Hey all,

Just to share a nice discovery I made yesterday (perfect weather in Shanghai to ride BTW...).

There's a new asphalt road around the Dianshan Lake, on the east coast of the lake, very close to Zhujiajiao. It's not finished yet (no markings on the road, and the road itself is not finished after a few kms) but it's completely on the edge of the lake, the if-you-miss-a-corner-you'd-better-know-how-to-swim kind.

There's nobody on this portion yet, it has nice corners, it'll be a nice portion to ride on the week-ends with the gf when it will be finished. Yesterday was very windy, especially at the border of the lake, so had to ride leaned to the side even in the straights...

On the map above, I put a X where it starts.

It's not the Nirvana, nothing compared to Moganshan roads, but it's nice and much closer to Shanghai anyway.

Cheers,

Fred
