A man fondly relives a childhood memory. One day, while living in a hutong in Beijing, he returns home to find that his dad has purchased a shiny, new bike for work. He begs his father to ride it. When his father finally agrees, he races around the neighborhood to show off the bike. Before long, the boy gets careless. He rips his pants, lets his friends pile on like acrobats in the circus, and finally wrecks. Sheepishly, he returns the bike to his dad who stays up all night fixing it. The experience teaches him the value of the bike and instills a deep respect for his father.

This is the true story of two twenty-year-old Australians who travelled for fourteen months on recumbent bicycles from Russia, across Siberia and Mongolia, to Beijing. It is as much a story about perseverance, passion and belief as it is about the people and remarkable landscapes of Siberia and Mongolia. Tim Cope and Chris Hatherly are fearless adventurers, willing and able to open themselves up to everything from the voice of the steppe to the Russian villagers and the nomads of the Gobi desert. From this, they draw an often funny, moving and inspirational tale of living out a dream.

The Sky Is My Ceiling: Biking China's Border is Yu Juanjuan's personal account of her bike journey around China's border from 1987 to 1989 and in the process changed Chinese women's history. It took her two years to travel over 40,000 kilometers, (25,000 miles) to complete this trip, the distance being equivalent to the circumference of the earth. Starting from Beijing with four team members, three dropped out early, leaving her with only one-team member. For the majority of the 22 month trip she faced most of the diverse challenges ? the demanding terrain, the reaction from natives of cities and villages she visited, the wildly fluctuating weather, the need for funding, and those arising from the fact that she was a young woman ? alone. Since then, nobody has been able to duplicate her feat, man or woman. The strength of this remarkable woman's story? a product of the intersection of Communist and modern China ? result in a compelling richly illustrated book documenting the enormity of her success. Richly illustrated with over 150 images.

Download Finding Compassion in China: A Bicycle Journey into the Countryside Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
Discovering a largely forbidden country, Cindie Cohagan cycled across China's most arduous landscapes including daring ascents over some of the highest Himalayan passes in the world. Her journey is not only a stunning physical adventure, but also a mental and spiritual quest that pushes her towards and eventual conversion to Buddhism. Cindie's honest portrayal of the strangers she meets in this foreign land touch the heart as much as her lonely struggle to connect with her increasingly distant husband and travel-mate. Finding Compassion in China speaks of fragile yet beautiful encounters with a country and its people: from angry authorities, to enthusiastic prostitutes to simple families who offer shelter when needed. It is an honest tale talking about the profound intricacies of the universal human heart.
