dirty, it is going to smell like tofu everywhere, its going to be just a chaos of factories

everywhere, and no. I had no clue where I was going.

Being in the city and being so close to the trail is unique I think. And the view at the

end was just perfect you know. You have the industry, you have people working, and I am

right there just riding my bike you know? It's awesome. It's really peaceful I think.

It was crazy. Like roots and nice dirt and rocks. Mountains are huge; we were driving up the hill.

Obviously it was raining but not too cold, perfect conditions for riding.

And I met all these crazy riders you know? Even from outside of Taipei they were coming

just to ride because they ride every weekend and all of a sudden we show up. The only thing

they want is to ride with you and they are proud that you come to their trail.

"A sunny day here in Taiwan"

Everyone from Lezyne asked me if I would be interested to come to the bike show in Taipei.

Obviously had never been here and wanted know how is the show, and take the opportunity

as well to meet the crew here at Lezyne Taiwan. Because I am with Lezyne from almost day one.

I wanted to see how it works,

"factory tour"

and what is behind those doors.

Work conditions are perfect, beautiful building, people are just amazing. I can't believe the

Taiwanese team from Lezyne are really nice. I'm really surprised how everything is so

perfect and everyone, the team is connected in between the U.S. and here, how they work

on products and I am really impressed. Really high engineering.

Today when I saw that pump like all black and we could laser the name of my signature

and my team logo on it, it was cool. Its not every day we could do stuff like this I would

never imagine I could have this on a pump. *laughing* its nice.

And tonight we are going to check out the night market, and I am really excited about this.

"they left... they forgot the bones."

*coughing* "it's spicy"

Definitely to meet all the Lezyne Crew and all the fans who were expecting me to come to Taiwan was definitely something really cool.

I could learn about the country, about my fans here and, yeah! I learned a lot about Taiwan.
