...and the archetype of South East Asia, David Carradine

You mean David Carradice don't you Mort? Silly him to be 'saddled' with the Wrong name

That person's relative probably owns the factory that supplied 99% of all the carbon fibre bling in the shop bonj - he was there as a mystery shopper, seeing just how much the assistants knew...
...and, if you hadn't disappeared, you would have seen his whole outfit light up as dusk approached - no need for lights at all!

Clever these 'chinese'...

He looks confused. Is that a bike shop he's standing outside...waiting for kindly bonj to offer a helping hand.

And bonj has still not told us in what way he offered help. I bet he didn't.

because he may be more naive, may not understand the country as well, may not understand the language, is keen to take advice on what the local customs are, etc.

Funny, the only Chinese person I know happens to speak immaculate English (and I gather, only basic Chinese), and was born here....

Anyway, he might have been North Korena, looking to see if they had any replacement allen bolts to hold a nuclear bomb in its housing......

could it have been James Bonj

^ Which one's 007?

Bonj was a regular TV viewer when Fu Manchu, Charlie Chan and that Emperor Ming chappie from Flash Gordon were on the telly.

This must be the chap - Bonj said it was a fairly basic bike too!

 

[yello]

Is that Sean Connery? My lord, the make up is good! I'd have never have guessed. And to think, bonj saw him in lycra at his LBS.

 

[Fnaar]

Wasn't this fella, was it?

Or were his family waiting outside for the commute home?

in the LBS yesterday I saw a chinese in full lycra roadie gear, fairly nice helmet, with a fairly new but basic looking road bike.
I wasn't sure what to make of this.

My first thought was 'A Chinese what?' Ming vase? Fried rice? Laundry?

well, that the fact that he was chinese led the sales guys to believe he was going to be easy to convince that he needed to buy loads of lycra gear whether he needed it or not.

Ahhh, it was a male something.

So being a male Chinese implies too stoopid to understand bikie speek and know one end of lycla flom other? Maybe he no speekie engrish and was deriveling number 18, number 53 and number 4 set meal to bikie shop owners and waiting around for collrect change?

Pfffft!

Wow, there's a niche market - guaranteed lycra clad takeaway delivery for really keen cyclists (but who aren't keen enough to go and pick it up themselves).


"I'll have chicken and cashew nuts, fried rice, prawn crackers and can you send the campag equipped bike please...."

Dammit, I want chinese takeaway now!
