Sat.星期六

Bumped into Bean Shanghai‘s group ride outside Jing’an Sculpture Park.

The tricycles (both with back seat and without) were there again.

在静安雕塑公园外碰到了 Bean Shanghai 集体骑游,都穿了背心呢!

上次夜骑来过的竹三轮(两辆一对比发现后座是可以拆下来的!)

Factory Five & My First Night Ride

Just came back from my first night ride with the gang. Met lots of interesting people.

Finally took a pic for Tyler. And that’s 48×15 Vol. 2 he’s holding.

And I just had to get some biking spirit for myself…

↑ Laura, writer and journalist from Germany. That’s a new built she just got today.(What a beautiful bike!) She took the last pic of me and Tyler.

Inside Factory 5 ↓:

That’s Perry from Hongkong on the right.

And finally met Jeff. (with a huge flash)

Lewis from Scotland with his Factory 5 built.

Waiting at the gate to hit the road.

Night ride starts!

And guess what, we’ve got a tricycle (rickshaw?) ↑ and a tandem bike ↓

We biked pretty far (probably NOT so for many). I was almost exhausted from the pedalling a few times on the way because my non-fixie bike has small wheels and gears. But thanks to the timely stops in between, I made it all the way 🙂

And finally, Karta with the bamboo bike. [AgotoB.com] Let’s bring the bike culture back to China!

Central Studios Autumn Fair

Went to Central Studios Autumn Fair last Sunday. There were some really lovely bikes parked out side before I even got in.

(Nope. You’re too little for it buddy.)

(Guess which one of these we have posted before with its cute owner?)

Actually I was there mainly to check out the Factory 5 bikes. After wandering around for over 1 hour, I finally discovered that the tall ginger guy is THE Tyler of People’s Bike. Now all dots are connected. Then I guess I was too excited to have forgotten to take a pic of the man himself. wink

One of them cool guys who just hangs around the spot. ↑

And then on the way back…

Yep. This is Linh with his newly built Factory 5 bike in action. Didn’t even recognize the bike before I stopped him.

This photo poped into my eyes while I was looking back at the photos. The blur opens up so much space for imagination, doens’t it?

朦胧美,嗯!
