Hello and welcome to the Pink Bike podcast live, not live, but recorded in a hotel room in

Taipei, Taiwan.

We are here.

We is me, Dario de Julio, God Emperor Brian Park, and Master of All Things Road and Gravel, Alvin Holbrook from our sister publication

fellow. Howdy y'all? I'm co-opting Texas now, so. He's a Texan boy. I'm not. Please don't

say that. But prospective Texan. Yeah, potentially, We're not. But perspective Texan.

Yeah.

Potentially.

Potential.

It's Alvin Holbrook.

We are here for the Taipei cycle show, an annual gathering of manufacturers and brands and journalists

and seemingly a bunch of characters that I'm supposed to know,

but I don't.

It's a real to do.

We've been here for a few days covering the show, finding all the good tidbits, and we are

going to be doing a big recap today of what we learned, what we saw, some of our favorite tech from the show, favorite

products, and a little bit about the travels that we've done on both sides of the show as well,

because Taiwan is rather interesting, it turns out.

It's a lot of fun.

Yeah.

Yeah.

It's a lot more fun than the media would tell you.
