Driving a Rhino ATV at Cagraray Island

This is the second year that I’ve been invited to join HP and Intel on their annual Synergy trip. This time, it’s at the Cagraray Island in Albay (we went to Bohol last year) where I got to drive around a 1,000-cc Rhino ATV.

This all-terrain vehicle is among the biggest in the ATV class and can seat two people. And when they say it’s “all-terrain”, they mean it can go thru sand, mud, rock and gravel without much of a sweat. Of course, you need to wear your seat belts, watch out for mud splatter and small rocks flying all over from under the tires. I got a full video footage to document all these.

The area around Cagraray, Island is now being developed as a tourist destination and there’s an AVT track that goes around the island up to the highest peak. There’s no power-steering on this Rhino but owning one of these  little “motorized gadgets” has topped my wish list.
