Beijing Cyclist vs. Hangzhou: My 'Darkest Hour' (WTF Edition)

[Jo Douglas]

Exactly! He just stayed silent when I called him out, then ran a red light and sped off. I was so furious!

[Leticia Ritchie]

Many of those who spit are young people, as are those who damage willow trees or pick osmanthus flowers. Their behavior is appallingly poor, and they're completely shameless. As a local, I call out every single one I see.

[Dallas Durgan]

Exactly! We shouldn't tolerate such behavior!!!

[Beulah Koelpin]

I planned to pick up my bike yesterday, but both shops I checked were out of stock.

[Marcos Goodwin]

Is it one of those trending 'influencer' models? Why is it in such high demand?

[April Corwin]

You're living such a comfortable life! I lived in Beijing for a month and a half and visit Hangzhou frequently; I'm practically a Hangzhou local at heart. On weekends, I just drive over, go for a hike, and enjoy the lake.

[Delia Jast]

Where are you coming from that it's so close by?

[Tanya Bogisich IV]

Spitting and smoking are really exhausting to deal with. You encounter it whether you're walking by West Lake or the Qiantang River. It's so frustrating.

[Morris Schneider]

Sigh. Public etiquette and civic-mindedness still have a long way to go.

[Christina Altenwerth]

Xixi Wetland, particularly Fu Causeway!
