The BUTT under the lead of our General was set lose on the roads north of Beijing. A fierce training schedule over six days, beautiful weather and good roads set the framework for the holidays. We set out to improve endurance, work on our jersey-line tan and to get ready for the next few months.

“This guy is crazy! When he enters the limits of a city on his roadbike, he accelerates as if he had a death wish instead of slowing down and looking out for pedestrians.”

A friend of mine likes to point this out to others when we talk about our training rides outside of Beijing. Truth is, I do enjoy the thrill of swerving through narrow spaces and narrowly avoiding crashes by being super-aware of everything around me while pumping with all my legs can give to get from A to B in rush-hour choked Beijing.

Recently I found a website made by a guy who likes to tape his adventures with a helmet mounted camera. After downloading some of his videos, I couldn’t help myself but watched them over and over again.

This kind of camera is very high on top of my wishlist. I’d love to see how scary my rides look from a couch perspective.

I just browsed to the official website of the Beidaihe Triathlon that will start on Saturday, September 2nd at the beach resort east of Beijing. While I was looking for contact details to get us signed up, I stumbled upon this bit of news:

In which we are already mentioned as the attraction of the race, although we haven’t even confirmed our participation yet.
