Chinese New Year 1st Day Dinner with Friends

好的吃 .. Great tasting Food  Hǎo de chī

Back at our local Bike Store–Chang Ping town

A GIANT dealer with an amazing range of bikes. The store owner and his manager are great guys and fun to visit with and talk bikes. They also own the Trike Shop.New Bikes just arrivingThe bike in the window: 16,998 RMB .. now when the average months rent for an apartment in this area is about 1,500 RMB .. ask yourself  “Would I pay about a year’s rent for a bicycle?”  Contrast with this USA store offer for any bike OVER $2,999.99 = about 18,000 RMB

Tea Room Update

Back in June 2013,  I managed to finish a new shelving unit and Dragon Seal Pu-Erh display case .. This is proving to be a functional lay-out

Utility Tricycles

Stuff in one of the many Bike Shops in Chang Ping Town .. look on the shelf ….Next door, is a Tricycle outlet / repair shop .. Pedal power to Full Electric Recent changes in the local Laws/Ordinances have promoted a massive influx of electric/battery powered 2 and 3 wheeled conveyances Truly a workhorse in use all over China
