hands-free biking

Bike courier day, somewhere in Cubao
Decided to give my aching back a rest from my too large frame by letting go of the handlebars. Life is good. :)

Poverty

Poverty in Manila. Behind the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (Philippine Central Bank) at Agham Road, Quezon City. A fire ravaged a squatter area here a few weeks ago.

Needless to say, this ride drained me.
