So this has nothing to do with China's environment--except for maybe that riding bicycles is good for the earth--but I wanted to post this photo of my really cool bike lock.
When I bought the lock from the bicycle 师傅* he kept saying that it was 很方便, or "very convenient." I quickly saw what he meant! The lock is a metal circle that is permanently attached to the frame of the bike around the wheel, and opens/closes very easily with a key. It's so much better than using a U-lock.
I'm going to write a heartfelt ballad about how much I love this bike lock. I want to sky-write a marriage proposal to this bike lock, and then take it to Canada and marry it. This bike lock and I have a future together. (At least until someone steals my bike, which is apparently 99.9% likely to happen.)
