Bike Swap Meet II

Manila Fixed Gear's Mindless Robot did it again. It was another successful event just like last September when we had our first bike swap meet at the Collective. The fun part here is that the exhibitors did not limit the parts on just fixed gear or road bike parts. The exhibitors were selling anything here from caps to shoes but they made sure they also had something to sell which is bike related. Another good thing here is that it was free. No entrance fee for buyers and exhibitors! Most bike parts from the exhibitors were seldom used but in very good price. The "early bird catches the worm" really worked here. The lucky part for the late comers were the bargain priced items. Some parts even went out for free just before the short ride started.

14th Tour of the Fireflies | MFG x WeFXD

Manila Fixed Gear and WeFXD joined the 38km ride headed by the firefly brigade last November 18, 2012. The annual tour wants to raise awareness on climate change and to promote bicycle as a more sustainable transportation. 5 cities in Metro Manila joined forces including Marikina, one of the most affected cities during typhoon Ondoy, for making the tour successful.  Approximately 20,000 cyclists pedaled in this year's tour of the fireflies.
