In TimeOut Beijing, the February 2014 edition, there are a couple of great articles on learning to juggle and joining a cycle group. The articles make everything easy to become a part of something exciting. If you have a bike, and it doesn’t matter if its a “Fancy fixed gear or a clunky old cruiser”, Big Dirty is the group for you. TimeOut Beijing give a great insight to the groups past and present from its beginnings as a glorified pub crawl to now where each week in summer 50-60 riders get together to ride Beijing. These juants across the city are split into two groups – the fast group, and the slow group so no matter the skill level any rider can feel welcome.
The other great article is on learning to juggle, walking into the music venue of Yugong Yuishan the writer for TimeOut Beijing was confronted with quite the circus; jugglers tossing balls high in the air, weights tethered to ropes swinging past their face and unicyclists teetering on the brink of disaster. But this wasn’t so much a circus as it was amateur after-work performers who gather every week to develop their acrobatic skills.You can join them and learn how to juggle in no-time at all! The group meets every monday at 8pm and to sign up all you need to do is email juggling@natooke.com
