Nice! I always like your ride reviews. Was that a Carlsberg Beer sign in post #5 second picture down?
Also just as a curiosity... any idea where the Raleigh bicycle plant was in Malaysia back in the 1970's? I have a Raleigh Sports Standard that was built in Malaysia in 1971 or so.

The "Carlsberg" signage indicated that there is a Seafood restaurant around the corner. This is very typical along the West Coast towns of Peninsular Malaysia..

Many thanks. Here my small daughter is a fan of yours. She points "biiiiiiiiike", "waaaaaater" (in Spanish, of course). Great to show the two of you enjoying with bikes in the other side of the world.
