Links for September 12, 2017: Little Library Locator, Kerry to Cannondale's rescue, bike manners in China, and ICT flash dine

September 12, 2017

Ever wonder where to find a little library near your house? My 10-year old did. She found the answer at Little Locator.

Did John Kerry help save Cannondale-Drapac?

If so, bravo, Mr. Secretary. With Rigoberto Uran's podium at the 2017 Tour de France, things are looking up for one of only two American-sponsored teams in the UCI peleton.

Are stationless bike shares brining out people's bad manners in China?

I've never traveled to China, but my hunch is that the bikes being scattered all over Beijing have a lot more to do with 1) a lot of people in a small space, and 2) the Wild West unregulated atmosphere of bike shares there:

In many cities, the supply of bicycles far exceeds demand, bringing chaos to sidewalks, bus stops and intersections and prompting grumbles that excessive competitiveness — seen as a national trait — is spoiling a good thing. In Shanghai, where officials have struggled to maintain order, there is now one shared bike for every 16 people, according to government statistics.
In some places, the authorities have confiscated tens of thousands of bicycles and imposed parking restrictions. News outlets have documented the waste with astounding images of mountains of candy-colored bicycles, each hue representing a different bike-share company.

I'm signed up for the ICT Flash Dine. You should sign up, too:
