-CIO with reports from Maria Cassandra Z. Agapito)
