"kingdom of bicycles"
"Do in China as the Chinese do,"
five-speedI heard about China being the "kingdom of bicycles". Now I know this is no exaggeration. Everybody rides a bike here.
Yes, for many of us, cycling has become a way of life. Some of my American friends feel kind of alienated from the local people if they go around only in a car instead of on a bike. They often ride a bicycle for a change.
Yes, this is exactly what I felt during my first two months here. Well, "Do in China as the Chinese do," I said to myself. I went to a bike store and bought a five-speed mountain bike. This has become my primary means of transportation in China. I ride it to school, to work, to the beaches and mountains. You find me everywhere on the bike. I'm looking forward to a cycling trip around the country some day.
Terrific! Outdoor cycling will make you healthy and strong.
