第一千七百九十—章巫行...

陈哲玮

一直以来，我不断的出现在路上，用脚步丈量这梦想的距离！从最近的到最远的。从最东的到最西的。梦想的脚步一次比一次远！西藏，一直是我的梦想，为之我付出了很多，也牺牲了很多！想象这那藏地雪山圣湖，那豪情羞怯情怀，还蛮激动的，也许是此次的目的地是世界之颠的原因吧！挑战，一次比一次有挑战性！这次，我真的是只身一人在路上了！当背着那沉垫垫的登山包走向车站，走进人群，我又激动又紧张－－要借宿在青旅，要拼车在路上，要独自享受这一路美景！这一次，要考验我身体能不能行，要考验我够不够机智勇敢，要考验我意志力是否够坚定！这一次，我一定不能让自己失望！因为这是我的梦想…西藏，在路上！8.28北京-西宁8.29西宁市区-塔尔寺：藏传佛教的六大宗主寺之一，黄教的创始人宗喀巴的诞生地，它以藏汉艺术相结合的建筑风格、琳琅满目的法器、千恣百态的佛像和浩瀚的文献藏书，酥油花、壁画、堆锈组合的“艺术三绝”享誉国内外，青海省旅游王牌景点8.30青海湖-拉萨列车上今天差点没来成青海湖，因为一人，又没拼上车，就在我都放弃青海湖的时候，早晨醒来准备去吃早餐时，经过前台看见了一哥们儿说是要租车去青海湖，我那一个高兴啊，回宿舍赶紧收拾背包，坐那等候。经过“天下河水皆向东，唯有此溪向西流”的倒淌河，我们抵达中国最大的内陆咸水湖---青海湖，浩渺的青海湖像一望无际的大海一般，只是天空不作美，一会刮风一会下雨的，还好我备的衣服多。。。湖畔大片整齐如画的农田麦浪翻滚，菜花泛金，芳香四溢；那碧波万顷，水天一色的青海湖，好似一泓玻璃琼浆在轻轻荡漾。过了季节的油菜地PS：第一次住青旅，上个片片留作纪念哈，青海行YHA，店主服务态度很好，宿舍都是自己套被套，也很干净，有种回归大学宿舍的感觉。(*^__^*) 嘻嘻……8.31西宁-拉萨的列车上传说中的康巴迪有氧列车，外表看似绿皮车，内部可不一般啊，有图有真相还有我24小时吃的一顿餐，好精贵的途中经过可可西里途中经过雪地途中经过雪山途中经过河流途中经过草原-牦牛途中经过车站-措那湖：站在湖边途中观赏的天空、云彩和阳光PS：这晚住在了拉萨有名的青旅-东措，说实话，这个四人间，还没青海行的好呢，估计名气太大了，人太多了，也就一般了，不过蛮喜欢它墙上的涂鸦的，都是一些人才啊看这个布达拉宫，很需要手艺的9.1拉萨市内-大昭寺一大早，我们就去排布宫的预约票了，早起的鸟儿有虫吃，这话真不假。排完门票去广场拍布宫，这景色，太美了听说这个角度能够拍出最好的布宫哟，只可惜我的相机不是发烧级的药王山广场解放纪念碑布达拉宫那一天，我闭目在经殿香雾中，蓦然听见你颂经中的真言；那一月，我摇动所有的经筒，不为超度，只为触摸你的指尖；那一年，磕长头匍匐在山路，不为觐见，只为贴着你的温暖；那一世，转山转水转佛塔，不为修来世，只为途中与你相见。夜晚的布达拉宫广场，少了天安门广场的喧嚣，多了一份天堂的静谧，伴随着青藏高原的曲子，音乐喷泉为这广场增添了一抹欢动的色彩倒影在水中的布达拉宫，像一位羞涩的女子，静谧的矗立在那PS：分享下我们吃过的藏餐：酥油茶是真喝不惯哎，芒康木耳这个不错，哈哈，就是米饭硬了些9.2布达拉宫巍巍高原，屹屹雪城，宏伟的宫殿横空出世，记载着千年的文明的传承，布达拉宫的高度永远让人仰望。布达拉宫被称为“世界屋脊明珠”，它是拉萨乃至青藏高原的志，这座世界上海拔最高最雄伟的宫殿里，收藏着极为丰富的文物和工艺品，同时也珍存着独一无二的雪域文化遗产。在拉萨和藏地的任何角落，人们虔诚叩拜合拢的手掌永远指向她。世界上海拔最高、最雄伟的宫殿也无限衍伸着藏文化的灿烂，是真正属于世界的遗产，是可以触摸，可以深入，未经粉饰，但真正具有藏族建筑艺术杰出代表的宫堡式建筑群。有时这建筑更像一个神秘的符号，吸引无数人义无反顾地投奔西藏而来。。。PS：分享下我们吃的藏餐厅：多好的环境啊，真心贵啊9.3拉萨3650-曲水-江孜4040-日喀则3950：途径冈巴拉山口4900、羊卓雍错4441、卡若拉冰川、宗山古堡、白居寺经过世界上最高的淡水湖、有天上圣湖之美誉的羊卓雍湖。藏语为“碧玉湖”，是西藏三大圣湖之一羊卓雍错，湖水如羊脂般清澈，湖水甘甜，可以饮用。湛蓝的湖水与远方的雪山连为一体，加上两岸各色的山脉、极具特色的藏民族村落、遍地的牛羊，一路走来，心旷神怡。触手可及的卡若拉冰川一个小水库----马拉水库，都可以蓝成这样PS：日喀则限速40公里/小时，老让我们在路边等，看风景晚上入住的丹增旅社，还是一家蛮特色的旅社对面就是古旧的小布达拉宫9.4日喀则3950-拉孜-定日4300-珠峰大本营5200：途径嘉措拉山5248、乌拉山口5210翻越5248米的嘉措拉山这犹如肠子般的道路，真不是一般师傅能开的了的，要技术滴，还要车子滴。。。后驱车前往巍峨壮丽，气势磅礴，蜿蜒千里的喜马拉雅山脉，向地球之颠挺进 PS借宿在珠峰大本营1号营地，这高的海拔，天真的很冷啊夜里黑漆吗乌的一片，我们竟然还有个哥们儿去拍夜珠峰去了，太敬业了，我不得不上几张片片9.5珠峰大本营5200-日喀则3950：日照金山、绒布寺5100、绒布冰川、绒布河、扎什伦布寺不得不说，我们真的是一群幸运的孩子，在西藏这么多天没下雨，而且该看到的风景一览无余，连珠峰都这么给力，一大早露出了金色的笑脸，我拿什么感谢你啊，珠峰！绒布河是由珠峰北坡的三大冰川——东绒布冰川、中绒布冰川、西绒布冰川部分泉水汇集而成的冰水河流。当今世界上保存和发育完好的绒布冰川（平均宽1.4公里,平均厚120米,最厚处在300米以上,有高达数十米的冰陡崖和步步陷阱的明暗冰裂隙,是一个险象环生的冰崩雪崩区）。世界上海拔最高的寺庙--西藏红教寺庙绒布寺5100。当群峰还在晕睡，珠峰已披上女神华服般洵丽夺目的朝霞，伴着珠穆朗玛峰升起的第一缕霞光穿行在巍峨壮丽、气势磅礴、蜿蜒千里的喜马拉雅山脉，在荒芜和寂静中翻越海拔5200米的加乌拉山。