What the hell, I thought we were friends, you could have at least sent me a PM to discuss these concerns of yours!

I can take a shit but I don't need government legal status to do it.

Yes of course everything everywhere is just like Beijing in the 1970's we should be very careful to shrink and hide, what if the government spies are watching? Or maybe in reality only care if there is an accident. How long have you been living here? You seem way too paranoid.

Possibly if we lived in Beijing we would be leaning our heads too far out of the window, but we don't. Every province and city is administered differently, what may be highly illegal or strictly forbidden in one place, no one cares about in another, or is only enforced on a 'purge' basis. Come here see the Chinese riders with no plates, no insurance, no helmet, the local motorcycle shop selling stolen Hong Kong bikes (again with no insurance or plates). The Chinese riders, many of whom ride unregistered BMW's and Harleys bought in Beijing, unregistered because that would double the cost of the bike. Chinese riders routinely do illegal things everywhere, get a grip, understand the country the way it really is. Many times in the countryside it takes a while to spot a registered bike!

Yes, I mean it is an exclusive club they have let you join, with all those other fantastic riders huh? I mean people with only a European or American license for example, they really aren't up to the 'challenge' in the same way you are, are they? You're a much better rider because the Chinese government have been just so super wonderful and kind to give you a laminated photocard!

You and some others seem to believe that you are special and exclusive somehow. It seems you are so pissed off because you perceive that other people are trying to damage your exclusive status.
