Serk Cycling Beijing
October holiday - we celebrate the autumn. It’s usually the best week of riding in Beijing mountains! Preparing for the Gran Fondo
We are planning to ride into the mountains on the first day (Oct 1st) from Serk; we'll stay overnight at the Serk Shan service course. (A car will drop off all your stuff.)
On the second day, (Oct 2nd) we do a full day of riding in the mountains, stay at the mountain house.
On the third day (Oct 4th), we sleep in a little bit and say our goodbyes to the mountains either via a short route of 90km or a longer route of 140km back to the city to round out three days of great riding. (A car will drop off all your stuff at Serk.)
The timetable is as follows ;
1st:
7:00 Meet at Serk, ride towards mountains of Huairou
11:00 Arrive at Serk Shan
12:00 Serk Shan meal and stress-free afternoon with a good internet connection
18:00 Order in food from homestays
2nd
07.00 Serk Breakfast
09.00 Start riding - 100km and 175km options
16.00 Finish ride at Serk Shan, shower and change
17.00 Dinner and drinks
The courses we have planned are absolutely spectacular and also designed to challenge each group to ride longer! You’ve got most of the day so might as well make the most of it. Especially that we'll be riding part of the same route for the L'etap race later in October.
