Happy New Year
As relates to Chinese bikes:
2009 was a great year. I was able to spend many many hours exploring the back roads and trails on my trusty Lifan. From the deserts of Death Valley to the temperate rain forests of the Northwest. From below sea level to 10,000 in elevation. From freezing cold and snow to triple digit temperatures. Over rocks, ruts, dust, sand, mud, and pavement. The Lifan never missed a beat. 2.5 years old and 16,000 km on the clock now. May 2010 be as good. Q |

I also had an enormous amount of fun riding my Zong in 2009. Happy New Year!

Despite a crash and a divorce, 2009 was a great year. More good times to come, God willing!

I finally rode my XR250 and my wife's Beast atv this year, and I made significant progress with our other bikes / quads. I don't think that we went riding more than ten times in 2009, but there's always hope for more adventures in 2010!
Happy New Year to all; may 2010 bring peace, prosperity and health to you.

A Happy New Year to all. I didn't get to ride much in 2009 due to lack of
funds. Recently became employed again and look forward to a better 2010. My son is old enough to get his temps this year and I look forward to having a riding partner. You all stay safe and have a good year...
