Hello,
I am planning a bike trip for the summer (mostly in July) to go from Golmud to Lhasa along the Qinghai-Tibet highway (the world’s highest road!). I have a detailed itinerary and price quotes, but most importantly i am looking for travel companions. The biking portion of the trip would last18-23 days. I plan to rent a bicycle that comes fully equipped with panniers from bikechina.com in chengdu and then taking a train to golmud. I am a young adult, speak both english (native) and fluent chinese, yearn for an adventure in Tibet, and I love to bike! This is a once in a lifetime opportunity!
If you are interested, please contact me. I have detailed itineraries, prices, bike info, tour guide info, everything you need to know!
