Throwback to when EDSA had no bike lanes. We sure are glad it now has one in spite of its shortcomings.

Note that this photo was taken during a sanctioned race event in 2018, on a Sunday morning, with the participants escorted by support vehicles.

Also a reminder to cyclists and motorists alike, bike lanes are there to provide a safe space for less adept or slower moving bike riders, not to indisputably confine anyone on a bicycle. Cyclists have every right to ride outside bike lanes especially if there is a clear obstruction or hazard in it. When riding outside the lane make sure to ride predictably, go with the general traffic flow and pace, and obey traffic regulations.

And to our motorist friends, please do not spout at us for simply being outside of the bike lane. There are, unfortunately, too many reasons for us to have to ride out of it. 🤗

***Apologies to anyone offended with the caption of the original post. It wasn’t as carefully thought out as it should have been. We support any initiative that will promote road safety for cyclists of any level. This new caption is what we truly intend to say regarding the topic of bike lanes.

Is there something on my face?

Kidding aside, cotton doused in a kind of mint oil placed in the nose during warmup up helps expand the lungs preparing it for an upcoming high intensity effort such as a time trial.
