#1 Day trip to Moganshan
11-25-2011, 01:59 AM
Hey all,
Yes I know, another Moganshan RR, yeah... As beaten as it may be, it's still the nicest place to ride a bike near Shanghai IMHO, and especially a nice YBR 250...
So yesterday morning, waking up at 6AM, beautiful sky, decided to go to Moganshan and back to Shanghai in the same day as I had to work today.
Bike still in break-in, 90km/h maximum, 3h30 to go there. I don't mind, the weather was beautiful and I was going to the mountains.
Once in Moganshan, I discovered the Mother of all roads (discovery for me, not for others, I know...), a perfect stretch of asphalt, zig-zagging in the mountains forever. I spent 1h30 on this road, having fun, stopping to take pics and in all this time I encountered only 1 car. Perfect.
This road is the S304, west of Moganshan city, and it is officially the Shit.
Pics to prove it :

500km in the day, arrived back in Shanghai at 6PM, it was totally worth it.
The bike was flawless, the break-in is finished now (over 1,600km on it).
I will update this report with more details when I have more time.
Cheers,
