It was the year 1984, I was then 9 years old, when I rode my first motorbike, I took to the dirt roads of what was once rural Taytay, in the province of Rizal. This first encounter with my motorcycle would take me on a journey. A journey fueled by passion that would go on to encompass a professional riding Mel as I am known in the motoring world today is driven with the same passion that kick started my career during my youth, this fervor for riding is what fuels me to impart this knowledge of riding through the Mel Aquino’s Off Road Training Camp.
The Mel Aquino’s Off Road Training Camp is the only riding school in existence in the country to date. With the camp as his proving ground, we seek to educate a new generation of riders, versed in safety riding standards, while enjoying the freedom of riding.