远方除了为首的珠穆朗玛峰（海拔8848）以外，周围横亘着尚有拉布吉康峰（海拔7367）、卓奥友峰（海拔8201）、洛子峰（海拔8516）、马卡鲁（海拔8463）等白雪皑皑的世界顶级峰群，眺望雄壮肃穆的希夏邦马峰（海拔8012），一个唯一全境都在中国境内的海拔八千米以上世界顶级山峰。。巅峰之旅结束返回日喀则途中，途观片片田地观班禅大师灵魂安息地、黄教六大寺之一的扎什伦布寺：历经近五个多世纪风雨的扎什伦布寺，依然以它恢宏的气势，绚丽的色彩、神圣而庄严的殿宇耸立于日喀则市西面的尼玛山上9.6日喀则3950-拉萨3650，沿途欣赏后藏大漠景色途经发源于喜玛拉雅山北坡的雅鲁藏布江流域，千百年来，江水奔腾不息，流过大半个西藏高原，一路上劈山跨涧，坡势愈发陡峻，景色更为壮观.PS今天，我们一起相处了4天的8人这张最齐（广东刘Sir,陕西红雷哥哥，陕西赵大叔，浙江黄磊弟弟，安徽邓超，ME，安徽朱小姐，新疆萧萧）在明天就要分道扬镳了，回家的、继续前行的即将各奔东西，晚上嗨皮了下下9.7拉萨-纳木错4718-拉萨：沿途观赏藏北大草原、青藏公路、圣火采集点，翻越那根拉山、游览西藏三大圣湖之一的纳木措，远观“光明之神”念青唐古拉山。PS：八角街闲逛中川藏8天之旅开始：著名的G318，中国最美的风景线川藏线，沿途有翻不完的山，淌不完的水，以及沼泽、冻土区、地震区、碎石塌方区、原始森林和大冰川。一路上景观千变万化：有高山峡谷，有一望无际的草原，有雪山草甸，还有沿途随见的经幡、玛尼石、藏寺和多姿多彩的民俗民风，充满了刺激，充满了魅力，旅途虽然艰辛，但一路风景壮丽，是旅游探险爱好者和摄影师的极乐所在。这一次，我选择的是中国最美的风景线----川藏南线！ 9.8拉萨—68km—墨竹工卡—206km—工布江达—127km—八一—19km—林芝—70km—鲁朗主要景点：追龙藏布大峡谷，原始森林，雪山冰川，易贡藏布，追龙藏布与易贡藏布交汇后、就是藏区仅次于雅鲁藏布的第二条大河“帕隆藏布”，鲁朗林海观景台，色季拉山（4650m），尼洋河与雅鲁藏布汇合处，巨柏树。早起从圣城拉萨出发，途经工布江达县，沿拉萨河谷行驶，翻越第一座雪山——米拉山到达墨竹工卡。再沿途出发欣赏尼洋河风光，传说尼洋河是“神女的眼泪”汇聚而成的，水色清幽明澈，绿波见底。然后前往尼洋河，它是一条非常美丽的河,它是雅鲁藏布江的一条支流。藏语称河为“曲”,称湖为“错”。尼洋河,藏人叫它尼洋曲。而“拉康”是宫殿的意思。([]

云南德钦的梅里雪山和雨崩相信许多喜爱旅游的朋友都耳熟能详。而我，算上这次的雨崩6天之行因该是今年第3次带驴友来到梅里雪山，过去的2010年214国道迎来的是一场人工的灾难，从去年4月后开始破土动工修建二级公路，但至今未果，直到这次我们雨崩之行结束返回香格里拉道路状况还是一片狼藉……在痛苦的颠簸后，最让人期盼的就是让这条令人神往滇藏路能够早日迎来崭新的面目。在全封闭施工的这些日子里，还是有许多不畏艰险游人或组织者绞尽脑汁设法来到这里，梅里雪山的神秘诱惑确实是让人无法抵挡，绕路、换车、打时间差、寻觅小路、连夜狂赶……一系列能够想到的办法都在“只要能到梅里”的欲望驱使下产生。到现在如果你要问“梅里雪山、雨崩能去吗？”回答一定是：“可以去！”“幸苦吗？”“确实很幸苦”……现在总算好了，路是通了，只是还有些难走，反正滇藏线总是在缝缝补补又一年中度过的……先不说这些了，既然能去，就算是我这样到过这里许多次的人也同样向往，并且依旧如此激动！带队这次的雨崩之行也是非常另人满意的，原因是特殊的天气让我们全团人都感受了不一样的雨崩！清晨的日照金山分外令人震惊！雨崩神瀑浮云中夹杂的大雪更是为我们此次朝圣之旅增添了洁白和纯净。梅里雪山是藏民心中的神山，当看到他时敬畏油然而生，卡瓦格博早在800年前就被藏民奉为神山，而且是藏区八大神山中唯一的男性神山，每年秋冬季节，尤其是这个时候，许多来自西藏、四川、青海等滴的藏民到此朝山转经，其中雨崩神瀑是比去之地，因为转经的人们都相信，能够被“雨崩神瀑淋湿，就能求得福气！接下来再慢慢介绍，全篇大概会有400多幅全都是梅里雪山和雨崩的图片，相信你一定能够看个大致的过瘾。其中整个行程中的香格里拉、虎跳峡等其他部分的介绍我都省略了，因为那些不是本帖的重点，而且现在整个丽江的自助游线路都是大同小异！照片也是漫天飞舞，参差不齐。我就不做太多的描述了，慢慢看，看我们一趟雨崩之行到底能够感受到些什么，值不值得！就请跟我的镜头扫过，一有时间我会慢慢更新的，不过按照惯例我还是将和往常发新贴一样先做个记录：行程时间：6日里程：丽江-香格里拉180公里香格里拉-飞来寺 200公里足有飞来寺-西当温泉50公里左右西当温泉-南宗垭口 12公里（徒步）南宗垭口-上雨崩7公里（徒步）雨崩-冰湖 12公里（徒步）雨崩-神瀑7公里（徒步）人数：10人用车：福特方式：丽江云行户外俱乐部活动徒步里程：80公里左右（3天完成）气温跨度：-3°——15° 相机：50D 18-270具体攻略可见 www.aaa5.com 提示：备一个小背包，在徙步时，小包内只要装上一套换洗内衣、裤，可以背相机、饮料、食物即可。进雨崩切记不用带太多的东西，轻松上阵。厚一点的袜子二到三双，最好是户外袜，通气性强，穿久了也不会有异味。雨崩里面的条件是非常有限的，但手机和相机充电是完全没有问的，信号是时有时无，进山之前最好是先和家里打好电话以免担心，驴友有必要准备一些常备药。其他的就无所谓了，外话：在梅里雪山、雨崩等藏区很神圣的地方最好是不要乱说话，跨经幡，要尊重当地风俗习惯，我见过很多这类不注意的人和事情，乱说话可能会给自己带来不好的运气……云南最美的村寨-雨崩还是由于修路的原因我们不得不第一天就直接从丽江到飞来寺住下，当天晚上没有风，从来没有见过这么多星星的夜晚，美极了，一道道的银河好像就在头顶不远处，梅里雪山只在我们对面留下了一道轮廓，由于光线太暗，根本没办法对焦，花了半个多小时就曝了下图这么仅有的一张12点钟的梅里雪山。