Millions of bicycles

Millions of bicycles

[March, 2011] When I went to China long time ago, I was overwhelmed by the number of bicycles.

But China has achieved economic development and bicycles are being replaced by cars.

Now the Netherlands must be the country with the most bicycles.

There are full of bicycle roads in Amsterdam and if you walk there by mistake, you will be run over by a bicycle or two.

If I stayed one more day in that city, I would have been run over, I am sure.

The parking near the station was like a huge metal scrap yard.

I thought they must have some system there to find and take your own bicycle smoothly, but I saw a man pulling his by pushing over others’ bicycles.
