China Questions?
Hi - I've been following the China treads and from what I'm reading it sounds like traveling through China is possible but not without it's bureaucratic problems. I would like to travel in China next summer for a two month period so if someone could help me out with a couple of questions (or point me in the right direction) I'd appreciate it.
1. Is it possible to rent a bike in China
2. Is it possible to purchase a bike in China? what kind?
3 If I went the purchase root I'd have to register/insure it quite quickly given the relative short time I have for the trip. Is this possible?
4. Is it possible to ship one's own bike to China.
5. What sort of registration/insurance/licensing is required?
6. Can one travel in and out of Mongolia from China
7. Can you travel freely without a guide?
8. and just out of curiosity how long would a London - Hong Kong trip take?
Any comments and/or suggestions on the above would be much appreciated. P.S. I did a trip in Kenya in Jan. and got a lot of valuable info from this board
Happy riding
Christopher