第二天清晨，在住所窗口架上三脚架拍的梅里雪山全景，只是广角不够28的广角确实很尴尬。这个是日照金山开始的前兆，天气真是太好了，不过这段时间能够看到日照金山的几率是非常高的！我边拍边叫醒同行的团友，这样的风景是绝对不允许错过的。梅里雪山是藏民心中的神山，十三峰一字排开，让人领会到自然的伟大，敬畏油然而生。日照金山的那一刻，白马山头观景处一片寂静，放佛所有的人都深怕打扰了神山焕发光彩。神女峰是我看到过这么多雪山中最秀美的一座山峰，每次到梅里总是先把镜头对准她，与卡瓦格博截然不同的是她的气质一眼就能看出似女人的高贵，旁边的五冠峰依偎在右侧传说是卡瓦格博与神女峰的儿子。卡瓦格博6740米，云南第一高峰，威仪俊朗锐利如剑锋直指天空，尊严从不轻易让人朝觐。雨崩神瀑其实就是从五冠峰高耸的悬崖顶坠下，因水源为神山的雪水，所以特别神圣.日出那一刻，满目皆是金山。快马下到飞来寺新修的观景台，这里确实是最佳的观景位置，只是收费有点昂贵，60元的费用真是让人望而生畏……好在我来过多次混了个脸熟，领队证也没有出示，直接进去狂怕。日照金山是很短暂的，夏天出来的时间会早一些大概7点15左右，而冬天金山是8点后才慢慢出来，但冬天和春天的天空会更加清澈。看到过很多拍金山的照片颜色过于鲜艳，看起来还真如金子般绚丽，其实真正当时的颜色是很不好把握的，相机不同拍出来的效果和颜色是完全不一样的，这个把握相信谁都做不好，当时看到的场景颜色和照片差别太大。远瞰这片村寨好像就在卡瓦格博主峰脚下，其实这里离主峰还有很远，真正主峰脚下的村寨是明永村。不能只顾关注雪山了，其实佛塔和雪山的配合才显得分出彩。在佛塔前拍梅里雪山会更具有浓厚的宗教色彩。回复 mxhsz889 的帖子呵呵，谢谢，正在发，会陆续更新的！瓦格博在眼前显得特别高大，每个季节来看到他都不一样，非常神奇！因为当天就要进雨崩村，天已经很亮，大概已经9点多了，我还在继续不断的拍会很晚才能进到雨崩村里，飞来寺下去到西当温泉还有50公里的山路要开车进去，到西当温泉后就只能徒步进山了。集结了所有团友准备出发!回复歪歪_79 的帖子嗯，一定加油！不过平时工作忙，我一有空就会来发帖的！谢谢版主支持！！从飞来寺下去会有两条线路，一条是西当也就是去雨崩的必经之地，另外一条就是去明永冰川，明永冰川大概需要徒步2个多小时，冰川像一条凝固的河流从卡瓦格博主峰的山谷汹涌而下，冰面下就是雪水流水声震耳欲聋，明永冰川也是不非常不错的景点，只是我们这次的重点在雨崩，所以就不对这里做太多的图片介绍了。雪山周边的密林深处，经常会看到朝圣的藏民，他们世世代代与神山交往，虔诚地视神山如祖辈，所以卡瓦格博也叫做阿尼（爷爷的意思）卡瓦格博。到梅里雪山就怕广角不够用，28的广角总是差了一大截，没办法，换个方法把整个雪山群拿下.先谢谢以上给位朋友帮顶！！！！{5_135}在不同的平面看雪山会有截然不同的效果，这个地方是在前往西当村的路上的澜沧江大峡谷边拍到的。之后我还会贴上一些不同的角度给大家参考，因为很少有人去拍这样的角度，所以建议大家留意一下，不然大家的照片都一样也就没意思了。回复摩托摩托的帖子嗯，雨崩的就在后面，稍等。卡瓦格博和明永冰川。从飞来寺开车往下大概15分钟左右会到达一个挂满经幡的神台，这里看到的神女峰和在飞来寺观景台上完全就是两个模样。听过很多人说梅里十三峰他们怎么数都没有十三座？其实你换到这个角度就会明白为什么数不出有十三座了，因为有些山头是需要到特定的角度才能看到的。澜沧江梅里大峡谷，过了这个峡谷才能到达西当村，这里也只有唯一一座能够过峡谷的大桥，桥前面就是雨崩景区的门票口，所以到雨崩想逃票有点不大可能……呵呵。这个角度的卡瓦格博我相信很多人都没有看到过，这个是我们从西当温泉出发后爬到山的另一个侧面拍到的，而这个位置可以同时看到白马雪山群和梅里雪山群，但由于密林遮挡这里其实根本不是理想的拍摄位置，而且到这里很容易迷路，坡也非常难爬，还有比较危险，所以不推荐到这里来，我自己去年走过这边，但是今年还差点迷了路，好不容易在天黑之前找到了大路，不然真的头大了……如果你对自己有信心，体力超强的话可以考虑从南宗垭口再往南上坡20公里的样子估计能找到这里，不过，呵呵还是不推荐去，因为如果没有向导，在这里迷路到时候哭都没用了…… 从迷途中出来找到了一条大路，这条大路虽然可以到南宗垭口但还是走个没完没了的，但路上的景色确实让我感受不一般！([]

序言318国道从上海出发至西藏的樟木，全程5334公里。它是中国目前最长、最美丽壮观的景观大道！令无数人心驰神往。然而，当昼夜神思的人们当真起步欲行的时候，却又被无数的遐想所阻碍。‘我很想出发，但苦于没有时间，只能遗憾之至；我身体欠佳，无体能进行如此长途骑行；此行前进于西藏高原，高海拔将会引起高原反应，万万行不得；道途漫长，茫茫莫测，途中遭遇盗抢如何了得；我年龄偏大不适合这样的旅途；这是男人做的事，女人焉能干得；’所有这些阻碍因素的确存在，也确实正在阻碍着神思向往的人们的前进脚步。但是，其中想去，他的想法很简单。西藏高原是地球最高处，他虽不能遨游全球各地，但庆幸的是这高不胜寒处落在中国境内，景色壮观绝美。为人一生，尤其是作为中国人去之无须证，不赴可惜！时间这个问对他来说，只有赶紧去，不能再拖延了，因为他已稀里糊涂地奔出50大限了。倘若再不下定决心，岁月将耗损他仅储的体能，或许此生就再无前进的时刻了。赶紧去，立马走。无体能可以先锻炼一阵，让自己的体能反弹一下也是件好事嘛。至于会不会高反去了再说，能行则进，不能就退。若遇劫盗，临场处置。穷游无财人半百，生死由命无所惧。当然，想通无畏的人也是日益增多的。去皆有一个理由或是籍于一种口号。比方说：‘我的骑行是倡导一种绿色环保的理念。或是我的骑行是纪念建国多少周年。或是我的骑行是挑战自我战胜自然。或是我的骑行是宣传及弘扬奥运精神等等诸如此类。’