I used to have a similar (I think) feeling when looking out from an airplane at vast cultivated agricultural areas that appear as orderly patches/strips of land … I found it aestehtically appealing … when later I learned that the farming techniques which generate that “beauty” are actually destructive … that what I consider to be beautiful is an artifact of destruction … it made me reflect on aesthetics .. my own and in general … and that led down a fascinating rabbit hole!
It looks like they’re breeding. It’s a shame they don’t donate them to poverty-stricken countries in Africa where children have to walk long distances to get to school.
Dang. Maybe we can cut the frames down and weld them together and insulate something with them? We’ll be rich I tell ya!
I haven’t tried the ones from the Chinese companies yet, but I really like the ones from LimeBike
I live in China and the problem is not over-supply, its bad distribution.
That’s a lot of bikes! Impressive.
We need that here in the Philippines.
