Aside from being an environmental and sports event, the recently-held First Iloilo Bike Festival also put focus on Iloilo as a city replete with heritage sites.

Over 3,000 bikers who took part in the launching of the Festival, which is planned to be a series of biking events, were afforded a glimpse of both familiar and unfamiliar sites in the different districts of the city.

The March 30 Festival launch ride started and ended at Megaworld Corp.’s Iloilo Business Park, which used to be the old airport site in the city’s Mandurriao district.  Read More:  http://www.iloilo.net.ph/events/iloilo-bike-festival/
