Puerto Galera to Calapan City Motorcycle Ride

If you like riding motorcycles on curvy hillside roads with a view of the ocean. Then you should definitely take a Puerto Galera to Calapan City Motorcycle Ride when visiting the island of Mindoro.

With so many options on how to get from Puerto Galera to Calapan. It can be difficult choosing the best option of transportation between the two. However, if you enjoy some fun and adventure and are also up for some adrenaline-pumping activities. Then riding a motorcycle to Calapan is the most fun you can have during your stay here.

Keep in mind that anywhere here in the Philippines there can be danger lurking around the corner if you’re not paying attention. You just never really know what can be around the next turn as you go flying around on your motorbike. Oftentimes you forget that you are even surrounded by so many old forms of transportation. You want to make sure you’re always in control of your bike (including speed) as you make your way to Calapan.

You’ll find that the free form type of traffic here doesn’t tend to follow a lot of the rules you might be used to back at home. You may also run into the occasional checkpoint where the police or military are checking for a license, helmets, etc. One thing though that I can guarantee is you will have fun on these curvy roads, awesome weather (a majority of the time) and of course the wonderful views.
