[Title] => 100CC of Fun
[Summary] => We all have different ideas when it comes to having fun. For kids, it’s going to the playground or playing their favorite video game on the arcade or on the computer. For some adults, it may be a hobby, a sport or a recreational activity. If your idea of having fun is swinging a leg over a motorcycle and communing with nature in a three-dimensional moving display, you are not alone. As the attendance at the first Bike Week held at the Fort confirms, the number of bikers in the country has grown tremendously.

[Title] => Bikes here, bikes there bikes everywhere
[Summary] => He never thought it would grow this big. And for Tom Leber, the growth of motorcycling in this country means only one thing – more fun.
Leber, the retired president and general manager of Wyeth Philippines, only wanted to ride his motorcycle as often as he could when he put up the Mad Dog Motorcycle Club in 1994. It all started in his garage at his Dasmariñas Village home. From a small group of nine Harley-Davidson diehards, Mad Dog has grown into an international club of motorcyclists with members in 13 countries, including the United States and Japan.

[Title] => Touring RP on a bike
[Summary] => It has been years since he last rode a motorcycle. Yet for Tourism Secretary Richard Gordon, the temptation to ride one even for a brief moment was simply too hard to resist. Hence, one afternoon last week, he jumped onto the saddle of a hulking BMW bike in the name of tourism.
Gordon’s historic ride officially launched the Department of Tourism’s endorsement of the first Bike Week which promises to be the biggest gathering of motorcyclist and motorcycle enthusiasts in the country’s history.
