Why Riders Love It

Winter excellent, usually dry and minimum daytime temperature is about 17°C, though it can get down to 14°C on some occasions, but only lasts a short time. Rainy season is May and June and it rains a lot. Typhoon season starts in August through October, and sometimes gives great conditions! Summer temp is about 28°C, rash guard and shorts is fine.
