Yes, travel in China is exhorbitant and restrictive. That's just the way it is. The best way to keep costs down is to link up with others and share guides etc., but consider carefully whether the cost of riding across China, just to get to Russia, is ultimately worth it.

Easy! Just buy a bike in China and leave your own bike outside. i.e. Ship your bike to Russia (or Korea) fly to China and buy a bike and ride from one end to the other, and then fly from China to Russia (or Korea) and collect your bike. I did exactly this and had a great time as well as saving HEAPS of money.
