Went to Temple of Godness at Waterloo street today and spotted this man with his unusual bike.
His name is Yarets. He is soo cool. He sat on a plastic chair with his bike beside him and smiled to passerbys. His bike caught my attention and i went one round checking out his happening bike.
He has big hat on the seat of his bike with a note stating to support the fuel charge. Had donated some money to him and suddenly, he stood up and shake my hands. It was a strong handshake from him. It is his way of saying thank you coz he is mute n deaf. He has on his palm his year of birth and age. He is 68yo. A while later, a little boy also dropped some money into his hat. He played joyfully with the boy while the boy's father took out a paper to copy the website. After i left, many ppl crowd around Yarets.
His website is down so i google and found these urls.

I am very amazed by his courage. Hope he can enter the World's Guiness Record.
He is a rare man who really lives his dream, not to mention he is deaf and mute.
