I would have been but I refused to take a trike for that price. I stopped 3 different ones and they all wanted 70 or more. They wouldn't take any less so I walked. Could be because there were 3 of us but I look at it as being the same distance, doesn't matter if there's 1 or 3 of us. I offered 50 which I think is more than reasonable..

I simply refuse to ride a trike in the Angeles area. Those trike drivers are spoiled and very aggressive. I think the Land Transportation Office says they are to charge no more than a jeepney, now 7 pesos for the first 5 km. In other parts of the country trikes are reliable and inexpensive. Tacloban, for example, is 5 pesos anywhere within the town. Nope! I just will not allow myself to be abused by those asses in Angeles. I take jeepneys.
