Folding Bikes

As you probably know, China has a huge population of bike riders, and you should see some of the stuff they ride, as well as carry around. A lot of them now ride mo-peds, but the other new thing is these folding bikes with the smaller wheels. My bike got stolen a while back so I decided to get one that I could keep in my room. It has six gears and moves surprisingly quickly. It also folds/unfolds in seconds! You can buy really good American made ones (that are actually cheaper there than here!) called Dahons starting at around $200 for one with gears. Cant believe more people havent cottoned on yet.

Yep - a Dahon is one of the only bikes I still have coveted for trips, etc...