其中也想弄个靓丽的出行口号，苦思冥想，未得其果。他实在搞不出复杂的想法，自己原本就是玩嘛，就是去一个没去过的陌生地方看山水嘛。由于选择在春季出发，他最终还是复归简化，就是春游嘛。只是这次的春游游的比较长远而已。其中最初的想法同这西藏高原一样壮观伟大，他想一步到位。既然已行致远，何不一饱游览。他打算从上海出发沿318国道一路西进至拉萨。再经浪卡子、白朗、日喀则至樟木318国道终点。然后回到拉孜沿219国道北上去新疆。再在新疆游览各地后从乌鲁木齐回沪，计划春秋二季完成于冬季前夕返回上海。呵呵，计划总是完美的，但具体执行起来也又是困难的。其中为此准备了半年的时间，他每天除下雨天外坚持骑车45公里以锻炼脚力，由此，他自信满满；他每天风雨无阻坚持爬楼梯一楼至六楼，上下来回一个小时，总计30多圈以增强心肺功能。由此，他自鸣得意；他每天清晨在公园步行道快走万步以强化徒步能力。由此，他沾沾自喜。其中对他的春游计划充满自信，对前途憧憬无比。他很想与人分享其内心的这份喜悦，他把此事告诉了他的老同学，由此一传众人知，但鼓励者不多，规劝者不少，对此其中理解。毕竟人至天命，颡皱鬓白，独自千里迢迢，高山涉水，前路未卜。甚至有人质疑其中同学一定受了什么刺激了。如果他没受刺激，那他为何一定要“行西”呢？呵呵！其中不以为然。他不知如何回答刺激一说，我只是想游览西藏的高原风景而已，骑车去是因为沿途风景很美，骑骑、看看、玩玩、摄影等都自由自在，如云游仙人般辛苦犹乐，何来受刺激而为？他这样暗想。网上有人把骑行或徒步去西藏的人称之为“中毒”者，何谓“中毒”呢？就是看了别人赴藏后写的游记以及拍的照片，被那巍峨壮观的山脉气势所震撼，被那广袤辽阔的高原草甸所折服，被那古朴原始的民风所感动，被那旖旎秀美的乡村风光所吸引。这种“中毒”的说法看来应该是有道理的。倘若要说刺激，其中以为刺激一说与中毒一讲倒有异曲同工之妙，如此说来，其中的确是受了刺激，而且刺激得不轻，足以至“行西”的地步了！（‘行西’同沪语，‘寻死’发音相同）哈哈哈！！！由于欲行新藏线，这是一条最艰难而又险阻的进藏线，高海拔、路况差、广阔的无人区、恶劣的天气等不利因素不得不使其中认真对待考虑周详。他很清楚自己不是专业的户外运动者，他从无长途骑行的经验，以前他也没有进行过骑车锻炼，就是近半年的骑车锻炼中，他最远也只骑到上海的近郊——朱家角，来回120公里。曾有朋友质疑他此次的旅行能否成功，建议他先试着在上海周边地区进行试骑。但其中一笑置之，他以为没有必要，如果说每天骑行百公里算短途，那么每天的短途累计起来不就是中途了吗？同样道理，累计的中途不就是长途了吗？这样看来，那长途骑行有何难哉！朋友闻言，诧异曰，你就是如此认为的呀！友人也一笑置之。不过其中也的确没有藐视过长途，尤其是新藏线的骑行，他关注此线的自然条件与不利因素。为此他添置了帐篷以及抗零下20度的睡袋，购置了望远镜、指南针等一系列野外生活的必需品以及修车工具和配件等。几乎想到什么就备置什么，总是不在乎多件东西。结果整整塞满两个驮包，一个背包，还有一只大大的购物包，外加一个摄像包，共大小五个包。重量就不言而语了！在准备的同时他几乎每天晚上潜心准备着路书，把所须经过的乡、镇、县名，路距都一一记录下来。把在网上能看到的相关游记都过目一遍，对照着地图看，重要的地方牢记于心。他虽然事无巨细地准备着，但对于装备却有着不同的想法。他觉得像骑行服、裤就完全没有必要，什么快干衣裤，这么穷讲究有意义吗？他甚至认为这无非是显示给别人看——‘我’是一个专业的骑行者，这很牛吗？其中认为无必要如此张扬高调。尤其是骑行帽，倘若真的有落石砸头或翻车扑地，这帽能护脑袋？他觉得带这个东西是中看不中用。呵呵！这种完全不专业的思想导致他身穿牛仔裤，头戴遮阳布帽就出发了。所以说，很多事物的认知只能从实践中去体会，这一点其中在途中是深有感触的。最大令其中头疼烦恼的事，其实是修理骑车，这是他的弱项。老实说他连基本的调试刹车，更换刹车片、线都不会。至于补胎和换胎他也只是在修车摊前看修理师傅干过，似乎还记得其操作流程，自己却从未实践过。所以，他由衷希望他的坐骑千万不要出大的问，这将直接影响他的骑程。但骑这么长的旅程，车不出故障是不可能的。他也管不了这么多了，带上配件，到时就赶鸭子上树吧！临修现悟，情急逼智商。从骑车中学会修车，这是其中此行的收获之一。其中，这个户外骑行的老菜鸟，虽深思熟虑，老谋深算，却又自以为是，胆大妄为。不就是在公路上骑自行车嘛，想那么多干嘛！不就是骑得远一点嘛，有什么可恐惧的。骑出去是玩，是浏览风光，思虑过多反而会影响心情和兴致。装车背包，推车出门。2012年4月15日的清晨，朝霞殷红，春风荡漾，其中毅然骑上他的白色坐骑离家出发了——真实开始了他的行西之旅。其中

D1、上海——（苏）平望（2012.4.15多云117.74公里）晨曦霞光春风暖，其中扛着骑车下了楼，女儿帮他提了个包也跟着下楼来。捆好行李，跨上骑车，他回头望了下女儿，“在家好好用功读书，别忘了给老爸发短信。”“嗯，爸爸再见，路上小心！”清晨的空气特别的清新，人不多。其中沿着内环高架下一路快行，沉重的负载偶尔也使得车身晃几下。但这并不影响他的骑速，他精神饱满地踩踏着自行车，车轮一圈一圈不停地转动着，码表在快速记录着路程。前方岔路红灯，其中减速停车。朋友，朋友。隔了少许，喂！朋友。在路口众人群中，他听到有人在招呼却没在意，以为与他无关。但呼声持续且声高不由回首观望。这时，见一身穿骑行衣、裤，头戴骑行头盔戴着墨镜的中年男子也跨着一辆红色骑车扬手招呼自己。“朋友，见你的样子是长途骑行吧？”“呵呵，是的。”“去哪？”“西藏。”“哇——！”人群闻之不由左右惊愕。骑自行车去西藏有没有搞错哟！诧异、摇头、嬉嘘、疑虑者不一。绿灯亮，车群各自散去。其中与那中年男子并排缓行。交谈中得知此人姓谷，长其中四岁，身肌发达匀称，一看便知是个专业体育人士。