I'm in China for the first time. I've been totally blown away by what I've seen. The people are so awesome. I don't think I've ever met a more social, friendly and accepting population traveling. I haven't done too many touristy things. I'm here working, but I thought I'd show some countryside bike culture. I also got to visit the Duck Dealer and Yam dealer. Very cool guys.

Lane sharing OK  [thumbsup] in both directions!



Car pooling, what ever. BIKE POOLING!   [thumbsup] I saw 5 on a bike. Couldn't get the shot


Moding - for the weather. I saw a bunch of these actually. a popular Mod.


Duck Dealer


Yam dealer


Not to color the place the wrong way. The city is growing beyond anything I've imagined.
This small town of 10,000,000 started construction in 1989.
They go BIG here. The Shenshen skyline is giving Manhattan a run for it's money, and the light show at night puts Los Vegas to shame.
This airport sized building is a Library bookstore. "Massive skyscraper" is for wimps here. Colossal is the new it word.

LOL @ Yam dealer.  Looks tasty!

Yes, some Chinese cities are growing beyond believe, especially Shanghai.  Large sections of the old city were taken back by the Chinese government over the past 2 decades to make way for the modern Shanghai.  Since Chinese citizens aren't allow to own the land, it was fairly easy for the government re-claim the land...  only in Chinese where mega cities can be built over night.
