Sorry about that, it was not my intention to lecture anybody, although rereading my latest posts looks like it, he he he....
Many people, even people that have spent some time here are not completely aware of the consequences, specially when it is actually cheaper/easier to choose the dark side... Sorry if I was overstepping, I was just exposing some facts I was not aware of when I first arrived Beijing.
That being said, hope you find something suitable and enjoy the ride. I feel quite jealous! I have small kids so I won't be able to do some riding like that for a while...