他看其中没带骑行头盔，指出这样骑长途是极其危险的。他告诉其中，头盔是保护头部的重要防护品，关键时刻或许能救一命，决不能小觑了头盔在骑行中的作用。他反复叮嘱其中要购置一顶，这钱不能省。当他知道其中以前没有进行过短途的骑行准备时，不由瞥了其中一眼。他虽嘴上未说，想必内心一定嘀咕，这岂不是在瞎胡闹吗！眼前这个50出头根本不懂或者说无知户外骑行的老菜鸟，就这样也想从上海骑到拉萨？他内心长叹一声，真是无知者无畏呀！或许出于礼貌、或许出于骑友间的鼓励、或许出于骑友间的关心。此时此刻，在他俩一起有限的短途中，谷先生尽量把他所知的骑行途中的经验，比方说途中要水、中途问路、上坡下坡要怎么骑、投宿饮食须知等一一告诫其中。甚至于为什么一定要穿骑行衣裤尤其是在城区道路上骑行。他说，因为一般户外骑行运动，变速骑车与一般自行车在速度上差异很大，着骑行衣裤可以方便清楚的提示车辆司机在行驶中比较准确地判断骑行者车速，这样有利于安全及驾驶。他把道理阐述得非常仔细清楚。其中则默默地听着，他内心非常感谢谷先生。大都市里人流熙熙，萍水偶遇之人能够如此热情坦诚，实属难得！但老实讲来，其中性情固执，他虽无言诺诺，但要说他完全信服谷先生的话倒也未必，盘亘在其内心对户外骑行的某些看法是坚固的。他总是以为这是专业者的专业语言和专业态度，虽无可厚非但也不必讲究。呵呵，这家伙表面认真，实质是不以为然的。所以说改变固有的东西是要有个过程，去实践才会改变一切。其中后来深有体会。人做事有两种品性的表现，一种是举重若轻，另一种则举轻若重。在户外长途骑行中，轻重的拿捏不能偏置一面，而前者有时是需要靠运气来庇佑的，一旦失去上帝的支持，就会付出惨痛的代价。后者则会使人逡巡不前。很快，他俩边聊边骑就到了华东师范大学校门口。谷先生因有事要去学校就告辞了，临走他俩互留了电话。沿内环高架路骑行，过延安路不久便至虹桥路了。然后，再沿着虹桥路向西走。不一会儿，其中来到一座立交桥下，过立交桥后大转弯沿延安高架路及G50沪渝高速，沿高速道旁进入沪青平公路。在这里，其中看到了318国道的路碑，表示15公里。而其中此时的码表里程数已经20多公里了。大转弯后立交桥下，其中不由想起了最初萌发骑车赴藏那会，那是去年九月上旬的一个星期天，一大早，他骑着自行车首次晨练，也如今日一样同路至此。他虽然知道318国道就是沪青平公路，但不知道在哪？这里他以前从未来过。当时，正值中午11点半左右，阳光灼热，行人稀少。他看见前方路边停着一辆小轿车，车旁站着一个四十岁左右的男子在抽烟，其中便上去问路。“请问师傅，沪青平公路在哪？是不是这条路？”那男子望了他一眼，“你要去哪？”这一问把其中给问住了。因为他原本也不知道自己要去哪里，只是想沿着沪青平公路即318国道随便骑行，骑到哪里是哪里，看时间差不多就往回骑的，沿途的乡镇他也不清楚，他一时窘在那里。突然，他记起好像听人说过此路可至朱家角镇，立马说道，阿——我要去朱家角。这一说不打紧！那男子听得把烟都呛了一口，他重新上下打量一下其中：这人一头黑白相间的寸头，年纪不轻。穿件白色圆领汗衫，下身着沙滩短裤，足穿登山鞋，骑着一辆陈旧的跑菜市场的自行车（此车400多元买的，的确用来买菜的车），此外就没有任何东西了。“你要去朱家角？”他再次问。“是啊。”“你知道朱家角离这有多远吗？你就这样去？”他突着眼珠大声道。“怎么了？不行吗？”“我告诉你吧，朱家角离这里有50公里。太阳这么大，你什么都没有，骑着这样的破车去，有没有搞错！”“呵呵呵！”其中被他突兀的语气不由逗笑起来。“你不要笑呀！我是开车的，你是骑车的，你不能和我比的，我们的档次（级别）不一样的。50公里对我来说，毛毛雨！对你来说要‘吃生活的’（吃苦头的），你是朱家角镇上的？”男子好奇又问。“不是。”“哦哟！！朋友帮帮忙嘞！那你去了还要回来的，骑这样的破车？简直是寻开心嘛！”男子瞪着疑惑的眼神看着其中。“哦，我是锻炼锻炼，练练脚力。”其中赶忙解释，他生怕别人误会他有病。“哦，老师傅，说归说，你要去，我告诉你。这条路是去机场的，你沿高架下走，看见前面路牌是沪青平公路一直下去就是了。”“好的，好的，谢谢！”其中点头致谢！调转车头朝前骑去，身后传来那男子的招呼声。“哎——老师傅，骑不动就回走，不要硬撑。”“知道了。谢谢！”其中回过头来挥了挥手。骑着、骑着，想起刚才的对话，其中不觉笑了起来。50公里怎么了！我还要骑5000公里呢。今天我一定要骑到朱家角镇。这50公里也搞不定，以后如何搞定5000公里。想到这里，其中振作精神，烈日炎炎下一鼓作气向前。那天，其中记着是下午三点到朱家角镇，随后即返，到家已经晚上七点半多了。骑得是大腿鼓胀小腿撕疼，屁眼痛得要开裂一般。他第一次尝到了户外骑行的滋味了。今天，当其中再一次来到这立交桥下，触景回想，那男子的言语神态依然还是清晰无忘，他不由停车朝那条路口望了一眼。路口依旧，昔人不复。唯有脚下乌黑平坦的柏油路挺直地伸向远方。50公里、500公里、5000公里、甚至更远。其中猛然一蹬踏板，疾驶而过。过徐泾、赵巷、青浦，中午12点多抵达朱家角镇。其中在镇口一家餐馆吃过午饭后稍作休息，店里的老板客气地给他灌满早已喝空了的三个水瓶，他又继续上路了。四月的下午，阳光明媚，春风吹在人的脸上暖洋洋的。公路两旁排排的树木早已穿出一片片的新嫩芽来，呈现出新鲜而又淡淡的草绿色，相间于翠绿色的老叶丛中。远远望去，树丛深浅不一，张显着沧桑与生机。饭吃饱，精神好，骑过淀山湖感觉特爽！没停。在东方绿洲处，其中碰到两个当地骑友，请他们帮忙照了张相留影。稍作交流便互致平安各自继续骑行。出上海市距离江苏吴江市的平望镇还有24公里。过芦墟、黎里，下午4点一刻到达平望镇。此镇位于苏、浙、皖、沪三省一市的中心，水陆交通发达。车水马龙，人流吵杂，是一个工、商、贸发达地区。其中看了下码表，已经行程117.74公里，便想在此投宿，想必竞争发达地区住宿消费不会很高。主意决定，其中环顾四周，朝一条商铺较多的路口拐了进去。