A new riding buddy

Around China there is a lot of bicycle riding. Most of the time they ride along next to the cars and other traffic, which can be a little scary. A lot of people, even though their bike is not a two seater, have two people sitting on the bike. One is pedaling and the other person sits on it sideways while the other person does all the work. So last night Lindsey and I were heading back to the apartment from the store when I heard a scraping noise coming from my bike. This isn't uncommon so I got off it quickly to see what was wrong. The kickstand had fallen down so I hurried and kicked it back up and got back on the bike. There was a women probably in her thirties standing right next to where I had stopped and she was laughing. This isn't an uncommon event either. Then she started talking to me in Chinese which I politely told her that I couldn't understand and started pedaling my bike. The next thing I know I feel her hands on my hips and she is running trying to jump on the bike!!! All I felt was panic!!! I started to pedal as fast as I could trying to shake her off! She was laughing the whole time, I think she just wanted to jump on the back for a little joyride but I was scared out of my mind. Crazy, insane woman. I pedaled as hard as I could the whole way home...
