The Bike Guard


I used to think that people would leave their bikes in large piles all over.  Then I realized someone guards the bikes.  Today as I biked to my local grocery store I noticed this pen of bikes and a man standing guard.  I thought I had to pay him to watch my bike, but he did it for free.  It must be a service the grocery store provides.  He was very happy to get his picture taken.

That's so nice! Did you buy a bike when you got to China, or did someone give it to you?

Yeah I bought one when I arrived. I feel safer somehow wandering about the city on a bike versus walking.
