Simplicity is the Key to Successful Living...

I should mention, big cities in China are dominated more and more by cars in these times, it's not be best example.

I've been in Beijing all week. Rush hour traffic jams are the norm these days as car ownership is increasing at a startling rate. I saw plenty of cyclists but nowhere near as many as I was expecting. A colleague I was with first visited China 12 years ago and he's amazed, and saddened, by the rise of car usage and the decline of cycling.
