E-bikes

Suzhou, China
Thursday, February 9, 2012

We arrived in Suzhou last night, and today the basketball tournament begins. I got up early and took a stroll around before heading off to the school where the games will be played. This trip to China is my first chance to get a look at these "e-bikes" ("e" as in electric). They sneak up on you silently so it's good to keep an eye out for them.

But, wow, there is no cloud of blue smoke or rattly-roar. Very exciting!
