hi everyone, im from manila philippines and been driving my bike for almost 5 years now..i got my first honda xrm 2005 but unfortunately after 11 months of use, it got stolen....i got my 2nd bike after a week, same brand too. And as of this time i still have it and been enjoying the ride of my bike and the look of it.
Ive been thinking of writing to set of whats on my mind.....indeed, here in manila, the population of bike users got tremendously high,  because of gas price hike and the worsening traffic condition. But in line of this risening population of bike users is the risening of road accidents....
Ive seen videos of accidents  by bike riders and man, sometimess i cant stand the look of it. Almost everyday when i ride my bike, i meet riders  that ride their bikes as if there is no tomorrow.....and almost everytime they pisses me off...
For me we bike riders have the already the advantage in terms of gasoline usage and time travel and what i cant understand is that some riders use the roads as race tracks, remember we still are prone to accidents because we only have to wheels. And these kinds of attitutude will most likely meet accidents....why not try to use your riding talents and speeding bikes in the proper venue, there are legal race competitions that you can join....in here if you win, you'll be recognize and will be rewarded.....in the streets, you will receive nothing and is prone to accidents......in the proper race venue, if you win you will be put in the magazine coz of recognition, but in the streets.....well, you can also be put in the newspaper, the reason.....ACCIDENT..., well everyone, i hope somehow i have shared whats on my mind.....
safe riding everyone and god bless us all.

    We have been wondering how come Philippines are so well represented on the 2wt. We have so many members from Philippines and I think you just explained why...there is a real need for a site who's focus is on motorcycle safety, not only in US but Philippines and beyond.

    Thnx for a cool post :-)

    thanks for taking time out to read my blog.....well you're right, there's a real need for a site that focuses on motorcyle safety or on the other hand, there's alot of them already, the problem is we riders focuses more on how to modify, customize, speed-up our bikes rather than reading some safety tips hehehe....maybe we can start in our own little way...what do u think....
