Vigan to Baler Bikepacking 2017

The Luzon Island landmass is oriented north-south and most Luzon multi-day biking tours follows this general direction. A Luzon east coast to west coast bike trip can take an hour or so (Unisan-Atimonan, Quezon), or couple of days if you throw in Sierra Madre and Cordilleras along the route. Preferring the path with the most resistance, the ninth edition of “Lakbay Bisekleta” (bike tour) by Sorsogon cyclists is a coast-to-coast traverse of Northern Luzon from Ilocos Sur, over the Kalinga Cordilleras, across the Cagayan Valley, over Sierra Madre, to the beaches of Aurora.
