The Nomadic Spirit Travelogue :: Biking the PRC

Now this was an odyssey. Six and a half months across six thousand kilometres of China by bicycle. Obstacles included 3,000 meter passes and the world's second-largest sand desert. An unparalleled look at one of the world's great enigmatic cultures.

KEY: many Nomadic Spirit Travelogue entries contain media files.
