Garry McGivern Travelsonabike2 is cycle touring in China on Friday, 16th-November-2012. Shouyang to Shijiazhuang. 97 miles. My presidential suite last night only cost £36. A bit more than I’ve been paying, but still a bargain!
Bit sceptical about cycling today because of the snow last night, but once I was out of the city and on the main road it was fine and by the end of the day I don’t think it had snowed here at all.
The roads are so busy with lorries, carrying coal I think, everywhere is covered in black dust, including me!
Please Donate
Don’t forget the main reason behind my ride. I want to raise as much money for cancer research charities as possible. After my wife, Josie, died of breast cancer in 2007, aged only 42. Even the smallest donation helps. You can donate to Cancer Research UK or the Australian National Breast Cancer Foundation. Click on either one to donate. Every little bit helps to rid the World of this cruel disease.
Follow me on social media: Facebook, X, Instagram, YouTube and Pinterest. I’m also on Flickr, where my photos are released first at the end of each country I’ve just cycled through.
You can also follow my progress and see where I stop each night by visiting the Where’s Garry web page; there, you’ll find a map of the route I’ve taken so far.
