DBP RORO Race Leg 3 Update: Team Apo takes the lead; Team Anahaw gets the boot

Posted by Enrico Dee on November 8, 2008

It’s rainy in Cebu but the downpour did not dampen the racers’ spirits in Ready-Set-RORO DBP Interisland Race 2008, as the nine remaining teams rallied forward to their next challenge.

It was barely morning when the teams were released from the Lite Shipping ferry with their Oakley bags in tow. Their clue was a 50-peso bill pointing them towards the Puente Osme?a Circle. There they found another clue that instructed them to proceed to Colon St. with a sentence to be translated in Cebuano, after which they headed on to the pit stop at DBP Cebu.

The Cebu-based Lite Shipping makes use of the RORO Terminal System, to ply the Tubigon-Cebu route 4 times a day, bringing passengers and goods such as livestock, produce, and construction supplies.
