We love cycling in China and think you will too! China is

full of surprises and you will be amazed with what you will

find here.

Why bicycle in China? With the world's largest

population and largest cycling population, cycling in China is a treat to those of us who grew up strapped into the seat of a car. We consider the bicycle the perfect means of transporta tion since it allows the body to keep pace with the mind. We’ll help you plan a wonderful bicycle tour in China as follows.

Private and Small tours are all we do.

We offer private tours of small groups. This allows tourists to stop any time at interesting villages, or taking photos without having to be concerned about "keeping up with the group." This is because bicycle touring can be done at your own pace and style, which will greatly increase your experience in China.

Beginners Welcome

For the uninitiated, we offer private introductory cycling tours that will teach you what you need to know to successfully tour in China, or anywhere else you may be interested in going. We will teach you the proper cycling techniques; adjust your bike so it best fits you. Also we will teach you the basics of survival Chinese so that you can get necessary help from the locals on your own.

Choose what you like- No bike? No problem!

Getting a bike in China is easy. Mountain bikes are readily available at reasonable costs. We

can advise on equipment or provide it for you. Want to experience China from a bicycle, but hate to pedaling (踏) all day? Perhaps an electric bike would be right for you. Electric bikes are readily available and can travel up to 80 kilometers on a single charge. Just let us know your needs.

Both sides want peace, but neither feels it has any power to stop the conflict. In part, this is because neither is willing to admit any responsibility for starting it. From the parents’ point of view, the only cause of their fight is their adolescents’ complete unreasonableness. And of course, the teens see it in exactly the same way, except oppositely. Both feel trapped.

In this article. I’ll describe three no-win situations that commonly arise between teens and parents and then suggest some ways out of the trap. The first no-win situation is quarrels over unimportant things. Examples include the color of the teen’s hair, the cleanliness of the bedroom, the preferred style of clothing, the child’s failure to eat a good br eakfast before school, or his tendency to sleep until noon on the weekends. Second, blaming. The goal of a blaming battle is to make the other admit that his bad attitude is the reason why everything goes wrong. Third, needing to be right, It doesn’t matte r what the topic is –politics.,the laws of physics, or the proper way to break an egg –the point of these arguments is to prove that you are right and the other person is wrong, for both wish to be considered an authority—someone who actually knows something — and therefore to command respect.
