A very special thanks to Marty for opening up his restaurant - after all these years, still the best damn pizza in Beijing. But we never found out about his "big news" ... as Marty couldn't attend ... leading to our speculation:

1) He got married; and/or,
2) He's not really a guy; and/or,
3) He's pregnant; and/or,
4) All of the above.

Voting resulted in # 4, above, being selected as Marty's "big news"

Yes I'm a guy, and yes I'm getting married. I'm a very lucky man on all accounts. No she's not pregnant, but we have been practicing furiously for almost two years. The wedding is in September and I hope u guys will come for the party and wish us well. Glad to help out, it's the least I can do for a great group of people. Glad to know u all. Goodnight

Great news! Congrats on all fronts! Definitely attend in Sept - no question. And "keep up" the practicing ... after the little one(s) arrive, such fun will be but a fond memory.

Dear Beijing comrades,

I'm in Beijing for a couple days and will pitch up at Back Alley on Tuesday evening at the appointed hour. Seems the regular meeting time is at best a low-grade buzz, but I'll be happy to raise a glass to anyone who shows up!

Cheers!

Hey, is the topic still alive? Any plannings for the upcoming holidays in BJ?

Hi - there may be a get-together at the Back Alley Bistro on Tuesday night - don't know, as the last several Tuesdays have been cold & wet. Best to walk/take taxi, as parking around there (even for bikes) is difficult. Same problem we had at Kro's. If you're there early enough, you'll find a place for your bike where (hopefully), nobody toys with it, or moves it.

Else, there are usually several rides happening depending on your mount. Scooters, Sport Bikes, Cruisers, Dual Sports, Dirt, Street bikes, and so on. Lots more info can usually be found on the Chinese websites (e.g., motorfans), often specific to bike type, and even model. Dealers often organize rides, as well.
