Mid-autumn Festival - wow, can't believe it's already mid-autumn when the awesomeness of Beijing mountains has just started to show itself! The green, yellow and red color scheme is for sure the eye candy you have never dreamed of! To avoid the holiday traffic, we'll ride on SUNDAY (the 2nd day of the three-day weekend) this week!
We start the ride at a Cafe near Jiuduhe.
A group will ride a nice loop up the Sihai climb, then descend on a stretch of rough roads (which may or may not have been paved by the time we ride) then turning left into the Ming Tombs.
B group will go west for a smaller loop that packs in plenty of punch in an up-and-down profile.
C group will do a smaller but nicer loop. Good amount of climbing also to spice up the 50km route.
