Bike for Rights 2008: PadyaKARAPATAN para sa CHINA

July 12, 2008 · Filed Under event · Comment 

Here in the Philippines, bikers are more than just bikers. They are also advocates of environmental and social causes.

I’ve come across hundreds, maybe even thousands of bikers, for the past few years Ive been with the organization I am in. These men and women bikers have been rallying with us, supporting us on clean air concerns, with a most special mention to the Firefly Brigade. These are the people who have been tirelessly supporting our Bike for Clean Air events.

Come August, a major cycling group will support yet another cause — and it’s called, “Padyakarapatan para sa China”. Here’s an info I got about the event:

Amnesty International Philippines, together with Cycling Advocates (CYCAD), Pugad Lawin Philippines, Inc., Metro Manila Development Authority (MMDA), Quezon City Government-Quezon City Health Office, invites everybody to join the Bike for Rights 2008: PadyaKARAPATAN para sa CHINA to be held on August 3, 2008, 6:00 AM, Sunday at the Quezon City Memorial Circle.

Registration Fee is P200 – that’s for a Jersey and some snacks; and P50 for bikers who would want just snacks (Jerseys are available on a first come-first served basis).

For you guys who are interested, just contact Amnesty International Philippines at 9279856/ 9276008/ 0920-2637305/ section@amnesty.org.ph or visit their office at 17-B Kasing Kasing St., cor. K-8th, Kamias, Quezon City.
