我的2025年精选骑行路线 | 2025 Standout Rides
Some of my memorable rides I did for the year. Xinjiang was my main focus, and I hardly scratched its surface! 今年我完成了几段难忘骑行。新疆是我的主要目标，可我连它的皮毛都还没摸透！ Stans Borders 斯坦边境 98.98 km 1,563mhttps://www.tanqi.cc/stans/https://www.strava.com/activities/15130716818/ Amazingly dramatic ride over one of the highest border crossings between two countries @5660m Kyrgyzstan into Tajikistan over the #pamir highway. A mega mountain crossing, river crossing, finishing…

WBR NWX S3 旅行笔记 Trip notes
NWX（西北新疆）似乎是沿边境和G219公路骑行新疆的最佳路线。道路大多适合骑行，沿途风景壮丽，且有对外国人友好的住宿点。 关于喀纳斯与河木地区的注意事项如下：九月（国庆假期前）是观赏秋色的理想时节，五月或六月或许也不错？冬季则因严寒不宜前往。无论何时出行都需备好冬季雨具，因极端天气可能突发。上海至伊宁或阿尔泰均有直飞航班（5小时航程）。 NWX (North West Xingjiang) seems to offer the best point to point riding in Xinjiang along the border and G219. Roads are mostly suitable for cycling, scenery is epic and foreigner friendly places to stay along the way. A few points for the Kanas and Hemu Area see below. September before October holiday…

A very nice weeks long loop around the Ili Yining area. I would say this area is highly rated and a good place to ride a bike! Day 1 Yining to Gonglu.S: 2.5, R: 4, H: 3.5Large, busy but easy to ride flat roads. Search out smaller roads or go through the hills in the…

WBR S2a SW Xingjiang
South of the Tianshan Range! Quite a tough section. Think if you really want to cycle this. There is better cycling north, traffic on the Duku G217 is crazy and scary and roads turn into motorways! Kashgar 喀什 Easy flight to Kashgar. Nice new hotel near the old town. Some nice walks around the old…

Quick Stopovers
You most likely have to stop on the way to Kashgar so might as well check out a few places enroute. Urumqi is a practical jumping point and is good for a day visit. we stayed in People’s Park, walked around the Bazaar and visited the museum. Rented a car and drove 2h to Turpan.…

青蛙和生蚝环线 Frogs Oysters Loop
沿着安静的道路和自行车道，在英格兰南部和法国北部进行一次轻松的小旅行。我认为这是新手骑手或初次来到这个地区的自行车旅行者的完美路线。轻装上阵，行李不多，沿途在朋友家和酒店住宿，沿着国家自行车道骑行，同时大吃大喝，这真是一次非常愉快的放松体验。我花了 7 天的时间骑行了 1260 公里，但我建议你可以花10天内完成，或者花两周时间游览巴黎。骑自行车进行这种旅行确实会带来更好的体验。 https://ridewithgps.com/collections/2806314 I wanted to visit some old Shanghai friends who had moved back and get some KM’s on the legs. I also wanted to try out the English and French bike lanes to see how they work and how beginner-friendly they are. I therefore put together a little loop from…
