Had a pretty relaxed day today, built the bike and went for a ride to make sure it was riding nicely. It was not possible to get to the venue today so in the afternoon I had a look around a few shops that were close to the hotel. All the riders have arrived now. There was a large welcome party tonight with plenty of traditional chinese food! Some of the thing scott and I had were, duck toung, dove, fish + duck heads, pigs foot, plenty of raw fish and cows penis!!! Just off to have a drink with scott, comas, alonsa and gali (Spanish riders) The first qualification is tomorrow so I will let you all know how it goes. Ben.
