...2012 RACE GUIDE Racing for GB F Race for the nation and visit Middle Earth? Sounds good to us. One age-grouper explains why he’s aiming to be in Auckland come October 2012 rom Athlone to Australia, China to Pontevedra, age-group triathlete Robbie MacNab has been a part of the hugely successful British team. But what does it feel like to pull on the GB kit? I always feel proud to put the GB kit on. I’ll never forget the feeling the first time I qualified; I grinned all the way on the three-hour drive home. Added to that was seeing my parents’ faces when they saw the kit for the first time at the Euro Champs in 2010. Even if I never manage to qualify again, those moments stay with you forever. The sheer size of the GB Team is impressive. You start to recognise people from races during the year, and it only takes a few minutes of waiting at the airport before someone with the telltale bike box says hello. In Beijing all the GB guys were racked together and everyone was wishing each other luck. You get great support from the crowds too; for the Euro Champs in Spain it could’ve been a home race with the number of GB supporters! Racing for GB means I’ve visited places I may not otherwise have gone to. I’ve seen the Great Wall of China and spent time in Australia. But I’ve never been to South America so if the Worlds were over there it would be a great excuse! I’d like to race the Worlds in Auckland, and I’ve moved up an age group so it’ll be interesting to see where I fit in...

...CORDILLERA ADMINISTRATIVE REGION I. Brief History Many theories have been postulated to account for the origin of the people inhabiting the mountain regions of the Philippines. The Land Bridge Theory claims that the Philippines was part of the Southern Asia Mainland and the Northern Luzon maintain tribes that came through these bridges during the last glacial period between 1200 and 1500 B.C. Contradictory to these assumptions is the Wave Migration Theory, which occurred thousands of years after the disappearance of the land bridges in 3,000-4,000 B.C. The theory states that groups of migrants came by boat from the neighboring lands during the Neolithic period. The Neolithic culture, which they brought with them, is still evident in the rice terraces, cloth weaving and the use of iron implements. Scholars differ in their contentions of the mountain people’s ancestors, however, a prominent number supports the contention that the ancestors of the mountain people came from the South East Asia Mainland. In the process of settling down, the early inhabitants became geographically isolated from one another. The long period of isolation and adaptation to the environment gave rise to variations of culture. When the Spaniards came to the Philippines, they were able to set foot in the Cordilleras as early as 1608 but with minimal influence. They were able to establish commandancias in Benguet, Ifugao and Kalinga-Apayao but their stay did not last long enough to pacify...

...Country Detail Zanzibar Travel Guide Zanzibar is an Island characterised by its stunning beaches, beautiful coral reefs and the magic of the historic Stone Town. With its ocean horizons traversed by traditional style dhow boats, the landscape here is one of luscious coconut palms and clove trees, spice plantations and long, red sandy roads. From the ancient capital to the coral sand coast, this island has charisma, history, and romance in the air. Located about 22 miles off the east coast of Tanzania, Zanzibar is an archipelago consisting of the main island of Unguja (commonly known as Zanzibar), Pemba Island, famous for its deep-sea fishing, and about 50 smaller surrounding luxury islands and coral reefs. Zanzibar is perhaps most famous for once being the home of the slave trade, and an important trading location for spices and cloves. Cloves remain the most important export of the islands, while tourism is now the largest source of economy, which comes as no surprise, due to Zanzibar’s spectacular beauty, culture and history. Also known as ‘Spice Island’, Zanzibar evokes images of an exotic paradise with pristine white palm-fringed beaches and turquoise waters, traditional style dhows, and ancient Islamic ruins. Today’s idyllic beach resorts belie the island’s unforgettable history of slavery, and Zanzibar combines Arabic alleyways and great historic monuments with wonderful coral reefs and excellent diving/snorkelling opportunities for tourists.
