Cycling releated stuff in Hong Kong, Shanghai, London, Warsaw, Frankfurt
I've dreaded the coming of the last 2 weeks of May and June all year as my cycling season is going to take a major break. 
Between business trips & vacation, I will not be on my bike for 5 of the next 6 weeks. I suppose I can ride in the hotel gym and much as I can but its not the same
So, I suppose its time for global bike shopping/sight seeing! Does anyone have any suggestions for "cycling" related shopping/tourism in Hong Kong, Shanghai, London, Warsaw, G'dansk, Frankfurt? Also, I may need to go to Bombay India in July.
Thanks
TJ

I think it is Tuesday night in Frankfort cylists, bladers etc. take over the streets at about 7 PM. I could be wrong on the details, but I know it is one night of the week. Kind of a German Critical Mass with much less hassle. You have my sympathy if you do have to go to Bombay.

Doh! I'm into Frankfurt on Sunday afternoon and I fly out Tuesday evening.
Bombay might be cool. I've never been there and I like Indian cusine. I thnk the road bike scene there would suck though...
Has there ever been any Pro Cyclists from India?

I have actually been wondering about Hong Kong as well. I'm going to be there for 5 days in August in a part of a field course I'm taking, and and suggestions would be great.

Here's a list of 1800 manufacturers in east Asia. Hopefully a couple of them could be near to your travels.
