Once upon a time, when visiting Xiamen, tourists with Yaxing and fun would definitely come to the famous Huandao Road - riding a colorful sightseeing bicycle with two or three seats, blowing the sea breeze all the way, leisurely, willful cycling, it was really comfortable. And in the "peak period" - every weekend, Xiamen citizens and outsiders will also call friends or a number of families to "fight", so along the ring road in groups, the mighty cycling team, magnificent, like a beautiful landscape, so, to Xiamen this "business card" icing on the cake, make it more loud, more grounded, more worthy of the name, can be described as famous, scenery and infinite scenery.
But now, in the long ring road but difficult to find the wonderful shape of the sightseeing bicycle, it is no longer beautiful, the decline and withering - the root cause is that first the government's convenience measures - the "public bicycle rental system" appeared at the right time, and then the large-scale "invasion" of shared bicycles, encircling and blocking, front and rear clamping, so that it only has the ability to parry, there is no way to fight back, and quickly defeat - can only let other things invade its territory, and can no longer lead the coquette of the ring road alone. It seems that it is all metabolism, and the progress of the times has caused it "trouble".
Compared with the rental cost of sightseeing bicycles for tens of yuan an hour, whether it is a public bicycle or a shared bicycle, their cost performance is obviously much higher. Before the emergence of shared bicycles, Xiamen first had a "public bicycle system", which is actually "sharing" - citizens pay a deposit of 400 yuan (now as long as the "egret" - good credit, you can be free of deposit), swipe the e-pass card to use the car, free riding within an hour, as long as you pay attention to a little strategy, riding for a few hours does not need to spend half a dime. It's just a fixed place to pick up the bike, return the bike at a fixed location, and pick up and place the bicycle at the "fixed pile". And earlier, if you want to ride, you have to pay for a car out of your own pocket - early bicycles were still one of several big "luxuries", cattle are very good, still adhere to the "old stubborn" use of their own bicycles, but also have to worry about its foothold, go out and care whether it is locked.
As for bike-sharing, it's not to mention – it's convenient and cheap. For some people, weekday life is free and unrestrained, at this time the way of sharing bicycles is very suitable for them - because it is too convenient, convenient to you to take and park, you can walk on the street casually, you can see its figure at any time, as long as you scan its QR code, you can use it immediately, you can ride how you like, ride wherever you like, ride tired, ride enough, ride too much to ride, you can stop immediately, park it casually; It is too cheap, cheap to the popular, universal, just at the beginning of several shared bicycle operators competing with each other, competing for customers, providing users with many discounts, so that users get a lot of benefits - less deposit or no deposit, provide monthly pass, season card, free card, many discounts, more benefits. Due to these significant features and advantages of shared bicycles, it must be said that for a long time, "shared bicycles" are difficult to change - except for its appearance, such as changes in shape, it is indeed difficult to imagine what changes it can have, let alone be replaced by others.
Under the impact of the public bicycles provided by the previous government, especially the "dexterous" shared bicycles, the market for sightseeing bicycles has almost disappeared, and there are few businesses at the end of the day, and the merchants can be described as bleak operations, even so, they are barely maintained, still sticking to it, doing their best to provide personalized services for tourists - some needs of specific groups of people, such as couples' double seats, 20 yuan / car, 5 yuan every 30 minutes after an hour, triple seats for small families, 30 yuan / car, 10 yuan every 30 minutes after an hour, This is also its advantage - shared bicycles can only be ridden alone (except for a few children sitting in the "vegetable basket" in front of the car), and if you want to "be together", you have to ride a sightseeing bike. Because the sightseeing bicycles were snubbed by people, the idle sightseeing bicycles became a burden for the business, and they felt inappropriate where to put them, and some simply threw two and three in the west and stored them at will - it really became a decoration, and the relevant departments did not clean up. Of course, if the sightseeing bicycle is seventy percent new, complete and not damaged, stay there in a regular manner, and the surrounding scenery - the sea, beach, pavilions, flowers and trees, etc., more or less also have the role of decoration, forming a different picture, but it can not bear the long-term grinding, wind and sun of nature washing.
Similarly, the former huge self-employed ones, many of whom were local unlicensed operators, have also become yesterday's "yellow flowers" and past "stars". Earlier, the relevant departments regularly carried out regular or irregular clean-up and rectification - the two sides staged a "cat and mouse" drama without interruption, but now, these "persistent" operators no longer need the time-consuming and laborious efforts of the relevant departments, and they consciously and voluntarily "put the knife and gun into storage" and wisely withdraw from the historical stage on their own. Now, all that can be seen is Xiamen Dabaicheng, and there are a very small number of people - mostly foreigners, doing the business of renting sightseeing bicycles - a few sparse cars parked next to the bus stop, and the stall owners are unhurriedly leaning on the circular stone railing, patiently waiting for the business to come - that is, they do not believe in evil, and firmly believe that "business will not be so bad!" Of course, they have the "ability" to deal with the challenge - the rental procedure is very simple, as long as the ID card or identification document can be used - he is not afraid that you will abduct the sightseeing bicycle under your name, who has enough to feed and ask for this pile of rotten iron? How much is it worth now? In addition, they have considered the expansion and adaptation of the business - adding more electric bike rentals to meet the needs of tourists who travel farther and without physical effort.
Today's society is changing rapidly, the pace of replacement is accelerating, and the "decay" and "decline" of sightseeing bicycles on the roundabout road also shows this, and now, riding on the roundabout road is the shared bicycle, which rides on the long roundabout road - or on the exclusive "bike path", or on the boardwalk along the seaside, or in the winding path of the small seaside park, it can be described as free and at ease. Because of its casualness and freedom, some places are not allowed to "spread wilderness" at will, such as communities, scenic spots, and public activity places, will put a sign of "shared bicycles, no entry" at the entrance and exit, and unceremoniously "shut them out" - of course, sometimes it is necessary to let the shared bicycle remember for a long time, and know how to abide by the rules and regulations in casualness.
