Just two days after China’s number three bike sharing company went bankrupt, a photographer in the south-eastern city of Xiamen captured a bicycle graveyard where thousands have been laid to rest. The pile clearly contains thousands of bikes from each of the top three companies, Mobike, Ofo and the now-defunct Bluegogo.

لا يتمحوّر المقال فقط حول المفهوم المباشر لركوب الدّراجة الهوائيّة، اذ يمكن أن يكون هذا الأمر بلا أهمية عند بعض النساء وبإمكانه أن يكون مهمًا، كما وأنه بالعموم لا توفّر شوارع بلادنا إمكانيّات سهلة لركوب الدّراجات الهوائيّة، كما وأنها ليست ثقافة عامّة تشكّل بديلًا جيدًا للطبيعة عن السّيارات، إلّا أنه في حال نظرنا إلى شوارع بلادنا عمومًا، نادر جدًا أن نرى امرأة تقود دراجة هوائيّة، أو يميل الاحتمال إلى الصّفر، وبالتالي، فإن حقيقة منع نساء من ركوب الدراجة "خوفًا" على غشاء بكارتهن، بإمكاني تطبيقه على تفاصيل عديدة في واقع اجتماعيّ فيه قمع للنساء، وبدلًا من السخريّة من الواقع السّعوديّ، وانجازات النساء هناك بما يتعلّق بقانون قيادة السيارة، فلنتوقف قليلًا عند أشكال القمع الاجتماعيّة الممارسة ضد المرأة في كل مكان
