I tried to flag a taxi in downtown Shanghai for 45 minutes and finally gave into the broken English speaking motorcycle taxi who had been circling the block every five minutes.

Riding bitch through Hangpu to Pudong with a laptop in one arm while lane splitting with aggressive (and otherwise bad drivers) all around was a rather exciting experience.

Even with a skilled pilot, the adrenaline rush was similar to my first time tandem skydiving.

following lines from neal-stephenson's cryptonomicon come to mind:

      "like Disneyland with the safety locks taken off"

Your driver must be a real level 4 driver.
