Though the number of cycle owners in China is increasing by leaps and bounds, yet very few owners make real use of their equipment. For instance, last year more than 100 million bicycles were sold, but not more than 10 million owners cycle down to their workplace at least twice a week or use it for physical exercise at least thrice a week.
