01-18-2010, 04:12 AMOha, yes 500 RMB a Day/Bike is a generous offer. Is more about the Fun then the Money. We drive from Guilin to Kunming, since some Riders already join in want to spend more time in this Area

01-19-2010, 02:54 AMHi Sabine,
of corse, Ladys always welcome, especially when they have a chinese driving License. In the Moment we fixed a date from 13.02 - 21.02. In the Moment more people are interested in then i have Bikes, but let me give it 2 more weeks then who signed in fixed rides. For the flexible ones we could do a Kunming - Kunming Loop end of March to Vietnamese Border.

01-20-2010, 07:31 AMIts all highway from Kunming to Huize - after Songming totaly empty. That part is to be recommended for the ones how want to see whats in their Porsches and Lambos, instead of poosing around in the congested Kunming! The Passat can run on cruise control with 160. So new, not even speed control units their yet
Then some nice '2nd Class Highway' very wide, smooth curves, beautiful mountain view, around 200km. Then its brand new Expressway again, the section around Yibin is in bad condition, but empty. And the final leg on the Chongqing-Chengdu Expressway.
Stop for fuel, tollgate and cupnoodles - I really dont miss the traffic around Shanghai, countryside roads are more nice and expressways in western China tend to be excellent and empty
Back it was 9h fully loaded...
I dont have the speed tickets from Sichuan Section yet...anyhow, seems they hardly enforce them between provinces

Yestarday we road to HangZhou via some great roads(amazing), so today we are off early to Huang Shan. Ride photos will start to come in when we are in front of a real computer... posting by mobile phone at the moment!

okay, boys and girls after 300+ km through mountain passes and roads less traveled we moved west from HangZhou to an area just within the the JiangXi province, at a truckers resturant in a 15rmb a night double room... So tomorrow on to more to NanChung.
Weather today comfy but grey and overcast so not too many photos, maybe tomorrow will be more photogenic.
More tomorrow!
