TAGUIG--The fourth installment of the BGC CyclePhilippines held last Nov. 19-20 was a huge success, with bikers from all walks of life gathered for a ride of their lives.



Apart from the usual rides and expos from bike enthusiasts, it was also a star-studded affair, with former three-time Tour De France green jersey holder Robbie McEwen was also in town to grace the affair organized by Alaska Aces owner Wilfred Uytengsu, who is also a triathlete on his own.



Dugout Philippines photographer Mike Romero had a very long day ahead of him, with Matchday 1 of the AFF Suzuki Cup is also kicking off between these days, but that did not deter him taking these incredible snapshots on the road.
