Late August 2014 the Beijing Municipality Traffic Management Bureau http://www.bjjtgl.gov.cn launched a new campaign and enforces some regulations and restrictions to use motorbikes and tricycles within the 6th.

Beijing Ring Road 4) 3-wheeled carts (not sidecars) 100 CNY traffic ticket fine and 3 points on divers license (that latter is what hurts as by 12 points the driver license is confiscated), riders and police reporting that traffic cams are being used as well.....

Chinese New Year, annual week long public holiday, besides waking up the neighbourhood with fireworks ~ strippin' time for some spring cleaning and detailing as unpredictable crappy rainy weather.... ....to be continued....
Maintenance, spring cleaning & detailing ~ all done and ready to rock n' roll again after a quick 50k's shakedown run this afternoon...
