Bicycles and metro trains
Does anyone know if you are allowed to take your bike into the metro trains? I've asked a few locals and no one seems to know for sure. Thanks. Try to avoid getting on the metro during peak hours with your bike, Beijing has already started to ban bikes on trains and metro hence we'll have to do our best to steer clear from the authorities.I usually board the first or last coach with my bike because there are fewer passengers and you can park your bike against the bulkhead's door. Try dismantling the wheels... then you have the excuse of transporting goods instead of bikes. I believe they go by the letters of the laws not the spirit of the laws. Dismantling the FRONT wheel will suffice . Usually they won't borther you if you travel during non peak hours. Thanks for the replies. They don't make it easy :( with bike, wheel and ticket going through the turnstyles! Hehe...certain balancing acts are required! is this thread dead or alive???
went to pudong and back to my place in weining road mrt station today...
my brother and i + another guy... all 3 bikes went into the train without problems from those clowns.
so i guess its alright as long as its off peak.
oh yes, we had to remove the front wheel when we went in... but after the clowns werent looking, we put the wheels on and didnt bother. It depends how you interpret "dead"..
anyhow.... during non peak hours... those jokers couldn't be borthered to stop you.. please advise if a road bike can fit into the back of a VW Santanna 2000 taxi? no worries, take off your front wheel and stuff it behind the back seats. Most Santana taxi runs on natural gas hence there's a large gas tank located behind the trunk...
