Another rare species becomes one closer to extinction as our man gets $3 richer!
A wolf pays the price of his Yak worrying
A Mongolian cowboy called Biro
Christ pats a unicorn in the national park
While I enjoy the more mundane pursuits
Our Brave team of "Braves et Bravedems" prepare to take on the Gobi
Leaving U.B. by bike!
The unfinished road to the Gobi
Slow progress was made as we went off-road
Christ trys on a Mongolian cadet outfit
With a lack of parking space; some shoppers in the Gobi are forced to park their camels on the double yellows!
We followed the train track all the way to the Chinese border
One of the Gobi locals gives our bikes a lot of disrespect
The long walk to the next settlement
If you value your life never tresspass on a Mongolian building site
Admiring the view from the hill top in Saynshand
Remnants of communism
A very pleasant day was spent kite flying in the Gobi
The other side of the border
Christ relaxes into the long asphelt stretch
Taking a break by the roadside
Our first delightful taste of Chinese quisine
It got very windy
We had to cycle through the odd sandstorm
The chinese aren't daft, here is an example of there wisdom
The cafe we would visit during my time off ill
The venue for my illness
Christ reads Tolstoy on his bed waiting for me to recover
We sampled the joys of Chinese motorbike riding
Our dirty little friend the chimney sweep
Christ cruises through a Chinese cut out
Along the road we met this very friendly couple who are attempting to walk accross every province in china in order to promote the China 2008 olympics
Christ enjoys the attentions of many chinese waitresses
The first sign for Beijing!
The rugged countryside near Beijing
Riberation anyone?
We near the Great wall at dusk
Cycling through the Great Gall of China!
Hanging out on the Great Wall of China
I dress up as the original Chinese comrade!
Camping it up inside The Forbidden City
I chill out in a cauldron
Christ gets big headed about our achievement
I join in the Dawn parade in Tianamen square
Christ rides the Deer Shaped Cyprus
The local karate kids are going to kick my ass one of these days!
An original Ming vase and Cindy Yip
I thought they were just mincing but aparently it's called Tie Chi
The outskirts of the Forbidden City by night
Drinking with our Ozzy mate Sam
