Day two tackled the Challenge Philippines’ bike course, headed by Coach Melvin Fausto, who gave the participants a preview of the race–riding through scenic routes, cross winds and head winds. This gave them a first-hand experience of the challenge they are to face for the bike course, giving them more room for preparation and knowledge on how to pace themselves throughout the route.
