On October 26, an old man arrived at our newspaper office. He came here by bicycle from the city of Weifang. Bicycling from Weifang to Jinan will take 15 hours, but for Hu who is almost 70 years old, the journey is not a big deal. In July of 2009, he departed from Xijing and bicycled to Kekexili alone. On the two wheels, he fully enjoyed the landscapes of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. "If my bicycle hadn't broken, I would have arrived in Lhasa on schedule."
