Eryuan

Just when we thought the hardest challenges were behind us, we were given one of our hardest days riding. After a gentle start to the day passing small
towns we started our Challenge of 11 km grinding up and over a long steep winding mountain road covered in terraced paddy fields resembling giant staircases.
Our burning quads were rewarded with a good rest and an inspiring panorama at the top.

There was an exhilarating down hill on the other side as we enter the mouth of the valley that leads to Dali!

We ended the day in Er Yuan where we had the chance to soothe our leg
muscles in its famous hot springs.
