I described it as dangerous because you will not expect that some part of the road are defective as shown on the images below. You will not notice this damages while you are in approximately 30 meters away from this part.

Well, if you are using the off-ride sports bike or the big bike, this damaged road might be fine for you. But it’s too dangerous to riders who use underbone bikes or any low-profiled bikes.

And one more reminder… as you reach the town of Libagon, Southern Leyte, it will be good if you reduce your bike’s speed to 50km/hour – 60km/hr because you’ll find lot of damaged part of the highway from this area down to Liloan, Southern Leyte.

I might be tired of driving the Toyota Innova from Malitbog, Southern Leyte to Ormoc city via Bato, Leyte then back to Malitbog from Ormoc, but then the accident was really due to the fault of the other guy involved with it.

Yesterday, after driving our family I immediately went to Liloan Ferry Terminal in Liloan, Southern Leyte to fetch my nephew who would be staying here in Malitbog, Southern Leyte on the rest of the days of the month of December 2007. On my way to the Ferry terminal, I was driving at the speed of 70KPH in a slightly curved highway near the Himay-angan crossing when a young man riding his bicycle suddenly turned left crossing my lane. I know I would hit him but I still tried to apply brake on both wheel. The motorcycle almost skids, but I managed to control it until I finally hit the pedal of the bicycle.

We are actually in a letter – T position during the impact. We’re just too lucky that the impact is not too heavy but it still threw us few meters away from the motorcycle and bicycle.

He stood up immediately and told me to get my motorcycle and check its damage. I then told them to forget about the motorcycle because all the damages of it can be repaired. Instead of thinking about anything else, I told them to check his body for any injury.

I can’t really believe that we both had no injuries, even scratches. But my Honda XRM motorcycle and his bicycle were all slightly damaged.

The young man asked apology from me. And I advised him to be careful and not to do the things he did. I also reminded him that the road he’s running was a highway not just an ordinary road, and that vehicles are normally running in high speed.

If what hit him was a 4-wheel vehicle, I wonder what will happen to him and where he is now.

It was supposed to be scheduled next month but due to call of duty of my fiancee I was forced to deal with it in an scheduled trip.

Started my trip at 11:00 Noon in Benit, Malitbog, Southern Leyte. After 25 minutes I stopped over Sogod, Southern Leyte and filled my motorcycle tank with premium gasoline. At 2PM I was already in Liloan Ferry Terminal, Liloan, Southern Leyte.

I started my real adventure in Surigao City at around 11:00 Noon May 21, 2007, running through the Maharlika highway down to San Francisco, Agusan del Sur via Ampayon, Butuan City.

I arrived at our hometown, San Agustin, Surigao del Sur at around 6:00PM, May 21, 2007.

See the image below for preview of my trip or visit the map for more details.

Longest Drive

]]> http://www.motoristangpinoy.com/adventure/emergency-longest-drive/feed/ 2 The Longest Drive Ever http://www.motoristangpinoy.com/adventure/the-longest-drive-ever/ http://www.motoristangpinoy.com/adventure/the-longest-drive-ever/#comments Fri, 18 May 2007 08:31:53 +0000 selaplana http://www.motoristangpinoy.com/adventure/the-longest-drive-ever/ I am planning to take an adventure trip with my new Honda XRM this coming week but because of some emergencies, maybe I will postpone it in June 2007. It will be the longest drive ever with the Honda XRM.

The adventure trip will start in Benit, Malitbog, Southern Leyte to Liloan, Southern Leyte. In Liloan, I be crossing the Surigao straight through on board with ferryboats from Liloan, Southern Leyte to Lipata, Surigao del Norte. Then from Lipata, the road drive will again start to Butuan City. I am planning to take a rest in Butuan City for one hour before starting the trip from Butuan City to our home town, San Agustin, Surigao del Sur.

I am not really sure how many Kilometers will I drive from Malitbog, Southern Leyte to San Agustin, Surigao del Sur. Malitbog to Liloan maybe has 80 Killometers distance. Surigao to Butuan has more or less 150 Kilometers. Butuan to San Agustin has more or less 250 Kilometers. So all in all will be more or less 480 Kilometers. So, if I can maintain the 60 Kilometers per hour speed, then I will be spending 8 hours riding the Honda XRM.

Currently, my Honda XRM spends 0.525 liters of Gasoline per 60 Kilometers or 0.00875 Liters of Gasoline per Kilometers. To complete the 480 Kilometers distance, I will be spending 4.2 Liters of Gasoline.

I will let you know if the plan will be final.
