Cycling through the Amazing Barangays of Tabuk City

As a novice cycling enthusiast (albeit the incomplete gear and old bicycle I used), I had the pleasure of visiting the entire 42 plus barangays of the City. From the plains of Agbannawag, the beautiful curves of Nambaran and Tuga to Masablang, the rolling hills of Bulo, Malalao and neighboring barangays, the roller coaster mountain hills of Naneng and the scenic, beautiful roads of Balong-Dilag constitutes the impressive power of the four districts of the City. Rice, corn, mango, bananas, coffee, coconuts are everywhere in the places. Wide, monstrous roads showcasing the engineering of highways greet everyone with a fresh view.  Located strategically in between mountains, the valley of Tabuk with several plateaus is truly a blessing in disguise.


The tapestry is too much of an art, intricately weaved and crafted by nature in such an impeccable way. Travelling along the neat roads provide one with euphoria that is unnerving to a novice cycler. The adventure is worth the effort and time spent. The sweat from exhilarating ups and downs of the wheels created through continuous motion of circumduction  of the legs, with muscles of the diaphragm also involved as the friction of air touches your whole body is a wonderful experience. A refreshed, breezy self result during the process and an aftermath that boosts mood will lasts for an hour or two.


If uninterrupted cycling without traffic jam, less pollution and noise, is what you are looking for then biking through the City is perfect fit for you. Tabuk is blessed to boast its road infra akin to expressways minus toll charges. Bulanao-Callagdao-Bulo, Bulanao-Appas-Dagupan, Agbannawag-Lepanto-Malalao, Calanan-Gobgob-Massablang are exactly toll-free, no worries about pollution and noise or traffic jam along your way. As vehicles can be accommodated rather freely due to the wide roads available. Safety is also ensured as stations and checkpoints are strategically distributed among areas of the districts. Police visibility, motorists assistant points, checkpoints are found rather easily. The personnel are ready to assist conveniently and hospitably.



You will not get lost traversing the area. The wonderful experience of bicycling is augmented with the synergistic view of nature. Come and trek the city, Cyclers! In the event that you can't go home, you can always check in to the following hotels that provides you with amenities for your comfort: Davidson Hotel at Bulanao, Tabuk City, Kalinga, M-Hotel at Appas, Tabuk City, Kalinga and Grand Zion at Backras, Tabuk City, Kalinga.

Living Life One Step at a Time

Where there times when you feel like you're not accomplishing something important? As if all the things that you are doing doesn't worked out as plan. Sometimes you wish to become triplet so that you can hit three stones at the same time in different places. But you are also aware that it's just not possible and crazy as it may sound, you are secretly hoping that Science will find a way to triplicate ourselves. In a time when 24-hours is simply not enough, having a clear focus is important. Prioritizing the most significant and urgent things in life is a great skill that must be embedded in our self. Saying NO to the useless, time-consuming activities that are sometimes draining is good for yourself. When the pressure to achieve more to be the best in class, in work, in sports and in so many other areas is pressing, living one life at a time is truly a rewarding  choice. So how are we going to accomplish this. I am suggesting you to use the following strategies: 1. Pr...

Understanding Autonomic Pharmacology: A Short Essay (Part 1 of 2)

by: Archimedes O. Bayquen, RPh, MPH The autonomic nervous system (ANS) has been described many years ago as a division of the peripheral nervous system. It is subdivided into Parasympathetic (Rest and Digest, Conservative and Restorative function) and the Sympathetic (fight, flight, fright, stress response). The Enteric Nervous system is also a division of the ANS consisting of Myenteric or Auerbach plexus and submucous/Meissner’s plexus. The ANS is involuntary, automatic, unconscious response. Think of whenever you breathe and whenever your heart is beating. You don’t utilize your conscious control to initiate and sustain their function as they do their job independently without your control even when you are at sleep.Most of the organs in our body are dually innervated by both branches. Only very few are not—worth mentioning are the sympathetic cholinergic sweat glands in the skin and the blood vessels. Let us very briefly take a look at how these two systems differ. In ter...

Bakit Kailangang Lumaban?

Minsan sa ating buhay, darating tayo sa puntong hindi na natin kaya ang bigat na ating nararamdaman. Sisigaw tayo, iiyak ng taimtim, papatak ang maraming luha, magtatanong kung may nakakaunawa, at maaring mag-iisip na wakasan na ang lahat. Mahirap maging "tao", mahirap ang mga balakid at problema pero sana atin ding maisip na posible itong masolusyonan.  Galing ako sa isang mahirap na pamilya ; walang trabaho ang aking ina at ang ama ko nama'y farmer lamang. Mahirap ang aking naging buhay, hindi naging madali mawalan ng baon para makapasok sa eskwela. Hindi madaling umiyak dahil wala ka ng pamasahe or pambayad ng matrikula. Minsan kong naitanong kung bakit napakatanga ng aking mga magulang, kung bakit wala silang pera at hindi nila kayang maibigay ang aming mga pangangailangan. Nakapagtapos ako sa isang public school ng elementary at sekondarya. Sa katunayan, class salutatorian ako sa Special Science Class ng isang National High School sa amin. Kahit sa sobrang hi...
