One of my new favorite discoveries in Beijing is using bike share apps to get around. Everyone here uses them; from young people to old people, everyone is riding a scooter, bicycle, or moped. On the sidewalks you can literally see colorful bicycle after colorful bicycle, just waiting to be unlocked and ridden. The best part is that it is one of the cheapest, easiest, and most convenient ways to get around. My favorite app to use for riding a bicycle is OFO, but my all-time favorite is Mebike, which lets users unlock electric mopeds to cruise to their destination.
