Taichung Bike Week, which took place in the heartland of the Taiwanese bicycle manufacturing industry earlier this month, will be held two weeks earlier next year to fit more judiciously with the schedules of European as well as U.S. companies. Based on discussions with exhibitors and visitors, the organizers decided to hold next year's fair in the four days starting on Nov. 13. This year's Taichung Bike Week drew nearly 2,500 people at three hotels in the city, up from 1,500 visitors the previous year.
