Thankfully we have come a long way in the technology of rubber, composits, and aluminium. I can only imagine the “feel” of a wooden wheel, or the terror of flying off your wooden frame at speed when it snaps.

Riding a bicycle is a fun and an exciting hobby and is a big source of exercise. In many countries, it is encouraged as an alternative to motor vehicle travel.

In this particular festival, a number of men dressed in native costumes get on a wooden bikes and race each other.

This sounds to me like they dress in native costumes particularly for this event only. Fact is, this is really their day to day clothing. They wear this wherever they go, whatever they are doing.

The Philippine "bikes" clearly aren't bipedal, even in a punning sort of way (no pedals, though they do seem to have a rear brake) but they do look like fun.
