Hey good to hear from you. I'm going to be away until January but would love to go hunting then. As far as I know there are only a handful of us here who mountain bike, but we're all keen. Hopefully we can organise through this thread and start getting more of a community together.
Not sure what to do about the postage, but you'd be better off buying only the knives you need; for 300kuai you can get 2 or 3 half decent knives, or a box full of crap ones.
Right, problem solved. I think.
Greg is right about skyscanner, I used it to find the same flight and booked through opodo.co.uk. No passport number needed.
I'm hoping there will be other cycling folks there and so other bikes to lock together....
No results found.
I've been eating here regularly for a year now and my opinion of it keeps getting better. The staff and owners are lovely welcoming people, and the food is excellent.
It's the only Chinese restaurant in Kunming where I can be confident that I'm not ingesting large amounts of agricultural poison along with my food.
Go there. Often.
I'm afraid that I'm the problem. I'm not the boss, but I bake the bread.
I'm quite inconsistent and unreliable.
The thing is, I don't do the same things everyday and get the bread out at the same time everyday. I understand the danger in this, but I can't stop trying new things. Often, those experiments fail, or go slower than I hoped. But I am learning from them.
I'm trying to organise something so that hopefully, soon, things will settle into a routine.
Please bear with me.
Proper cool.
Hard to think of a reason not to give Dune a five star review. The owners are very friendly and provide excellent service, as do the staff.
The noodles are decent, and give one a good impression of the kitchen; I won't be afraid to sample other dishes on the menu.
The main event though is the beer selection, which is one of the best in town.
A great spot to sit in the afternoon sun sipping a good beer.
I am a great lover of Indian food, so it is with a heavy heart that I see people here rate this place. In short, the food is very bad. To sell it as "authentic Indian cuisine" is poor.
Last time I went I wrote a note offering to teach the chefs some recipes that I know are very good. I saw the staff throw my note in a bin. Not cool.

Around Town: Biking the trails of Changchong Mountain
Posted bydbfan,
This trail is pretty much impossible to find without someone to show you. Get in touch, I'll have lots of time in the next few weeks. Alternatively go on one of the Xiong Brothers group rides on Saturday morning (it's bloody slow, but at least you'll learn some trails).
