There is a public bike service here and it is called Mobike. I like their service because it is not expensive at all. It costs no more than $0.10 for half an hour. It is not expensive at all. I think it can somewhat encouage people try to use more greenery transportation.
Now it offers three days for riding free of charge. That's so cool! This is why today I went to work by bike

I have never seen so many bicycles in my life as I saw in China!

@garymarsh6 No wonder China has changed a lot as time goes by.

We have a bike service here too. It is more expensive than that one though.

Here the children who under 12 years old are not allowed to ride a bike to the street because it is dangerous. I don't let my child ride it to go to school. But we can ride it like a sightseeing trip to some peaceful places in my city

It is something environmental friendly! If more and more people go to work by bike,there will be less and less smog in cities.

@changjiangzhibin89 Even the small cities like Nanning, Haikou etc. The Mobikes are available there. So I think your city will have such kind of service soon.

That is definitely very cool!
Are the bikes in good condition?
I wish that something like that was done here. It would encourage exercise!

@youless No, not everyone is kind and considerate of others properties. I sitll think it's quite a good price considering the price could be higher to maintain the bikes good working condition.

Wish there were more countries that did this. We have cycles on hire but not many are seen riding them.

@youless I never heard of it. SF is about 6 hours or so away :) I cannot believe the price to rent is a good deal there.
