Re: How do you write the following in Chinese?

Thanks Maux, it was a lot of hard work. I spent more time writing and mucking around with photos than I did on the bike:eek2:.

I'm always shocked/impressed when I see Chinese welders at work. I wonder how long a welder's eyes last when they don't use the right protection.

Cheers! Lulu was the one to have the foresight to take the time to take pictures and video. At that point nothing mattered more to me than to get to the end of the road.
