China - during the rainy season

[Franki]

Monastery with the backdrop of the most beautiful snowy mountain in Sichuan

Nomad summer gathering on hill top

Listening to young people on the hills singing love songs to each other beats Karaoke anyday

My daughter is a city girl but she enjoyed this trip as much as I did.

Great report! As soon as I get Thailand, Burma, and Laos explored I am off to China.

Benelli 600 is a 600cc in line four street bike with an Italian look and Chinese made quality. Great conversation piece but I would not like to take one on a long trip in China. In fact, a friend of mine rode one to Chiangmai a few months back. So some of you guys may have seen it already.

Franki,
Very brave father and daughter adventure!
Well-use of your old riding pants, it seem to be fitting her perfectly.
I hate mud and never learn how to ride on it and China seem to be full of mud
everywhere you go.

Hi Luke,

I hate mud too but if this the the road to heaven, I'll take it. 3
