Howard Wing

Howard Wing (; as his father Ernest Wing was stationed in the city as a contractor for sailors. Howard recalled that the Chinese community in Rotterdam when he was young struggled financially and most sold peanuts along the streets; he was called pinda by locals, which made him angry. He cycled frequently when he was young because of the cycling culture of the Netherlands. In the same month, he competed at an international competition at the Herne Hill Velodrome and had to be hospitalised after he dislocated his hip during a time trial race.

After the 1936 Summer Games, he participated in eight world championships for China. He was replaced by Manthos Kaloudis of Greece at the repechage after withdrawing.

Personal life and later years Alongside his cycling career, Wing worked and owned a business that specialized in store displays and almost closed down during World War II. He emigrated to Canada in 1956 with his wife Catharina de Krijger, with whom he had a son, and set up business there. Wing resided in a retirement home at Niagara Falls, Canada, until his death on 7 March 2008, with his wife dying the year before.
