my new ride

the last 18 months have been the most unhealthy of my life. in addition to opening a bar, a club and drinking every night in excess, i've not had any time to enjoy the sports and activities that i used to - namely skateboarding, snowboarding, wakeboarding, surfing, playing volleyball, basketball, soccer, martial arts, etc.

so i've finally decided to do something about it. i was going to buy a car in Shanghai, but i've opted for the healthier option - i bought a bicycle. and not any ole bike, its a pimped out Giant lowrider with fat tires, extended, long frame, low profile seat and...painted flames.

i've been happily cruising around on my bike all week in Shanghai instead of taking taxis whenever possible. check it out:
