At the time in Chita in extreme conditions was held cycling marathon, eight members of the team «Gobike» plied their bikes snowy expanses Cherskogo ridge 70 kilometers from the city. A training session was planned medium difficulty. Well, you know, a PVD (a hike of the day off). He inhaled, however, until Monday. Now you see the card that this party took "PVD" (now called) Andrey Shaman and see all this beauty. Beauty Without the quotes!
It all started well ... and actually went all wonderful.
On Friday, September 26 after working guys in a car drove a little farther the village of Burgen, there were transferred to the bikes and about eight in the evening moved up the r.Chitinke. We planned to spend the night at the first ford, but he did not get to in time. The road is not very much, but the weather was wonderful, and yet the autumn.

The next day, September 25, they went to the cordon at the mouth Kumahty. Surprised rangers said that over the pass to go further, to put it mildly, a mistake, but had nothing against.

The first mistake will soon find out. Sanya Aces struck the wheel. This is the territory of the reserve and all roads zashipovany. Come on more carefully, the way the benefit was seen. But he gradually narrowed and turned into an equestrian trail, unfit for the bike. Then gobaykery dismounted and led their iron horses in the matter. The weather did not prevent the PST, but somehow beginning to frown. The trail went up the hill through the thicket, Gorelniki, bump and other irregularities. Therefore, the speed of movement was much lower than expected. Permanent director of LDPE (and all other trips «Gobike» - Sergey Yakunin planned that day - Saturday - to cross the ridge and down into the valley Nikishihi to Sunday afternoon had to go back to Chita. But the caravan of cyclists failed to evening pass and half of the intended path.
Drizzle. Then charge for an adult ... The guys have put a tent in the woods somewhere in the south-western slope of xp. Cherskogo and hardly made a fire. Everything was saturated with moisture. A steady rain fell boring and autumn. Among the rolling in the sky Water Drops Andryukha Shaman noticed the strange trajectory of the fall, such as that characteristic of snowflakes. While he was watching an interesting phenomenon in his open backpack nalilos half liter of rain and wet sleeping through. But it was very dark, late and useless something to dry. All exhausted and hid in three tents until the morning.

Folded tent, as told to Andrew, began to weigh like a sack of potatoes. Laid them bikes, guys went on up to the pass. Wet snow sticks to needles, but in the morning it looked nice, and you can move, pushing the bike. Then it became quite beautiful. A wheel of spitsovannyh become a disc. Snow closes up the wheel so tightly that it was hard to pick out a stick. But, more importantly, that the pick made no sense, because after ten meters snowball rebuilt in the old place. Obviously, the weather conditions were very favorable to sculpt snowmen. Strange, but I do not see Andrei these cards. Probably all were tired. Regardless of the clothes soaked up every cowards, and the sky continued to fall silent snowy wool. Moreover, not falling snowflakes, and the whole clumps. It should be noted that some (two) participants LDPE wore only light shoes. (And who knew!)

In short, for dinner Bike and expedition dobrela almost to the pass and the first suspicion that the PST will be delayed. Survey of all participants, who will certainly need to be in town on Monday. At Alexander Busoedova operation (it is the surgeon), Alexander Tuzova meeting (it official), Andrey Shaman final maturity of the loan.
Sergei Yakunin suggested folded bikes together and go on without them, or just will not have time. All with ill-disguised glee agreed.
When Burlacha bike in the mud, or snow tussock pedals at times painful hit in the legs. Therefore, they are tied up in advance, and now laughed: "What think the person who found the pass eight bicycles and on each there is the left pedal?". Aces did not take off the pedal now worried: "What if my bike will rest?" - "But who will be rested !? There is not a soul does not happen, and what you can get here !? ". Indeed, finding a technique to hide God knows where on a wooded wide pass, do not know which side of the trail without GPS coordinates - is unrealistic. Himself would find ...
Andrew posted on the sly extra boilers, old jeans, remnabor and some little things. Still backpack - "veloshtany" remained heaviest and most importantly, inconvenient to carry.
On the descent from the pass to the valley. Nikishihi became clear how much the right decision adopted by throwing bicycles. From this high mounds of wet with puddles on the knee, disguised snow gobaykery chosen would probably have three more days. Snow on the marshy pigweed continued to fell continuously.
At ten o'clock in the evening went down to the river, we decided to drink tea, and then walk on to the cordon to Nikishihe. Before him, on the estimates it was still fifteen kilometers and four hours running. Contacted by satellite phone with the driver Bones, checked the maps in the navigator and identified the place where he has to drive the top of p. Nikishihe to take command.
It turned out, as calculated: four hours in two nights came to cordon wet and tired very much. It turned out that on the legs held for 20 hours. Huntsman awoke, asked to put on the night in the bath. Huntsman was a great man: "Yes that there .... Come live in the house! ". Navarro tea, gave two loaves of bread.
"Tomorrow you're going? - I asked the huntsman. - How Nikishihe down? What is the road which the car !? There's no road there. " - "And how do you get to the cordon?" - "So we Shishkino of the pass. Also there are practically no roads, but experienced at UAZ arrives. "
That is, it turned out, to go out to the people, it was necessary to bring down the ridge again, only in a different place. And where is the driver Kostya !?
Kostya, as it turned out stuck on the road, pulled the car in the morning and began its way further up the river without a connection and not realizing that gobaykery not go to meet him.
On Monday morning, September 27 team went on the road, which they kindly showed huntsman and strode up the hill on a snowy clearing, which picturesquely hung bent trees.
On top of the pass he was able to call on a mobile Chita. Bone sent after another UAZ and third car went through the village Shishkino meet travelers.

On the descent from the pass about 16 hours velopeshehody heard the sound, and then, just under the laws of the adventure genre with a happy end, out of nowhere, lit the sun melted the snow on the road, there are two good young man on a white four-wheel horse, and in the clearing as the out of the ground appeared a magical stump with vodka and snack ...
