Born in Soviet Union, I have always harbored an unstoppable craving for the East from my childhood. My academic journey in Mandarin and Chinese history took me through several universities, culminating in a 30-year residence in Beijing. My wife, originally from Szechuan Province, and I raised our son, who eventually moved to the US. In China, my professions varied from being a driver to a mountain guide in Tibet, yet I consistently indulged in my favorite pastimes: martial arts, traveling, and mountaineering.The advent of the pandemic followed by the war in Ukraine dramatically shifted my family's life course. The prospect of continuing our lives in China lost its appeal, and returning to Russia was even less desirable. Consequently, fate steered us towards Istanbul, Turkey. Now, it's time to ponder over and share the unique experiences I've gathered in China with anyone interested.Read more about this authorRead less about this author

A true rider holds it as an honor to conquer any terrain on their "iron horse," choosing to dismount only when absolutely necessary, even amidst the gorges and snowy passes of Northern China. What philosophy drives such a rider? This book reveals the dangers encountered on China's roads, the methods to extricate oneself from challenging situations, and the peculiar and mysterious incidents observed.

It also sheds light on the nature of the Chinese people, their trustworthiness, and the authentic experience of life in the Chinese hinterlands. Moreover, this book is not merely a travelogue; it offers comprehensive, firsthand instructions for bicycle tours in China, providing valuable guidance for your future journeys in this land.

Wishing you the best of luck!The author, proficient in Mandarin, moved to China in his youth and spent 30 years in Beijing, where he practiced martial arts, engaged in traveling, and pursued mountaineering. .
