Peimic.com is about Michael and Peichi finding their place in the World. Michael is doing it through biking, poetry and wondering around seemingly aimlessly. Peichi, well, she's the muse, the most important part.
Want to go biking around Taiwan, hang out, drink tea & beer or swap words; drop us a line. Check back often, as there's something new, nearly everyday.
I received a wonderfully nice email from Andrew Dunkle of GoOverseas.com today. It states that they consider Peimic.com a top Taiwan blog.
While this is a great recognition and I appreciate it, I personally feel that there’s others who do a much better job blogging from Taiwan. However, I’m not going to say no to the award.
Sadly though, this is a hard reminder of how much Taiwan means to me. Especially as I’m in the process this weekend of relocating to Delhi, India.
Starting next week, you’ll be seeing photos and posts from life in Delhi. I’m looking forward to cycling there and eating up all the spicy food I can. For when I’ve got to get into the office, I’ll be doing operations management with an executive team and about 50 employees of an offshore development center.
GoOverseas.com Folks are Great!

I’ve been blessed to travel the paths taken.
Not many plans were made,
a few wrong turns done.
Nothing can distract from the wonder,
of the eleven by my mate.
For every year,
much love and affection sound out.
A moment together,
forever precarious,
not to be used in spite.
Bring cold or hot,
didn’t diminish the flame
of our being meant.

The big decision just came through, I need to sell my 2009 Bike Day White Large Giant LTD at a fire sale price of 12,000 NT.
That’s right ladies and gentleman, the bike that has conquered over 4,000 kilometers of Taiwan’s flats and drastic mountain sides and even turned in a sub 5-hour Neverstop Yanjing challenge ride is for sale.
With my relocation to New Delhi next week, I’m needing to immediately, as in today, tomorrow, but not Friday, sell this well equipped ride.
How well equipped?
- Cateye lights front and back!
- Front and rear shocks!
- New 700c x 23 tires & tubes!
- New Masi comfort saddle!
- A leaky, quirky, but functional air pump!
- Water bottle cage and eco-green bottle!
- Most special and enticing of all
-
Topeak quick-release rack and bag with panniers!
Component wise, the bike is based upon Shimano’s Alivo series with only a couple of changes. The triple-crank is 48-38-26 than normal 48-38-28. If you like to climb hills, the rear 8-speed 11-31 and that 26 will let you easily climb 15% without a sweat.
Additionally, stopping is quickly provided by mechanical disk brakes.
Just Buy It!
In the end, just as this bike has treated me very well in touring Taiwan or just commuting down to the morning market, it’ll do the same for you for only of 12,000 NT.
Call 09 8329 0956 or email michael@peimic.com for details. The bike is located near the Linkou-林口 Carrefour. Give me a holler and came take a ride, it’s smooth.
The Linkou Carrefour is easily reached via the 920 bus from the blue line Xinpu MRT.