不远处就有一家招待所，他把骑车靠在一边，进去问价。单人普房60元，房间在楼上。其中不由嫌贵问，我是骑车旅行的，能否便宜点？答，不行。自行车，房间里能放吗？回复，不能，车可以放在底层楼梯旁。其中转身出门。门里传出一句，喂——别找了，我这里是最低价了。这里不找了！其中回头也来一句干脆的回答。骑出该路口，过马路朝反方向而去。其中看见路边有一巷口，旁边竖立一广告牌，上书停车住宿。进去则一停车场，尽头处一排楼房。他推车过去，一个四十多岁女人迎了出来，住宿吗？哦！还是骑车的呀！问价得知，这里单人普间30元，洗澡厕所里可以洗。房间在底楼，车可以放在窗外的走廊上。其中看了一下房间，虽小但能放车便问，我把车放屋里可以吗？可以呀，没问的。掏钱付费，卸包住店。饭后洗完澡，他闭着眼睛舒服地伸直了两腿躺在床上，一天的骑行劳累渐渐地在消退，睡意渐渐地在加深。房间里灯没开，两块薄布片的窗帘也没有拉严实，中间留有一道缝隙。窗外走廊上有一只廊灯亮着，发着微光。微光透过缝隙悄悄窥视着床上的行者，他竟连被子也没盖。其中2012年8月6日 15：19 淀山湖东方绿舟投宿的旅社骑往平望途中看到一起重大车祸，好像是一辆运长木材车与运长石柱相撞，殃及一辆水泥卡车，司机死得很惨。 D2、（苏）平望——（皖）广德（2012.4.16多云146.55公里）其中一早5点多就醒了。起床整理好行李，洗漱毕他出门上街。街上的店铺大都没开门，行人寥寥。在十字路口，其中看见一卖早点的流动摊车在那。朝霞初升，霞光正照射在摊主的身上，也映红了他沧桑的脸，他伫立摊前环顾四周，一辆卡车从他身后驶过。其中站在马路对面，望着眼前的乡镇街景，他突然有一种摄影的冲动。但他没带相机，无奈作罢。他走过去，花4元钱买了两只粢饭团，边吃边往回走。推车出门，已经是7点了。就一会儿功夫，街上行人与车辆一下子多了起来，四面八方的人流仿佛突然从地道里钻出来一般。说话声、汽车喇叭声、买卖吆喝声以及各种吵杂的声音混合一起，充实了整个街道。平望镇新的一天又开始了。其中混迹于车流中，也开始了新一天的骑行。过江苏的梅堰镇、震泽镇，然后进入浙江的南浔区，午后11点他来到了湖州市。本想在此午餐的，因中途又将另一个饭团垫饥，不觉饿，看看时间尚早，穿城而过。沿高架下向右拐，骑着骑着，其中突然发现他把318给骑丢了。因为他看到的路碑不是G318，而是G104往南京方向去的。不好！方向错了。不过记得刚才路牌的指示318是这个方向呀！又没有第二条路。他搞糊涂了！问仨路人。皆答，318国道不知道，这里只有104国道。此时正午，烈阳高照，赤日炎炎。其中汗流浃背，口干舌燥。他娘的！不走了。他把车推至树荫下，小憩一会儿。无奈打开捆索，翻包取出地图仔细研究。这才发现318与104国道在长兴交汇，无其他道可走。那么，既然此路段共享，为何只104，不表318呢？看来这里是104的地盘，而非318的。走G104去长兴，确定了方向。疑惑释然，其中这才感到有些饿了。他骑车沿途寻找饭馆，这里沿线大都是修车铺，骑了老长一段路才看见一家饭店。这饭馆还挺大，一长排，两层楼建筑，门前两旁竖立着粗大圆木柱。房前有一大块空旷的场地，停着一辆运输卡车。其中把车靠在木柱旁，上台阶进门。大厅里吃饭人不多，靠窗有两人。其中也选了临窗一张桌子坐下，这样便于察看外面的单车。吃点什么？一个风韵致的三十岁左右的女人过来微笑问。其中费力地脱下潮湿的半指骑行手套回答，吃饭。哦！还是骑自行车的呀！来，我帮你把水灌满吧。很累吧！她笑着把桌上的水瓶拿过去。放满了开水她过来又说道，出门骑车都讲实惠，我给你来盘青椒肉丝、番茄蛋汤。饭尽吃，二十元钱怎么样？量不会少的，她又添了一句。行。其中站起接过水瓶，椅子上立马呈现一个屁股水渍印。饭桌上，其中狼吞虎咽地吃着饭。那女人（显然是老板娘）站在柜台内望着他笑着又问，师傅，你要骑到哪里去？其中头也没抬夹了一口菜，鼓着腮帮嚼道，西藏，拉萨。哇！你要骑自行车到拉萨去呀！我的妈哎！那窗前两个吃饭的中年男人不由诧异地扭头朝其中看了一眼。其中忽然想起国道的事便问她，老板娘，外面那条公路算104国道还是318国道？嗯——这个我不太清楚，应该是104吧。喏，你问那两个师傅，他们是司机应该知道的。老板娘手指靠窗的两个中年人说道。哦，其中起身走到他俩桌前询问。一位稍年长的告诉他，其实那条公路318也算，104也算。因为这一段路碑的是104，所以，这里附近的人都只知道是104国道。而不晓得318国道。这情况一般只有我们跑车的司机知道。另一位司机接着说，318国道从长兴开始向西进安徽，你的路没走错。哦！是这样。这一下其中是彻底放心了。“你从哪里过来的？”一司机问。“上海。”“你这样一个人骑车去拉萨要多少时间呀？”司机又问。“大约两个月吧。”“是公差？”司机再问。“呵呵，怎会是公差呢？不是。是骑车旅行。”“是旅行！唉！你这样不是在烧钱嘛！一路上的吃住花费不说，人还特别辛苦劳累的。太不值得了！”司机不解地直摇头。另一司机走到柜台前付账，转过身来笑着说：“这你就不懂了！人家这是精神享受。有钱人都这样。你知道那个万科的老板叫什么来着？对，叫王石，人家钱多了没处花，扔几十万去爬珠穆朗玛峰呢。”他扭头又对其中说：“那你到了拉萨怎么办？再骑回家？”“哦，不。车可以托运回去，我坐火车回上海。”看见对方已经用一种嘲讽不屑的语气和态度调侃，其中就不再往下说要往新疆走，识趣打住。“哎——，你这样骑车，可以称为英雄！应该打个电话叫奥巴马派他的专机来接你！哈哈哈”司机爽朗大笑。也笑出了沉沉的酒气。“呵呵，奥巴马的专机爆胎了，来不了西藏。我还是坐火车回去算了。”其中随口也捣浆糊道。一听到爆胎二字，两司机立马住了嘴。转身步出店外，朝那辆停着的卡车走去。其中暗想，不好！我说话不注意，似乎触及人家司机的忌讳。他望着窗外太阳底下两人背影，默默道，不好意思哟！我可不是有意的。都是跑长途的，也祝你们一路顺风！过李家巷镇，没有进长兴县城。