Bike wedding long 9000km
The post will be very long. Therefore, patience comrades and again patience.
It will be a lot of photons and text.
In mid-September, one of the local sites of my city spoke of the newlyweds, who went to extraordinary honeymoon.
Now I saw the continuation of this journey, they have already passed 8tys km. So let's start from the beginning and will continue ...
They went from Naberezhnye Chelny to Vietnam (city of Nha Trang), passing on the way Kazakhstan, and then China. On a similar honeymoon Arthur and Nina dreamed 2 years. All the while, the couple saved money, studied maps, to obtain visas, buying equipment. After completing the training and playing 7 August wedding, the couple decided to finally realize the cherished dream into reality.
As for the wedding, she took the boys, too, is very unusual - the bride and groom and the guests went to the registrar on the two-wheeled "horses."
A couple of years ago, Arthur and Nina has already traveled to Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia and other countries. During this time they have got good friends who are happy to meet velomolodozhenov in Nha Trang.
And so they set off ...
During the trip, young people are faced with various difficulties. Around 5-6 pm guys start looking for a place to sleep, kindle a fire and collect the tent. The big problem, according to travelers, have become conventional mouse, which are constantly fed their stocks. From small rodents have suffered a tent, backpacks and travelers - many patches.
However, such difficulties only hardened the character of young people. All unpleasant moments they remember only with a smile and a positive attitude and are willing to roll up any mountain.
- We are interested in sports, extreme sports. I would like to diversify the life that was what then tell the grandchildren - says Nina. - And I think, in these families, like ours, are born children, who are also to strive for something.
Now speedometers bikes show 850 kilometers under his belt - a tenth of the way, but the impressions of the trip is a whole mass. Newlyweds drove Tatarstan, Orenburg, saw the southern end of the Ural Mountains, admire the beautiful spectacle.
For newlyweds Buzuluk joined their friend Nikita. Cyclists he saddled just two months ago, however, he admits, the journey is given to him is not very easy.
Vietnam guys plan to arrive only by January. However, it is said by the couple, the road by walking, but in their case - riding ...
And so ... It took 4 months. Then, few people believed in the success of the cycling trip from Tatarskan - Kazakhstan - China - Vietnam. However, 4 months later, the couple still continue their journey, they now are in China. The following are excerpts from reports of Arthur and Nina Sahabutdinovyh about his trip (punctuation, spelling and style of the author is completely stored)

"At 4500 km of bike computer ... for a long time could not settle, as in China, foreigners can not always sleep - only in special hotels. And these 2 hotels in the whole city. Another learned that in China you can not sleep in a tent, at least, foreigners face a heavy fine, but we have nowhere to go, we carefully masked.
The Chinese people are friendly, but that's hard for them to explain. Nobody knows English. If we stop somewhere, it begins literally a circus. We are surrounded, shot on telephones and everyone is trying to us to say something in Chinese, to our misfortune we do not know ... We were all scared that eating plastic. It is not, they eat normally. But that's a lot of additives are used. Everything is very sharp and strange taste due to the spices. "

"On the bike computer 5300. We are now in the city of Hami! In the past, the city in Korla updated equipment. Bought inflatable mats, in addition to foams, waterproof bags and thermoses. Now, enjoy the comfort.
On the second day after Korla came under snow and rain. The temperature of the plus, the minus. Everything freezes on the go. Bike covered with ice. Froze all the switches, and tape into a block of ice. The pedals are not cool, always had to stop and clean. The feet get wet through ... oh dear. In China, a very good track and the majority are paid. Cyclists ride on them is prohibited, but other roads they have, have to break. "
halt
very nice ...

"On the bike computer 6200. We are now in the new province of Gansu, which is inhabited by a purely Chinese, not Uighurs.
About everyday concerns: to understand, finally, why we are not allowed in many hotels. Only 3 stars and better put foreigners. The Chinese have chosen for us, where we are sleeping and that we will be better. It's a bit annoying us, because as prices bite. We and one star is enough, the most important thing to warm =). We think that this is due to the demonstration of the purity, which is lacking in Chinese hotels, and in the streets.
Once learned that the Chinese - AntiJapanisty (this is so they call themselves). On Japanese cars top Chinese pasted icons, and upon entering the restaurant hang Japanese crossed flags. Like the Japanese entry is prohibited. Here's dislike. "

"On the bike computer 7500. We moved to Sichuan Province and is now in its capital city of Chengdu. We arrived in the summer! No longer have to rush headlong from the cold, and you can enjoy the views vokrug.Tut trees grow tangerines and Pamela. A plant around those homes only see pot =)
Ceased to move on the highway, now prefer the road close to the local life. Here you can catch the local flavor, to see how the proceeds of their life. In small towns in the morning they come together and are heated by the fire in the evening often play dominoes ... New Year's decided to meet in Kunminovskih mountains in a tent at 2000, and perhaps 3 million meters above sea level. Romance, in a word! »

We stopped in the Russian house WUA (Academy of free journeys), who created Anton Krotov - known traveler. We live here for free, all around the Russian. The atmosphere is interesting and unusual. All the walls are inscribed in the rules that violate the strictly impossible. Everywhere hang maps of the world, and most importantly everything is steeped in the spirit of travel.

Passing by the city saw a Chinese wedding and noticed a few practices. When the motorcade drove up to the place of celebration, they begin to ignite firecrackers tape lying 50 meter corridor. Then comes the bride and groom sit on his shoulders, not that in Russia at the hands, and at once honest and neck. As we stood and looked at what is happening, then the witness came and gave us 2 red envelope. They had exactly 12 yuan each. At the wedding, we decided to give money to the newlyweds, and not vice versa. Of course, we were delighted with this custom ...
Not reaching 30 km to Kunminga on highway along which we go shall be prohibited, we were again stopped by the police. We thought that everything will be as usual. They will not be able to explain to us and we, too, "ting bu dong" (do not understand). But it was not there, we were with the bikes loaded into the truck and drove, we thought, to the police station to write fine. And taken to Kunming. So, the last 30 km we rolled with two Chinese policemen. Then another took pictures with them ... and thanked the finish point is also a country of Vietnam and the city of Nha Trang. And this additional countries Laos, Thailand and Cambodia. "
