What a tough climb! I went to Manipis last weekend and went through Sinsin and Sudlon, and then up to TCH and out to Busay. I know I need to upgrade my fitness, but certain sections were just too steep and I kept cramping. Haha. Not sure if my 1:1 gearing (50-34 crank and 11-34 cassette) is enough for those steep sections that felt like 20-30%. I was thinking of upgrading to an 11-36 cassette but not sure how much that extra gearing would help (if at all).
I think i saw that. We were actually very near the area you were cycling in on that day. Ya that's tough route. First time I did it, I started cramping too. Just keep at it!
That's a bucket list ride for cebuanos though i think you actually did not reach Mt. Manungal which is another 500 msl from TCH. There the Mt Manungal challenge next month maybe you'd like to try joining.
@@carlovillaricaUnfortunately, I couldn’t do the ride because I was returning home from the province and time was running out before school started again. Hopefully, I'll have another chance one day.
hehe tough climb gyud, you didn't even have a 1:1 climb gear in your arsenal XD either way congrats for grinding through hehe pero the weather seemed nice, not sunny during the climb
@@carlovillarica ive raced him on a 10k run race and he is a cyclist. i had to absolutely kill myself just to beat him by just 30 seconds. hahahaha. dont ask how i fared when we raced on a bike.
Your first mistake was taking a turn on the front! Got to get down to Cebu, last time I was there was 2016.
Exactly
haha the goal for the ride was to empty myself. So it was very successful from that perspective.

Opok!
i always wanted to try that route but i don't think my fitness is enough just yet, maybe in a year more
You never know till you do it. You can try other difficult routes first. Like sinsin or jesus reigns or something like that
I plan to do this climb during my 150km ride 3 days from now
How'd it go?
