I will be in Ping Hu, Guangdong (about an hour north of Shenzhen) for 10 weeks starting in May. I will actually be staying in Shenzhen but know they have banned motorcycles there.

I'm interested in doing an Ironbutt ride 1610 kilometers in 24 hours and was hoping I could find some like minded person who is familiar with the area. Basically one must average about 68 kph including stops.

What are the requirements for getting a motorcycle license?

What would I need to do to obtain a bike? Would I be able to rent? Would I be able to purchase and then resell? What about insurance?

It seems traffic laws are mostly ignored in Ping Hu. Is this normal in this region?
