Watch a Massive Fire Engulf a Motorcycle Parking Lot in China’s Chongqing

On a sad winter's morning, I walked out to hop on my Yamaha Aerox only to find half a link from the chain that I used to keep it safe—much good that did. It's a heartbreaking experience to have your motorcycle taken from you. So, when I saw a video of a temporary motorcycle parking lot up in flames, I felt secondhand pain for my two-wheeled brethren.

As you'll see from the video below, it was no small fire. An entire parking lot in Chongqing, southwest China, went up in flames last Wednesday. The fire was spilling out of every inch of the ground floor, while smoke engulfed the building above, leaving bystanders to watch helplessly. Just looking at the size of the enormity of the fire, it's hard to imagine that any motorcycles survived.
