Jul 31, 2010, Handlebars fixed

China is an amazing country. Even after many years coming here it keeps surprising me. In the case of my broken handlebars.... in Yangshuo a bike repair man on the street had a new one for me. Thus I can continue my journey to Bangkok.

The broken handlebars

Jul 28, 2010, I won't give it THAT easy up

Breaking the handlebars is one thing, losing/stolen wallet another, but giving up without struggle is no deal. SO tomorrow I hear if I can fix the handlebars. If fixed I will continue cycling to Bangkok. Where's the fun without solving problems, besides, they can only get less after this.

Jul 27, 2010, Should I give it up

I'm 5 days on and it's not going well, in fact so far it's a list of problems that I had not anticipated. From small to worse Day 1. HK some troubles with the brakes, nothing troublesome Day 2, visa then boat to Gaoming, not Zhaoqing, 75 kmn extra cycling Day 2 end... pouring rain and the bank of china doesn't take my debit AND creditcard, after about an hour it all works. Day 3. No problems... phew Day 4. Making it up for day 3, flat tire and my new back wheel tire is broken at the tim side... no way to fix Day 5 is prime time. The handlebards break off. Gladly I was just at the start and not in full speed. The day ends comfortably with my wallet being stolen.

It's really my journey
