Holy shit...this video deserves a repost for anyone who didn't see it the first time.
Tom rides up to two tunnels under serious construction, chooses one and rides thru it without hesitation.....AS IT'S BEING TUNNELED!

I've just found out I've got another ten days off at the end of this month. I'm thinking of riding up through Jiangxi province and then west to Chongqing, probably solo. Are there any MCM riders along the way?
Re: Shenzhen - Chongching - Yangshuo - Shenzhen
You sure you want to do those central provinces with your time off? The roads are supposed be appalling out there. Wouldn't be better off doing fujian and zhejiang?

Yeah I'm sure you're right, it's not about the roads though. I've already 'done' Yunnan, Guangxi, Sichuan, Guizhou, Hunan, Guangdong, Fujian and Chongqing. The ultimate goal being to do all provinces in the middle kingdom, and Jiangxi needs to be done. I have asked yingang if I can leave my bike there and then use Chongqing as my base to explore the north. At the moment I seem to be getting a lot of time off work so hope to do monthly trips, maybe 2 more years to get the full set - Tibet being the only really tricky one.
I'm keeping my fingers crossed and if yingang say yes i'll be on the road again!
Re: Shenzhen - Chongching - Yangshuo - Shenzhen
That sounds like a good plan too, let me know when it's time to cross shaanxi off the map; i'll have fresh supplies of duct tape and zip ties in case you need to do any major repairs
