bicycles



The Sichuan-Tibet highway is not an easy road, even for cars and trucks. It has numerour switchbacks and high mountain passes. We had altitude sickness on exertion. But it is a popular highway for bicyclists leaving Chengdu for Lhasa in Tibet, a journey of 28 days. They camp by the roadside or in little homestay with the villagers.
