Day D
And it is here. What ? My new bike. At the moment still at the Beijing airport waiting to go through custom.
Yesterday I had only one mission - how to get bike from airport out. After making calls here and there and “wasting” half a day they realize that for sure bike is here. So I was able to do step further, to start with whole procedure about custom, papers, this and that. Biggest problem was the fact I do not speak Chinese….
At the end I decided to go through the agent. In China everything is business if you want or do not want , you have to except it.
Today the bike is going through custom and later in afternoon I should be able to pick it up. New thing, new tool…means new beginning or just continuing with some differences.
The time will give me the answer. At the moment I am just happy that the bike is here finally and I am about to leave Beijing for good. But first thing first - tomorrow I have to learn how to bike, how to start and stop. But step by step with patience everything should be OK.
Last weeks were nice, interesting but also strange. To wait once you are ready to go is hard.
