Japan is crazy about biking!! It's fabulous, because it seems like a great way to get round. EVERYONE rides these 80s-looking bikes...police, girls in high heels, businessmen...everyone! They also ride them to the subway and leave them there for the day, hobbled by the hundreds. Seems like a good system to me! In Korea, in the cities anyway, only the hard-core athletes bike, with tons of safety equipment I might add. I myself wouldn't chance it here unless I was wanting a close encounter with Heaven's gates.
