Ride in Tibet

**Shanghaifingers** · 05-23-2011, 12:30 AM

If anyone who reads this has ever wanted to explore China on a motorbike, but wished you had a biker buddy to would go with and for someone else to do all the hard work then Yangtsepete is the man to choose. You wont regret joining in on a China Rally. Its a motorcycle tour company owned and operated by a true motorcyclist....
I have ridden with Peter for years and he knows his stuff....

This is very interesting. I'm actually going to be doing the Lhasa - Nepal run on a bicycle in August, stay tuned for that.

In terms of motorcycles and Changjiangs, what are the issues for altitude? That is to say, do the bikes need modifications to run on lower oxygen climate?

Great pics Wango! Thanks. Looking forward to more!

This is a really interesting adventure trip. Did you guys bump into the Edelweiss group on 2-wheeled BMWs & Yamahas?

Nice video promo! I hope someone who did that trip will post a ride report. Will you be producing a full-length video about the ride also?

Cheers,
