Tougher than the Tour de France Riders...

Regular readers of my young blog might recall my March 26th post which included a link to and quote from an article on contemporary Chinese social problems translated by one of the most insightful U.S.-based China writers, Xujun Eberlein. In recent weeks, Eberlein's blog, which I have read regularly for at least the last year, has included almost daily entries from her husband's travelogue of a solo, unsupported bicycle trip from Boston to New Mexico. Though it has been the Tour de France cyclists that have captured the attention of most fellow cyclists around the world these last few weeks, Bob Eberlein has been my hero! If you enjoy cycling, or just good personal adventure narrative, you ought to check out Bob's trip entries, which are posted on Xujun's blog beginning with the first entry here.
