Greetings to all foreigners

  First and foremost... On behalf of Bikehome Shanghai, Shan Ye and I, the moderators of the English forum would like to extend a warm welcome to all foreigners from all over the world.

The initial intention of the English section is for locals to get a better grip of their English command but I also believe that it can serve its purpose as a communication tool between locals and foreigners. It too can be used as a means for foreigners to get to know China better, to gain local knowledge, ride and trail information. It will be especially useful to those who just arrived in China and are interested to know more about riding here but couldn’t get over the language barrier. Shan ye and I, the English moderators will be more than happy to assist those who seek information or just to say hi so don’t be shy to contact us via email or drop us a line here at the English forums.

Take care and ride on!

Hi seagullbi,

Most of the riders here who have traveled to Tibet are not fluent in English... If you could understand and communicate in Chinese, there is someone i know from this forum who can provide your friend with a lot of information. Let me know.

Thank you!!!!

I was browsing around the site and I noticed there seems to be more posts for road bikes than mountain biking.  (And a lot of them seem pretty serious stuff and I don&#39;t think I can handle anything too hardcore to begin with...) Do you guys usually meet up to ride on the weekends?  

I have been out of touch with bikes for quite some time, so I guess my question is if there are any good recommendations on purchasing a mountain bike? I will definitely go check out the Trek store this week.  Thanks guys!  I am very excited about finding this site.  Can&#39;t wait to hop on a bike and hop on a trail.  Mwhahaha

I second what Tai is saying. Youu guys are pretty hardcore averaging 35-45km/h, and I am intimated given that I just started to pick up road biking again.

Anyway, I have just brought over my road bike and is looking for something that is long distance but in a less harcore way. Where do I start?

Cheers!

I am interested in joining China bike trips (duration 5-30 days), and you are probably the only forum in China that provides an &#39;English&#39; section.

However, the posts I&#39;m interested in reading are mostly in the &#39;Activity&#39; section (and written in simplified Chinese, which I can understand only 60% of).

Anyway, I really appreciate your efforts.

not besides Chinese           

American-born-Chinese, Malaysian-born-Chinese, Singaporean-born-chinese and etc are all foreigners as well. We&#39;re ethnically chinese but cannot be considered as a local born chinese.
