Electric bikes galore

They're all mad. Well at least severely lacking in education and respect for others.
It's no wonder they all have electric bikes as well. Probably even the beggars could afford one. The pictures are in a supermarket similar to kmart.¥2000 yuan is about $290 Australian. The pushbikes, well it is the land of bikes, but an adult bike for about $60. I wonder how long they last for.
Traffic lights mean virtually nothing, the default position for one hand seems to be on the horn. Everyone pushes and shoved and no one seems to have manners. It is a bit hard to take to start with. Most everyone just spits on the street, men AND women, usually with a great hoyking sound. Most toilets are squat and there's no toilet paper or soap, we bring our own. It is quite amazing as the place looks like a modern city.
Well, better get back to it. Food time.
