Mom and Dad, I promise I will never do this again, yes it was stupid, but my friends and I just wanted to blend in with the local folks.... riding motorbikes in China, not such a good idea, but the two days that i spent cruising around the island, where some of the greatest times I have had in China thus far.
I know this picture is a bit blurred but in the bottom right hand corner is a small red wire... so the best thing about these bikes was the fact that that wire once tapped to the handle bar was the horn. It was hilarious! only in china
Brake down number one.... thank goodness we were still in town, so it only took a few minutes to switch and get a new motorcycle.
Break down number two... not so lucky. We were about an hour and half or so out of the town, in a local village, it took about an hour to find someone to change the flat tire. Here we are stranded...
When stranded on a foreign island, best thing to do is take a walk
The kid in the background came to pick up his Dad,
who fixed our flat tire. I dont even want to know how young he was riding the cycle!
Dalton attempting to bargain, did not work too well
Back up and running, thank goodness
we made it home right as the sun set!
