DAVAO CITY -- The Citywide Cycling Association of Davao (CICAD) will be staging next year its second Tapang at Malasakit Para sa Pagbabago Bike Fun Ride on March 11, Sunday in Davao City.

This was agreed during CICAD’s year-end meeting held Wednesday at the Jaltan Magallanes.

“We need to make again this kind of fun ride to show that we still strongly support the Duterte administration both national and local,” said founding CICAD president and now Chairman Salvador “Jun” Paholio Jr.

Also present at the meeting were the other CICAD officers led by its new President Dominic Carpio.

CICAD had successfully organized the first Tapang at Malasakit Para sa Pagbabago bike fun ride last March 13, 2016 around the major streets of Davao City. It was joined by more than 800 participants from different clubs and associations.

“We will still be inviting them and we will also invite the other regions,” Paholio said.

All types of bikes are welcome to join from BMX to mountain bike, folding bike or road bike.

“Kahit anong klaseng bikes. Kahit ordinary bike lang made from China. Sama-sama po tayong mag fun ride upang ipakita muli natin ang ating tapang at malasakit para sa ating bansa,” he added.

The bikers will assemble at the Rizal Park at 4:30 a.m. and will jump-off at exactly 5:30 a.m.

Registration is free but participants must still have to register at the CICAD secretariat in order to qualify for the raffles during the closing program at 8 a.m.

Mayor Inday Sara Duterte-Carpio and Solid Duterte Supporters Group (SDSG) D’ Original national president Mar Masanguid are the invited guest speakers.

“We will finalize the route next month,” Paholio said.
