Riding to new places at the time of Covid-19

2021 is about choosing the right way to live and be happy. As the pandemic gave us lessons to learn, it also gave us the opportunity to live beyond the normal of what we used to do.

Whatever you have in mind for a New Year’s resolution, Travel is most probably one in your bucket list. But the question is, is it still possible?  

While some areas are being allowed for travel, always make sure to have your travel documents with you and ensure to observe safety protocols so you can make your 2021 resolution to “Ride to New Places,” a reality.

2021 is about choosing the right way to live and be happy.  As the pandemic gave us lessons to learn, it also gave us the opportunity to live beyond the normal of what we used to do.  It detached the complacency of living the regular way of doing things.  And it even gave the ladies to explore beyond the usual way of spending their weekend – the leisure of Motorcycle Riding!  

Last January 24, the OMG Lady Squad Riders explored another town in Batangas after their last ride in December at The Old Grove in Lipa.   These Lady Riders’ desire to relax, rode around 100km travelling the roads of Batangas to Agoncillo. This is quite a long ride, especially for ladies who are mostly afraid to face large vehicles and highways.  And since going to Bali isn’t too possible yet, these ladies discovered a new site in Batangas known as the “Bali of Batangas” located in Villa Jovita in Agoncillo, Batangas.  

Long ride need lots of confidence, when asked what makes her confident in riding a motorcycle, Carol said, “I am confident because I was taught to practice road courtesy and discipline. I always bear this in mind, because I want to enjoy travelling alone and with friends.”  

Elvie, a rider for 5 months, also shared her interest in riding. “I want to inspire those ladies who are afraid to ride and tell them, kung kaya ko, kaya mo rin! You just have to have the confidence in riding with a great partner on the road. That is why I bought Genio as my first bike, and this buddy already took me to Bicol safe and sound.”

The visit to Villa Jovita makes you one with nature. It has the relaxing view of the bamboos and spring, while you also feel the Balinese touch of the resort.   Krizel, a single rider who started to ride a motorcycle for 1 year, shared  “My Genio gave me the freedom to ride everywhere with the looks that I love. Mahilig ako sa classic look na motor, kaya inabangan ko na agad ang paglabas nitong Genio. This ride to Agoncillo will be an addition to my bucket list in exploring nature with my Genio.”    

Group rides can also be an alternative to enjoy nature with friends in a more interesting way.  Madonna, another Genio rider, says  “Iba ang saya na kasama ang grupo.  I can explore with my Genio everywhere and every place na hindi ko pa napupuntahan.   Yung height and its comfort is perfect for my daily and long ride.”   

These OMG Lady Squad took off at Honda’s 3s Shop in Motortrade Topline, Inc., Tanauan and made a stop-over in Elite Motorbikes Corp in Taal, and Honda Prestige Traders, Inc. in Lemery as they traverse the roads of Batangas to take pride of their Genio motorcycles.  

The Honda Genio is another motorcycle of Honda Philippines, Inc. that has qualities perfect for lady riders especially for beginners, because of its light weight and safety features.  Fulfilling a dream for the riders is in line with the Honda’s “ONE DREAM” campaign.
