hey eddie nice to see you here!
- it's Yorgo BTW not jorgi (but I don't take it as a personal attack).
GO AND CHECK THAT PARK OUT
- step 1: buy a cheap chinese BMX
- step 2: take that "yellow" subway line to the north. The station is called YangWan or something. the park is in New Yang Wan city.
Waiting for subway:

- step 3: once out there forget about finding anyone speaking english, or about finding signs in anything else than chinese
- step 4: get ignored by taxis who won't stop for a foreigner anyway
- step 5: spot one of the "moto-taxis" and make some gestures to indicate you want to be taken to a skating arena. Might be harder with a bmx on your shoulder.

- step 6: ride for 20 minutes on the back fo that bike, until you reach a no-man's land with massive empty avenues crossed time by time by a lonely peasant on a bicycle

- You've arrived!


good luck
