Re: the "Fantastic 4" will brave an October Holiday Ride!
the videos are finished and while preparing them I have had time to think about my own question: " how far you can ride a Chang Jiang "?
I believe they have done a fine job on this trip. Sometimes I forget that these bikes are "oldtimer", re ensembled with parts from Europe and China. The only "problems" are sitting on the bikes, because of not so very advanced mechanic skills.
Thomas is always doing a good repair job, but when it comes to the electric part we need help.
so, enjoy our trip from Beijing to Hohhot and back again!

Great videos Sabine. Nice to see that you had a chance to drive the other CJ, good job. :thumbsup:
I wish the weather in BJ was like Guangdong, it would be great to have more of your ride reports all winter long. :mwink:
Thanks for sharing and all the hard work!
Cheers!

Nice videos again, great sights.
some day I'll come up there and join you for a ride - on a CJ then - loaded with parts and tools...
Viele Grüsse,

Sabine,
Soon you'll have enough footage and videos to operate your own TV station!!! You ever though of setting up a perpetual webcasting of your ride reports? That way, anyone could check in at anytime and see a random bit of China. :thumbsup:

I use my Vimeo Channel as such a kind of platform: http://vimeo.com/channels/36881
some month ago I asked my own website provider if there is a possibility to post videos there. I was not satisfied with his answer and it would have been expencive.
so, if you like, check out the Vimeo Channel: riding Sidecars and Motorbikes in China
with greetings from Beijing!

Great trip Sabine, thank you for the videos again! The god of repairs can be hard to appease at times. Those were some beautiful blue skies out there, the kind that we forget exist when living on the east coast...

Re: the "Fantastic 4" will brave an October Holiday Ride!
the report of our October-Holiday-Ride would not be finished without the following Video.
because of the bike-breakdown, we missed going to Chongli. at the last day of the holiday we asked Nigel to join in and went by car to this amazing landscape.
(next year 2011 Chinabiker and we will organise a biker meeting up there!)
