Mactan Fun Bike Race 2009

Friends of library 2-wheels fun ride and race for a cause.

The 10 km fun ride with fundraising purpose started at Lapu-Lapu City Hall just after 7.30 in the morning on April 26, 2009.
The route went past Marina Mall, MEZ1, Ibo, Buaya and Bangkal and ended at a open field at Brgy. Pajac, at the back of Abuno Elementary School.

Though at times it looked like it might rain we were spared the shower, but not the heat.
