The Manager: The Man Behind It All

Filed under: Point of View — Victor January 16, 2008 @ 3:47 pm

at the Malaysian airport

My trip to the USA is funded by my benefactor for 15 years, Mr. Rolando Hiso. I call him manager. For local cyclists, manager is the same as sponsor or ninong who spends for the cyclist. It is very beneficial for a cyclist to have a sponsor that will help him provide his cycling needs. I admit even in my previous posts, I am very thankful for my sponsors. I know I can not afford to buy my equipment on my own. And as a gratitude, I NEVER SELL what was given to me. Iniingatan ko talaga at minimaintain ang mga bigay sa akin. Iniiwasan ko rin na mawili ako o umabuso kaya hanggat maari yun lang talagang kailangan ang tinatanggap ko. Bukod kasi sa nakakahiya, natatakot din ako na masumbatan.

3rd Leg of the UCI Track World Cup: The Tale of my US Visa

waiting nunmber

January 16, Wednesday. I will be leaving for LA tonight. All expenses paid by my long time benefactor, Mr. Rolando Hiso. It is a relief that I can finally confirm it. I was restraining myself to answer emails and questions about my participation in the world cup because I was not sure if I can make it on time. Unnecessary delays, I dont know if it’s deliberate or purely coincidence, undelivered emails, super duper ultra electro magnetic decaying entry. Todo todo na late na entry kaya late lahat, invitation at appointments. Pati na rin ang post ko. hehehe.  I already gave up and even told the organizers that I can not bear the red tape anymore, este make it on time pala hehehe. (more…)
