location

Miyun

Last weeks ride was a real blast. Everyone was smiling ear to ear after the first real ride in the mountains. This week is our first ride in Miyun which is a Serk favourite. The A ride do a nice long loop around the entire Miyun Lake while B and C group will travel along the Western side. C and B group will see the Great Wall up close - which is perfect at this time of the year before it is overgrown with greenery.

If you still haven't signed up for a pass yet all the detail is here. If you sign up for a 15 ride pass by the end of Feb you'll receive a free personalised emergency contact band.

About Serk Ride

Serk Air Cast (VPN) required

For the wind geeks here is the wind forecast for the next 9 days. (only works with VPN on). This was developed especially for predicting days which were suitable to ride by friend Dustin Grzesik in 2013. Infact it was one of the first wind prediction tools (if not the first) in Beijing. We use it religiously to predict the quality of the air in the city and out in the mountains. If the wind is blowing from the North and over 10kph expect an AQI of under 50 in the city. With less windspeed its often also excellent quality air in the mountains.

You can use this data to decide when to ride and understand Beijing's wind and pollution patterns.
