Good thinking. You'll be a lot more confident with a couple hundred solo km under your belt before taking on a pillion. I'm well over 10k km and have allowed a pillion only once -- a comely lass in Guiyang who, truth be told, accompanied me to Guiyang station to fetch my bike after its long ride from Shanghai, and who helped me push it to the nearest petrol station!

From the Beijing forecast, it looks like it's going to be a spectacular weekend for riding. Simatai anyone? Please indulge us with pictures of your first rides!!
