I have done it sa mga probinsya trails. I just find an out of the way location. I use a tent peg i have on my toolkit to dig a 3 to 6 inch deep hole. I aways cover and top with rocks if possible Sanay ako gumawa ng scat hole from my hiking days eh Quote Link to comment

Viola Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 2022 is all about self improvement for me. So I decided to take up biking. This has been on my mind since 2020 when pandemic started, then moreso around november last year when I started a healthier lifestyle. I initially planned to enroll in a gym but i dont think it is safe yet. So to hit two birds with one stone, biking is the logical solution. I need help. I was gonna buy a bike at the start of the year, but i was hit with covid and is still in quarantine. Once Im done isolating, i want to get my own bike. What should i get with a measly budget of 10k max. This is the absolute max. Please note, i am new to biking. I dont even know how to ride a bike. So i'll be learning that as soon as i buy one. Im also only 4'11 so the big tall bikes are not for me. Any suggestions ? It must be budget-friendly, beginner-friendly and height-friendly. I mostly plan to bike around my village first then hopefully when im capable, ride longer distances and when the world permits, still use it to go to work in Makati. TIA Quote Link to comment

TIA I think a folding bike would suit your development as a newbie and eventually, biker commuter. I strongly recommend you buy a 2nd hand bike (of reasonable good condition). Look at Japan surplus shops. Wishing your fully recovery from covid and success in a healthy lifestyle. Edited January 19, 2022 by figaro888 Quote Link to comment

TIA Hoping for your speedy recovery @Viola. I do agree with @figaro888that a folding bike covers your requirement "budget-friendly, beginner-friendly and height-friendly" as a starting point. This is a convenient commuter bike that is allowed on trains (MRT, LRT) and Grab or Taxi. I saw a budget folding bike which looks good for its price around 5-6k, the Garuda folding bike and the Skyland folding bike. Try looking it up in FB Marketplace to have an idea. Save the remaining money for your bike upgrade (accessories, maintenance, parts or a new bike. hehehe). Hope this helps. Quote Link to comment
