To our readers/visitors,
Since our inception in January 2012, we’ve had articles that came up shooting right and left, some came up to be at two opposite poles of the topic. It made some of our visitors quite puzzled as to why we are here and what’s the sole purpose of Edohaus. With that said, our website will be having a major overhaul in a couple of weeks time. From branding, layout to the whole theme will all be changed to build a better, stronger, and a more user-friendly blog site.

Thank you very much for your patronage!

Being a guy who likes anything with wheels on it, I purchased a Dahon Speed D7 Folding Bike that I can use to go in and around the city I live in. Well, that’s not just the case; other friends of mine are into bike-craze as of late. Mountain bikes, foldable bikes, and even the colorful fixie (fixed-gear bicycle), you name it.

作为一个喜爱所有带轮子东西的男人，我买了一辆大行牌D7型折叠自行车，这样就可以在我住的城市里骑骑逛逛。好啦，我承认这不是唯一要买这货的原因，最近其他死党也迷上了自行车，我也跟着玩儿玩儿。山地自行车、折叠自行车、亦或是五彩缤纷的fixie(死飞)牌定速自行车，只要是你能说出来的，咱这儿都有。

Although driving a car sure is fun, and effortless, it doesn’t provide close contact with your environment, or what you’d call exposure to the elements. Here are some of the listed benefits of cycling.

虽然开车是很爽，而且还不费力气，但是躲在车里却不能让你亲近大自然，感受阳光与微风的轻抚。接下来，请让我跟大家分享分享骑自行车的几点好处吧。

1. Cycling is a simple exercise.

True, we see a lot of ladies and gents who are health conscious; they go to the gym, do some lifts, jog on treadmills, or even do some cycling on a stationary bicycle. The fact is you need to pay a premium to use all the facilities. Not only that, you need to drag yourself to the gym. How many times have you denied yourself a good stretching just because the gym is a few miles away?

Imagine yourself, you need to buy some fruits at your local grocery store, you suit up, took your bicycle out for a spin. Yes, you travel from point A to point B but you do it with exercise. While other sports and recreation demand practice and skill, cycling, once learned, you will never forget.

骑自行车是一项简单的运动

如今，我们看到许多美女帅哥都非常关注健康，他们去健身房举重，在跑步机上慢跑，在固定式自行车训练器上锻炼身体。然而可别忘了，你可是要付了年费才能享用这些设备。不止如此，你还得拽着自己疲惫的身躯去健身房。让我问问你，已经有多少次因为健身房太远这个借口而没去好好锻炼了？

想象一下，你打算去超市买些水果。你穿好衣服后、骑上自行车，随心所欲想去哪儿买就去哪儿买。是啦，你只是从A点骑到B点，似乎没什么挑战性，但你在这个过程中也锻炼了身体呀。不像其他运动那样需要练习或特别的技巧，骑自行车这项技能，一经习得便永生不忘。

2. Cycling strengthen cardiovascular system, increases your stamina

In this day and age where people go to work, sit on their office chair for a good 7-8 hours each day. It may not look harmful but it can lead to a lot of diseases, and problems. Believe it or not, sitting kills. Read more

排名前五男人不该省的

OKAY. Time to take a breather from all the iron clad engine talk and focus our attention to another subject that men should also take heed of, besides cars.

好啦。该从铁皮子引擎话题歇歇，让我们来看看除了汽车以外，还有另一个男人不可忽略的话题。

Growing up, me and my siblings were brought up being frugal. And that’s because my parents have always been living a simple and yet meaningful life. When I was at my kinder age, I tend to favor the cheaper (not cheapest) version of everything else. Without really realizing why certain things are way more expensive than others. Is it the label? The guaranteed quality? Or the supply versus demand? Maybe all of the above, I don’t know. But as I come to think of it now, price doesn’t necessarily equate to value and worth. There are things in life that we should never really take advantage of. Certain things are expensive because of the quality and impeccable design.

从小到大，我和我的兄弟姐妹们都被教导要学会节俭。那是因为我的父母总是过着简单却有意义的生活。当我上幼稚园时，我总是喜欢所有便宜的（但不是最便宜的）东西。没有真正意识到为什么一些商品总比其他商品贵得多。是因为品牌效应吗？是因为有保证的质量？还是供求失衡的缘故？或许以上的原因都有吧，我也不知道。但当我现在想这个问题时，发现价格并不必须等于价值。生活当中我们不该为所有东西的价格斤斤计较。一些商品价格高昂的原因在于质量以及其完美无瑕的设计。

It’s true what they say that shoes can tell you a lot about the person. I second that motion. Read more

Power, Beauty, Soul. Three words that epitomize what the modern Aston Martin cars are all about.  Similarly, an Italian coach-builder and a design consultancy, Zagato, have all the heritage of streamline aerodynamics and lightweight cars. Both then have collaborated to create the fast and nimble, Aston Martin DB4 GT Zagato, a car that was raced during the 1961 24 Hours of Le Mans.

震撼，优雅，牵魂。这三个词概括了阿斯顿·马丁车的所有。另外，意大利车身设计和顾问公司扎加托传承所有流线型空气动力学和轻巧型轿车的传统。于是，他们俩一起合作，创造出轻巧敏捷的阿斯顿·马丁 DB4 GT 扎加托。这辆车曾参加了1961年法国勒芒24小时赛车耐力赛。

Fast forward to today, to celebrate its 50 years partnership they released the Aston Martin V12 Zagato, Read more
