Puning Cave via Turungisan Road






There are 3 ways to go to Puning Cave:

1. The easiest way is via Norzagaray and Angat, it is accessible by car, mtb and motorcycle. (100% road)

2. Via Pinagtulayan Trail. 60% Road and 40% trail. Mtb's, dirt bikes and 4x4's often use this trail.

3. Via Matictic - Turungisan. 70% Road and 30% Trail, with a paved 2-3Km uphill resembling "the wall" of Timberland.

This is a fun trail, I was chased by a huge bee for around 5 minutes which left me gasping for air, a young horse jumped out of the bush in front of me and ran like a scared dog, how cool is that?

 Riding trails has its downsides, flat tires are the most common, followed by a broken chain. On this ride, we had 2 flats and 1 crash from lolo Tong, our most senior member at 53 years old, good thing he was wearing a helmet however, he injured his left hand and biked with 1 hand up to Shell, Norzagaray where Enrico's car is parked.
