Dear Sabine,
what an incredible heartwarming video you've posted today! Who knew there were so many bikes in Beijing?? I'll be showing your video to friends around the world, so don't be surprised if you get a lot of farflung hits.
thanks again!
Hello Sabine,
Unbelievable! Who thought that there are so many bikes of really all kinds in China? The community in Beijing... what a crowd. This really raises hopes, that one day China will be more open for bikers.
:clap::clap::clap:A really nice video - thanks a lot for the insight.:clap::clap::clap:
Grüsse aus dem Süden,
AW.
That was the best 9 minutes and 36 seconds of my day. :clap::clap::clap:
Thanks for sharing and all the hard work you put into making the video Sabine.
Cheers!
ChinaV
Sabine,
That's a lovely video and an incredible report! :clap:
This is definitely going on front page!
Great Work,
CC
Wow! That's a great video! ...And the music put it over the top! Thanks, CC and Sabine.
Facsinating stuff sabine, thank you for sharing!
It seems that CJs are a lot more appreciated by chinese people in Beijing. Here in suzhou they are regarded mostly as old pieces of junk that for some reason the foreigners like. Out of 50+ CJs in suzhou i think only about 3 are owned by natives.
I loved the tiny blue monkey sidecar! Any more pics of it?
There is a Biker Gathering down South China also this Weekend.
Ava send me this (translated) information:
Hello Sabine:
Morning!It was nice to see you again yesterday!
Here are some simple information about the sidecar Rally in YaoLi Jing Dezhen , Jinagxi province. Jing Dezhen is the porcelain city of China .
2010 Yaoli Jing Dezhen sidecar Rally

Yaoli is a tourist site, I searched some information and pictures ,very beautiful. Hope this information can give you a little help. But I think this time probably most Chinese people , do not know whether have foreigners go or not. Just for reference.

If things confuse please ask more help. I show some examples.
Here is "insert a link" feature used.

google-owned picasa seems to be comprehensively blocked here inside the force field. just as with flickr, youtube and other unwelcome sites.
surely you are having to use a force field tunnel to access picasa?
damn it all.
i've spent all afternoon looking at various picture hosting services -- photoshelter, photobucket, smugmug, pbase, etc -- trying to find one that works for me and pierces the force field. smugmug is looking very strong, but it's $40/year.
double damn.
how about fotki? http://host.fotki.com/
- supported formats: jpg, gif, png, jpeg, bmp, tif, psd, pcx
- no limit to how many images you can host
- no limit to image size at all
- no need to register
i use picasa for organizing and editing photos, and i there is a plugin to upload directly to fotki. (recently crashes picasa after every upload).
I thoroughly enjoyed your video of the biker gathering. I had a big smile across my face the whole time.
