The Bike for Life 2007 Ends in Davao but the Journey Continues...

Please keep posted for some more updates per leg, the laptop of Ms. Carmela Serina got locked when Mr. Boy Siojo tried guessing her password, hence, the delayed updates. Ms. Serina is currently at Subic for the White Rock Triathlon 2007 tomorrow. Let us please pray for her success!

Meanwhile, please allow me to say a few (many, actually) thanks to all those who have helped us in making Bike for Life 2007 a success, especially those whom we have not yet mentioned in the daily leg update. Please continue checking this blog and the Cancer Warriors website www.c-warriors.org for updates on Cancer Warriors Foundation activities. There are some exciting activities in store for everyone and from what I have heard... there will be another bike activity in the near future! Bike for Life 2007 may be over but the journey continues... Hope everyone won't get tired of helping, let's continue to fight until the last "c" falls.
