Happy New Year.
Last year saw some hardships here, namely some random injuries and being hit by a major earthquake. All in all, though, it was a fruitful year thanks to the support from you all.
On a rather personal note, there was a big step forward as some physical conditions of my ankle and so forth that had troubled me for years got better, enabling me to ride and have fun on bikes once again. Simultaneously I was blessed with opportunities, places and friends that let me enjoy riding in fields other than streets, leading to a rediscovery of the joy of bike riding on a broader and deeper scale.
For this coming year, we are determined to further pursue the fun of bicycling, and turn the inspirations we get from it into actual shapes. Why don’t you hop on and enjoy the ride with us.