318国道转向西进安徽。其中一路骑行，他几乎没有休息，顶多放慢速度。沿途的景色都差不多，他也懒得照相。空旷笔直的柏油路只有飞驶而过的汽车与之相伴，今天的目的地是安徽的广德。自别长兴以后，其中已感到脚力蹬踏有些费力了，公路两侧的广阔的原野已隐约山峦可见，这说明地势已明显升高。不过好在路况尚可，基本上不是柏油路就是水泥公路。呵呵，这世上人事有时真的很奇妙。其中从上海骑行至今，路况其实一直很好，他也从未去思想过这个好，这很自然。然而，此时此刻，不知道那根神经搭错。他突然之间想到了这个好，边骑边暗暗庆幸自以为得意起来时，反向的不如意境况立马就出现。让他着实地体会了一把什么叫事与愿违、什么叫心与事逆、什么叫别高兴得太早！“前方修路，左拐改走老318国道。”这是其中刚骑进安徽界不久，沿着崭新的水泥公路一路骑来。尽头处竖立一块木牌上写的告示。并用彩旗绳拦住去路。左拐就左拐喽！才没骑多远，眼前的公路哪叫路呀！整条道堆满石头，而且都是大石头，坑坑洼洼，高低不平，低凹石隙中积满着尘土，并且还是条上坡路。一路上汽车也只能缓慢而行。要命的是这样的车速还使其尘土飞扬，令人窒息。其中不敢懈怠，精神专注地握着车把，小心地往前骑着。他的前面有一辆白色轿车，正缓慢地S形往前挪移。他的身后跟着一辆大卡车在不停的喘气。这境况使每一个行者都憋着一鼓气，却都不能发飙。其中暗叹，战胜自然多不容易呀！突然，不知从哪里窜出一大一小的狗来，狂叫着直扑其中右脚踝，那气势简直要把他一口咬下车来。其中正憋着气没出撒，见此不由大吼一声，飞起一脚向外踢去。小黄狗立马后撤止步狂吠，大黑狗稍稍后退仍不死心地再次扑来。其中大怒，刹车跳车一气呵成，刚欲转身迎战。不料骑车因后座行李太重，人体转身，右手脱把，车头如骏马般高高腾起，他急忙压下车身，回头再望，狗早已不见踪影。他娘的死狗！他脱口怒骂了一句，继续推车向前。“喂——东西掉了。”其中回头看，身后的卡车司机正探出半身叫他。他低头一看，绑在车后大包上的相机三脚架掉在地上。赶忙捡起。冲着那年轻的卡车司机拱手致谢！那司机则嬉皮笑脸地双手学狗爪，做欲扑状。然后朝他竖起了大拇指。其中被他弄得哭笑不得！出烂道问路，广德还有一小时的路程，此时已是下午5点多了。前方是新修的宽广的公路，一马平川。没有车，也没有人。西沉的太阳通红通红的，将浮在天空中的白云染成了血色，一幅残阳如血的景象。其中精神振作，奋力踩踏着。远远望去，大路上，天地间，一人独骑迎着落日如夸父追日般飞快地向前，身影越来越小，越来越小。6点多抵达广德，骑行146.55公里。其中2012年8月8日 17：34客栈 D3、（皖）广德——南陵（2012.4.17晴123公里）昨晚在广德县城内找了一家旅馆，挺便宜的，只要20元。门口贴了张转让的告示，可见老板已无心经营，就像处理存货折价卖一样，随便给个价就算了。其中以为得了便宜，暗自窃喜。将车搬上二楼客房，狭窄的楼梯与过道黯然岑寂，楼梯的拐弯处亮着一只小小的黄灯泡。淡黄的灯光给人以森森悚然之感，脚踩在楼板上，不时会发出与脚步不相合的吱呀声响。其中总觉得这响声还会延伸，这头吱呀一声，隔秒后，那头也会呀吱一声回应。这里不会是龙门客栈吧！他似乎有些后悔。让他真正感到后悔的时候是在半夜。迷糊昏睡中的他猛然睁大了眼睛，他听到一种戚戚索索吱吱的声音，这声音离的很近，仿佛就在耳旁。他猛然起身抓起枕边的手电一照，只见三、四只硕大的老鼠在墙顶角线上乱窜。窗户上方有个手掌大的黑洞，响声和亮光的突然出现，使得这些老鼠慌不择路地钻进洞内，还不时探头张望观察。这***怎么睡呀！连老板都不想呆在这里，我还跑到这里来投宿，真是傻到根了！此时，他懊悔不已。最后，其中无奈地打开电视机，有个频道还在唠叨，结果啰嗦了一夜。借着电视屏幕的余光，他直直盯着洞口，洞口也有目光看过来。呵呵，似乎眷恋无比！彼此期待相持到黎明。天一亮，其中拔腿就走。旅馆旁不远处有家面馆开得特别早，店内已有几人在用餐，都是些一大早要出车的司机。其中也在此叫了碗炒面。向司机师傅问路，得知门前公路叫太极大道就是老318国道。去南陵向西直走即可。不过，几位司机师傅互笑着同时告诫其中此路段路况不太好。而后，又似乎安慰他说，比以前好多了，许多特别烂的路已经修好了。一听是老318国道，其中头就大了。他已经有走过一段老318国道的经历了。但凡新路总是弥补其老路的各种不足而重建的，其方便优越性很突出。所以许多车辆都会选择新路进出。新路也会引起当地公路管理部门的重视以及受到养护的青睐。然而，旧路就没有那么幸运了，它仿佛就像一个被岁月榨干精血的老人无情地被抛弃在那里，自生自灭。这是人类社会的一种除旧迎新现象？还是喜新厌旧的一种习俗？似乎没人会思考和回答这一问。如果说这是事物发展的自然规律现象，无可厚非。那么，悲哀的是这个千苍百孔，锉皮裸肉，奄奄一息的“老人”有时还要承受碾压和风雨的侵蚀，其深刻痛苦只有行者才能体会得到。太极大道是一条穿城而过的公路，从道名就可以看出也是广德城区的一条重要大街，曾是通向外域的主要通道，向西连接X018县道。这X018宣城双桥至广德的县道原本也是属老318国道宣城至广德段，东起广德县城区，西接宣城双桥。据司机师傅介绍说宣广高速通车后，才降为县道X018线的。当年曾风光，今朝已冷落。其中这才明白昨晚住宿的旅馆为何要转让。人不占领鼠占领，住宿生意是要靠交通来支撑的。其中沿着太极大道骑出广德，再沿X018县道向西。一路上虽有部分砂砾坑洼道途以及修路工地，却没有像第一次骑老G318那么严重糟糕。经花鼓乡、誓节镇。过十字镇、洪林镇。沿途基本上与宣广高速、沪渝高速公路平行而走，中午11点半抵达宣城。在宣城路边的饭馆吃了午饭，灌满了开水。他继续沿着宝城路西进，在到达宣广高速入口处，这才看见318国道的路碑，里程数为309。此时此刻，其中不由举起手来高兴地对着路碑行了个军礼，就像四处流浪的同志找到了组织一样。一公里、二公里、三公里.

