Shocked

It was shocking to see this sign nailed to a tree along a street in KL:

I much rather hear birds chirping during my morning walks than the sound of engines from vehicles zooming by.

Following the crowd and taking a break

The train doors opened, spewing throngs of commuters onto the railway station's platform. Everyone rushed to one direction - the stairs heading out of the station. I, too, followed the mob of rushing crowd.

Yes! It has been three months since I started following the crowd again: rejoining the world of salaried workers - taking a break from my carefree Bohemian lifestyle.

I wonder. Is this a break from my Bohemian lifestyle? Or was my Bohemian lifestyle is a break from reality of life?

Hopefully, in this new job - where everyone in the office (except the manager) packs and leaves at 5.15pm - I won't relapse into being a workaholic again. 

Black Beauty - visual inspection

More than 6 months and about 200km later, it was time for visual inspection of Black Beauty.

There are scratches:

Chipped paint coat:

The steel that was suppose to protect the chainring when Black Beauty is folded

Hand grip are still good!

Ergonomic handgrip

All the joints on the frame are still intact.

The neat welds on the frame

Other than that, Black Beauty still rides as good as new. Looking forward to more adventure with Black Beauty!
