Dear Clegg,

I rolled up next to a nice looking Qingqi a while back on Wuzhong Lu, and asked the guy where he bought it. He said there was a dealer near there. I didn't get the address but made a mental note to check it out. I remember chasing down a list of putative dealers here in Shanghai, and maybe even posting it in MCM. Unless it's been leveled for a new overpriced housing estate, the place the guy mentioned should be out in the general vicinity of the Dragon Rider shop at 2632 Wuzhong Lu (吴中路 2632号), somewhere near the Middle Ring.

Google lists the following locations:
上海轻骑摩托车专卖有限公司,浦建路111号, Pudong Xinqu, Shanghai - 021-58898693
轻骑摩托车专卖店,张杨路1685号, Pudong Xinqu, Shanghai
东余杭路附近, Hongkou, Shanghai
Alas, none is anywhere near Wuzhong Lu. Are any of these the ones you tried to find? Did you try that phone number?

Say, isn't Felix waiting for delivery of a new Qingqi? (Felix is out doing sidecar tours in the rain this morning, but hopefully he can chime in on the source of his new ride.)

Hope you find something! I'll nose around too.

cheers
