Cycling to Sheshan

By Jian Shuo Wang on 2003-06-14 23:20 · Cycling

After cycling to Chongming (186km) and Pudong Airport (30km), Wendy and I cycled to Sheshan together today.

Wendy bought a new bicycle so we have two now. Hers is very cool with good color and 5 speeds.

After four hours - God. How can it be possible for us to use as long as four hours to arrive in Sheshan? I made the mistake to take the route of G318 since I didn’t bring a map with us. This may cost us additional 16 km - almost double the distance. When we returned, we only used 2 hours.

There is a nice lake before the Sheshan. It has a beautiful name too - Yue Hu or the Lake Moon.

See the church on the top of the mountain?

P.S. Bus #92 broke down

I saw bus No. 92 broken down and all passengers got off and push the bus to the side of the road at the Cao Bao Road, when I returned. It was really funny.

I know you haven't talked about the Sars situation, but I was wondering that I am coming in 2 weeks, do you think it would be okay

Thanks

It seems that you are becoming a bike traveller now! I like it too, and it could be more enjoyable to ride a bike than by bus because one can have more choice to stop a while to see the beautiful landscape.

Hi,

Do you happen to have a detailed map from Shanghai to Sheshan?

I just heard that it is possible to go there by bike through some plantation fields, in this way avoiding the roads, is it really possible?
