He's already talking about getting a road bike. I joked, oh you're trying to speed past me? Actually, during the local group rides, I've learned it's bad form to pass the lead. As such, those days I tend to sweep or ride front and back practicing broken Chinese and even worse English.

The writing is good practice too. On Saturday, I'll be picking up new Diadora biking shoes and installing SPDs on the bike. I'm looking forward to that moment. After this past weekend, I'll be glad to not have my toes get numb after 50 kms of hill climbing. I'm going to do a fun 40 km ride shortly, http://www.bikemap.net/route/231109. Also, Saturday 3 PM is a ride to Guanyinshan with the local Giant group, a quick, but hilly 26 km. You're welcome to join.

Thanks a million for posting all the pics and the great journalism.
