Weather wise, initially it was hazy but then cleared up to be a beautiful day of sunshine, mountains, streams and open and smoothly pathed roads


A short break to let the mountain bikers catch up

stopping at a local market to get filled up on water and candybars before riding another lonely 30K to the finish


May 10th was the first group ride of 2oo8 - What a way to start too with 125km of riding with the MOB (Mountain bikers Of Beijing). This was to be 100% on pathed road so I had the opportunity to ride the Corratec road bike that I put together.
