China Bicycle Tour
Have you ever dreamed of touring China by bicycle?
What if you could fly to Beijing where an English speaking guide would meet you, fit you with a brand new folding bike and lead you on an amazing cycling journey? What if the trip included bicycling amongst a sea of cyclists on great bike lanes to places such as the Forbidden City, Tiananmen Square and the Great Wall? What if the trip included an overnight rail journey via sleeper train to Xi'an where you would unfold your bicycle and pedal to see the Terracotta Warriors in all their glory? What if you could then fly to Shanghai or Hong Kong to see and cycle through these amazing mega cities and their rural surroundings? What if you had the option to take the folding bike home with you at the end of the journey?
Based on an exchange of emails with Jason Williams at Grasshopper Adventures, all the above and more can be arranged through his company without breaking the bank.I first heard of Jason and Grasshopper Adventures through the blog of a Bike Friday owner that toured southeast Asia recently by bicycle. The blogger (Yvonne Armstrong of Australia) bragged about how helpful Jason was so I emailed him about bicycle touring in Thailand and touring via folding bikes. Jason's replies have been prompt and encouraging so I'm going to see what he can come up with on a bike tour of China (I've wanted to visit there since I was a child).
Once I have more info such as the cost, duration, etc. of a bike tour of China, I'll post these here.
