Comes and Goes!
Hi everyone,
Beijing’s sun is letting us know what ‘killing summer’ is, everyone is already tired before enjoying the summer… But we are not! Let’s Rock’ n Roll Babe! Summer is the best season for all riders! But still, weather is really getting hotter and hot, hope you guys be aware of getting a sunstroke.
However hot it is we just can’t stop our plans, we are all fired up!(am I right?). Beijing was under attack by the unpredicted, biggest heavy rain in history last week, and we were unable to go out. At least we got enough water! I heard on that rainy day, some crazy fixed gear riders went outside for wet weather riding. They rode from Wudaokou to Sanlitun! It is okay what kind of riding style you prefer. Just make sure that your bike is in fine condition, come to Natooke have your bike checked by their qualified crew and say hello. After that, it will be great if you enjoy events mentioned below.

Goodbye Brad
Our Brad, who always welcomed everyone with a smile, has left (boo hoo). He left Beijing with good memories about us and after fine trip with his mom. It’s sad that we can’t see him around Beijing. But don’t worry he is just fine! His “Facebook” status said: “I’m back in land of freedom”.
Interesting Bikes
Two Wheels, One Frame, One Rider. Same concept, Diferent in style! Check out these two converted bikes. Master Liu got new fixed gear bike, not loosing a bit of Beijing’s taste! Fede made a new tall bike out of two MTB frames.
