How I meet them
They were cycling on road No.1 Butterworth - Ipoh near Sungai Bakap,
Nibong Tebal, Penang. One of my spies saw them and gave me call. Hey!
David there are some cyclist heading to
Parit Buntar, Perak. At that time I was running with my Hash House Harrier
members. I told my friend (spy) that I am not free now, talk to them and
bring to my house. He said no David my English is not good. So I call my
wife to wait at the junction near my house. This is her first time to
invited cyclist. She wait for about 1hr, and finally saw them. And she
try to stop them, all didn't stop but one. She explain to him and they
came to my Guesthouse and stay for eight
days. My wife and children had a nice time with them and me too.
What they do
They cycle from town to town, looking for a place to stay,
co-operating with locals and the community and performing in the street or at a
pre-arranged locations (usually some kind of Social centre) and giving workshops
after the event if we have time. Getting up to 15 people on working bikes, fed,
amused, happy, well rested and ready to perform to their best for popcorn is a
vast achievement in itself! The show has to be seen to be believed - it involves
live music, live accidents, clowning, tightrope, monocycling, bike jousting,
diabolo, juggling, acrobatics, magic, fire spitting and dancing, acrobalance,
trapeze and incredible jumping mad Mexican bean chaos! It is a great experience
meeting people from a vastly varied ways of life, learning about other
attitudes, languages, history, the world today, nature and how to keep a team of
clueless foreigners, entertaining, laughing and creating with a bunch of junk we
carry with us.
