    YuShu is basically in the middle of nowhere Qinghai, China. Stopped there for a short while to find out the cam chain on my AX1 was ripping pieces of engine casing into the head of my engine. FUN!

    if you look at a map of china, yushu is about as far from anything as you can get without leaving earth altogether. 1000km or more in any direction to the next town. thus the logistics of rescue are difficult. but china learned a lot about mobilization in the 2008 beichuan quake.

    I don't know how true this is, they are saying death toll could be bigger than officially reported.
