Just now I finished checking my bike's tire pressure, checking the fork's air pressure, and removing the water bottle cage and pump clip (every gram counts). I even rolled some duct tape on an empty ballpen case.

So it's T - 1.5 hours before I depart for Batangas City. I'm thinking of ordering some spaghetti from McDonald's and continue the carbo-loading.

I know in my last post I said that was my last post before the trip. Sorry about that. I think this is my last post.
