After last week's funfest at Gangsa Track, the group returned for another round.
The mandatory group shot before we take off. Nick is wondering what was I trying to do. (I was trying to lie on my bike for the shot, but with 3 seconds left in the self-timer, I discovered that: my bike was lying on her derailleur side; apart from her saddle, she isn't very comfortable to rest my entire weight on.)
Arthur found a new way to mount his camera for video shots.
For some reason, I like this shot.
Some of the gang taking a break in the shade while the others toy with the Yucky Pipe.
Nick ups the ante by wheelie-ing across the pipe on his new Surly singlespeed.
Back at Zhenghua Park. I only manage to squeeze off one shot of this "uncle" washing himself with the "miracle water" as he thought I was some kind of pervert and tried to hide behind the bucket.
"Outraging the modesty of half-naked middle-aged men," I'll be sure to add that to my curriculum vitae :-P
When I caught up with the group again (possibly leaving a very traumatized middle-aged "uncle"), they were toying with a series of stairs.
The flex from Cloe's long titanium chainstays, seatstays, seat post, seat rails made the rear end feel a little too "live." I wonder how the Moots YBB design handles this. Watch how Viki put Bruce Lee's philosophy into action — be like water: smooth, flowing, powerful — she literally flows down the steps.
I was tired from standing up to film the previous two videos, so I decided to lie down to capture the next one.
I must admit that my heart skipped a beat when Victor's Rockshox SID fork attempted to get into an intimate relationship with me. All I could do as the blue stanchions hurtled down the steps toward me was jabber, "My Oakleys will protect me! My Oakleys will protect me!" :-P
Thanks, Viki!
