Jericho Rosales hardly needs an introduction. But here we are getting to know him once more, this time as he talks about his passion for biking. What started out as something that piqued his fascination turned into an advocacy. After half a day’s shoot, he talked animatedly about the Brap Pack, his group of friends whom he rides with and how they promote road safety and caution. But in between serious moments, he mixes in a bit of humor. “It’s the sound of the bike. Brap. Brap. Brap.
The biker identity, though something that’s always been with him through his father’s influence, has also given him anonymity. On our way back to Manila, we managed to catch up with Jericho at a gas station, full helmet and mask on. He’s just another person on a journey back home. No one stops him for a selfie and there’s no need to be too conscious about his environment or his status. Just like everyone else, he’s just another person on a motorcycle, making his way around the chaos.
“With motorcycling, you’re just like the others. There’s none of that crazy adoration or starstruck factor. You’re just a normal person when you’re on a bike.”The small freedom, definitely. You are wearing a helmet and a mask, and even though you’re out there, people don’t know it’s you [underneath the protective gear]. Just having that feeling that nobody knows who you are and you’re free to move like a normal person is great. Nobody gives you false respect.
“There is some sort of excitement when you ride a bike, and also when you interact with people. There’s always a story to tell.”I was going through his photographs and then I saw a picture of him, riding down the San Juanico Bridge. I told myself, I will replicate this photograph. It was something I needed to do, not necessarily to feel closer to him, but definitely I felt as if he were close [during the ride]. It helped me come to terms with the fact that he’s gone.
