    Sobrang traffic na talaga sa BGC, especially sa road in front of Market2x... Paano kasi eh sobrang dami nang jeep wala namang laman... Wala pa kwenta mga enforcers, yung mga jeep nagsasakay at nagba baba sa market2x playgrpund side..

    It also doesn't help that the road network of BGC is narrow with a lot of criss-crossing streets and that there's no real outlet to EDSA.

    That place will be quite crazy once a lot of the buildings are done and eventually occupied. As for the jeeps, AFAIK a lot of those are the old lines that ran through the old Fort Bonifacio.

    Found another pothole for you vinj. It's on McKinley going to Ayala right after the Lawton stoplight. It was deep enough to bounce a blissfully unaware overtaking Starex almost a foot high

    I'm actually avoiding McKinley lately... that place always gets potholes after bad weather. Imagine some Forbes Park or Dasma dude hitting that pothole with their uber cars.

    The matte green Murcielago that haunts the parking lot I frequent got through unscathed I think. I met it on McKinley last Monday.

    BTT avoid that area between 8:30 to 9:00. Traffic going to Ayala backs up all the way to Hyundai. Those who bypass to Buendia get backed up all the way to Chef Laudico. I suspect the street in front of Ford will also be packed.

    So basically if you're on your way to EDSA from C5 at those times you're screwed

    Try to take time learning the inner streets on off peak hours or on Sundays. The road network there is really confusing at first, but once you get yourself familiar with it, it'll surely be helpful. Although of course wala na tayo magagawa dun sa mga entry/exit points to EDSA and C5, talagang dun lang ang mga daan halos.

    Even during the evening rush hour until 9-10pm, it's backed up from Kalayaan Avenue up to CATS.

    Meron ba time na lumuwag sa lugar na yan except for wee hours? Kapag pumupunta ako South diyan kasi ako dumadaan, parang hindi naman nawalan ng traffic.

    Dati kasi, yung Shell Station, S&R tapos The Fort Strip lang yun nandyan. Si Fat Willys nung mga mid to late 90s naman. I remember there was even a circuit race held at the Fort grounds then the open parking lots were also a favorite venue of car clubs for meets.

    tanda ko nung mga 2004... walang ka trapik trapik dyan.. you can sit down and have coffee and watch the sun go down.. wala ka makikitang dadaang sasakyan.. tapos pag nagpahatid ka sa taxi hindi nila alam kung saan yang BGC.. yung iba naman na alam.. ayaw maghatid kasi wala daw sakay pabalik..

    sa dami ng running events sa BGC, year round na nga yata, baka magkaroon ng odd-even number coding dyan in the future to encourage running/jogging/walking
