[matt999tye]

word. i would say the same for huizhou. you find anything bikewise? i'm rolling a little 125 right now, but i hope to find something bigger. let me know if you are ever in the area

hey Matt,

Zhaoqings pretty nice compared to other places I've seen. Not as ..err.. futuristic as Guangzhou but I like it here most of the time. It's pretty scenic and unpolluted, and there are some great rides through all the mountains. I see from Google maps that Huizhou is on the other side of Guangzhou. I plan on getting all legit this year, after which I'd like to start doing some proper road trips.

Not really been lookin' too hard at the mo. Not been paid properly since may so funds are low. There's an en150 suzuki another foreigner here is looking to sell, which I'll take a look at sometime soon and see if I want it or not, and then maybe work out a deal.

What do you do in huizhou? Wish I was making the kinda money necessary to purchase some of those toys in your sig ;)

[matt999tye]

Nice. Suzuki 150 would be a decent toy for these parts. Is it old?

I am just a young buck trying to make a living. Actually, I just opened up a chain of English schools under my own brand. 纽约美语。New York American English.

Nice! Congrats man! I bet that'll be keeping you busy.

The Suzuki has less than 2k on it, so it's pretty much new. 150 is ok, but I'd love something with more punch, and I can see a 250 really coming into it's own on these roads. Problem here is, anything bigger begs theft from both sides of the law :/

What sort of age range do your schools teach? I get the impression there are more bigger bikes over your way. Maybe you should give me a job.

[matt999tye]

To be honest, I will be looking for teachers around winter, so stay in touch!
we teach from 6-adult, but focus on 6-10ish. We have all adult classes as well, though.
as for the law... hey man, it's china. what is law?

you're right... I should have just cut that sentence at "begs theft."

I'm under contract to teach here until the end of this academic year. Whether I stay for another or not, I'll be free for a couple of months in Summer, so I may inquire then.

Was just taking a better look at Huizhou from gmaps satellite view. Looks way bigger than Zhaoqing, and like it could be a pretty nice city.

[matt999tye]

yeah, huizhou is fantastic. i've lived all over China and taiwan, and huizhou is the only place i could ever put down roots. most people i meet love it here. anyway, if you are ever up for a ride over here or vice versa, give me a shout. i'm always up for checkin a new place out on the bike!
