The San Mateo Padyakan Laban sa Tambakan


I was reading some notes on California auto insurance when I received this from the egroup… It’s an invitation to join the Padyakan Laban sa Tambakan this January 17.

This is for bikers, and for peple who wants no dumps, who wants things clean.

Here goes:

A sequel to the previous FREE RIDE for FREE DUMPsites held last Dec. 27, 2008 which gathered 300++ concerned cycling advocates who took an environmentally fellowship bike ride around the town of San Mateo to announce to the general San Mateo residents that a gigantic dumpsite is about to destroy and diminish their town into a massive heap of garbage much like Payatas and Smokey Mountain. Along with it would be our beloved Maarat trail which we enjoy riding freely in wooded fire trails and forests during weekends.

From our previous experience last Dec. 27th’s advocacy ride we have seen a great effect in terms of its environmental awareness campaign done by all cyclists who joined. This coming Saturday, January 17th at the Aling Tinas Cycling Station and Resto, we shall now be joined by international environmental and eco-waste experts such as Green Peace and the Eco- Waste Council as well as the media who will join our Fellowship ride to stop the massive dumping of garbage in San Mateo forest’s Bgy Maly and Guinang.

Once again the concerned cyclists from all over the Metro are calling on ALL cyclists Mountain bikers and Roadies alike to once again join and be the voice of the San Mateo residents to the world. This Saturday, we are expecting at least 500 riders from all over the metro who will join this fellowship FREE RIDE for a cause. We hope you can all share in this momentous and historic cycling occasion.

Details:

The event will be on January 17, 2009; Registration starts at 6:30am. Critical mass ride starts at 8:00am.
