Sorry to hear your Shanghai Blues. I've always thought of Shanghai as motorcycle purgatory. Even if you can afford the outrageous and coveted legal Shanghai motorcycle plate, there's no good riding without burning through several hours of pavement. I've never been able to understand why people choose to live in that city when they have so many better choices. I know most people end up going there for work, but I just never could understand the attraction of the area.

08-19-2017, 03:43 PMYeah, I used to live in a small town in Hunan. Said to myself I'd never live in Shanghai cos it's just so hmmm.. Comfortable.. Not representative of China. But I moved here for a job. Have considered relocating to chongqing for biking.. Or even yunnan or guilin...there is even a bike related gig in guilin (tour guiding on cj750s) available. We'll see. I think that up by shuben in Beijing, there is also excellent riding to be had. Any riders in 东北 can comment on the situation up there? (I guess the winters preclude riding for large portions of the year)

Very correct, ChinaV!
Thats why, as a motorcycle enthusiast, I never accepted a job in SH. I'd even prefer a 2nd tier city over it.
With this hobby there is no enjoyment for spare time at that location.
So, Metalmonkey should find a job e.g. in Chengdu or Wuhan, Beijing or Shenyang. All better than SH

10-03-2017, 04:16 PMUpdate, got my replacement plate- took 41 days from date of loss. Except I went to ride the bike- no blue book, after a frantic late night, then the next day, it transpired the agent had forgotten to send it. Now in the post. Crikey after all this, the X2 is gonna have to take me on some mad adventures to make up for the hurdles. Winter coming so plans may be put off until next year. Sooooo jealous of the Qinghai ride report elsewhere here. Guess the time is never perfectly right. Just have to go.