.其中骑一公里，嘴里就数一下。因为再往前骑6公里，他就能看见315里程数的318路碑。3月15日是他的生日，所以他想在315数字的路碑旁摄影留念。最后在一个路边的拐角上看见。他想找人帮忙拍照，四下却无一人。公路右边朝里是个长途汽车临时停车场。尽里处停着一辆大客车，有几人等在一平房外。看来人有三急自然不会过来为他摄相。无奈，他只得将车靠在路碑旁，天太热也懒得解绳翻包取三脚架，就四下寻觅可垫置的石块。头顶上的天空一片湛蓝，没有一丝遮阳的云彩。太阳火辣辣的照射在地面上，大地如蒸笼一般。其中将相机搁在石头上，反复对了几次角度，自拍几张，还是不满意。弄得大汗淋漓。他抓起车把上的毛巾就往脸上擦，立马感到一阵刺痛，一看，手中毛巾早被太阳烤成铅皮一般。看看耽搁了不少时间，他收起相机顶着烈日继续朝南陵方向骑去。下午3点半多至南陵县城外的岔口，这里是G205、G318、S216 和S320等公路的交汇点，往来车辆特别多。其中本不想进城，因昨晚没有睡好，他只想尽快在公路旁找家旅社休息。同时，也便于明天的出行。进城的路口有不少两层楼的旅馆，但都号称是宾馆，开价都是60元以上，无还价余地。其中在往青阳方向的路口找到一家建在一坡上的家庭式客栈，牛气的老板娘开价35元。她振振有词道，我的房间非常干净，窗外视野非常开阔。你的车可以放在楼下厨房间，但决不能搬上楼。其中不还价，他耐心地同老板娘商量，他是骑车旅行的，人车不分离，望给予通融。没想到你求她牛，言语霸气，爱住不住。看着这个普通实在，口气硁硁，一身乡土气息的村妇，其中无言以对。真是人有优势气冲天啊！他转身索性往县城骑去。南陵县城打客栈和旅馆招牌的甚少，几乎全是宾馆。显然和这里四通八达的交通发达有关。住宿新旺自然客栈的档次也就上去了。县城商业繁荣，街铺鳞次节比。商店的装潢很时尚，给人以大城市商业街的感觉。其中毫无方向的转来兜去地瞎转悠，见宾馆就走，他知道人家会开价多少。最后，他正要想往老城区方向走时，在籍山路看见籍山旅社，很小的店铺门，然而环境非常干净整洁。有高、中、低的消费。单人普间开价40元，还价30元。OK！抗车上楼，时间尚早。其中把身上臭汗浸透了的满是盐渍印的汗衫换下。洗了澡，把脏衣服袜子全部洗掉。这才舒服地躺在床上，四肢大开如大字般。等他被窗外的汽车喇叭声吵醒时，已经晚上快八点了。上街吃了晚饭回到了旅社，手机铃响，一则短信跳出：老爸你到哪里了？怎么还不来短信汇报呀！“娇，抱歉！至皖南陵，骑123公里。”短信复。头一歪，他又睡去了。其中2012年8月11日14：00 D4、（皖）南陵——池州（2012.4.18阴转小雨108.98公里）翻开地图，南陵至池州约110公里左右。其中决定今天就骑到池州歇脚。退房出门的时候，帐台里的姑娘说，师傅今天有雨你还骑呀！哦？是吗？其中不由抬头朝门外天空望了望。天阴沉着脸，不见蓝色。呵呵，不管了！下雨也骑，走到哪里算哪里。风雨无阻，你真厉害！姑娘摇头叹曰。南陵出来的路况不错，都是平路。岔路口是个大圆圈，其中沿青阳方向走。此时正7点半左右，路上高峰时段，车水马龙。微风拂面，无阳光照射，其中感觉骑行特爽。趁着阴天和不错的心情，其中乘风赶路，马不停蹄。经峨岭镇、牌楼铺、三里镇。又过烟墩镇、乔木乡。在距离不到木镇镇约10多公里的路边，他看见一杂货店便停车进店。2块5毛钱买了一瓶百事可乐，热情的老板娘见其中是个骑车旅行的便搬来一张椅子招呼他坐下休息。喝着可乐，吃着上午买的蛋饼。其中便和快人快语的老板娘闲聊起来。老板娘看样子约45、6岁，目光炯炯，人很精神。爽快而热情，说话语速很快。很有趣的是当她得知其中是从上海骑自行车要去西藏时，不由双手捂嘴——哈哈大笑起来。而且大笑不止。弄得其中鼓着腮帮，一时竟忘了口嚼蛋饼呆望着她不知所措。大笑过后的老板娘一边抽搐着笑声一边问其中，你这是为什么呀？你这不是吃饱了撑的没事找事嘛！哦！其中此时也愣过神来，呵呵！呵呵！他无语干笑着，是啊！这不吃着呢，吃饱了再骑。你不用上班吗？你一定是大老板。大老板都是这样的，不用上班照样拿钱，而且拿大钱。钱多了没处花，吃饱撑着没事干。然后就做一般人不会做的事，想一般人不会想的事。哈哈哈，我说得对吧？她一通机关枪似的说话后笑着问其中。你看我像大老板的样吗？大老板吃这个？其中把手中的蛋饼杨了杨。那你这样长途骑行，工作不要啦？你应该还没退休吧。老板娘止住笑认真问道。呵呵，退休这事跟我没关系，没饭吃任何时候都不能退休的。我给自己放些天假出去玩玩，骑车穷游而已嘛。其中随口答道，这种事也不能都让大老板们独揽，普通人也可尝试一下的。不就骑自行车嘛，又不是开飞机。吃饱肚皮都能骑，你说呢？其中笑着问她。这倒也是。老板娘若有所思。将来呀，你一定也会骑自行车去西藏的。其中神秘兮兮道，一定会，我的预言很准的哟！我？是啊！为什么？将来这杂货店慢慢搞大了。然后，你又开了好几家分店，最后形成了一个杂货店集团公司，再后来，公司上市了。你的身价一下子几十亿，甚至上百亿。那时，你也就成了大老板。那时，你也不用上班就可以拿大钱。到时吃饱了撑的也会没事干，到时你就会骑车去西藏了。哈哈哈——老板娘闻之高兴得又大笑起来，你们上海人真会说话！吃饱喝足。其中站起身来：“这里离木镇还有多远？”“咦！前面是木镇你也知道？”老板娘疑惑地看着其中。“怎么会不知道，当然知道。地图上不是都有嘛！”其中不屑道。“呵呵，上海人真聪明！怪不得人家都说上海人很精乖的。前面就是木镇了，不远！大概有十几公里吧。”别了杂货店，其中继续骑行。路上不由感慨，人的表质常常是多面性的，老板娘精明而能干，但对某些事物的看法却显得那么的单纯和感性。这或许是远离城市的人际与喧嚣的缘故吧，可见环境对于人的品性铸就多么的至关重要。途经木镇，这里 G318、S103同路，中午12点半多，其中沿木镇路进了青阳县城。原本可以不进青阳县城的，右拐可以直接往池州走。但看见路去青阳只有一公里路程，其中尚未午餐，便想进城找饭馆吃饭，怕错过了路上一时无馆可餐就惨了。青阳城内，路边有许多农家饭菜的饭馆，价钱也不贵。炒鸡肉加蔬菜连带米饭一客才8元。只是菜中重油，像打翻了油瓶一般。可见青阳人好油一口。就餐时碰到一位年长老者，当地人，颇有文化人风范。他看见门外的骑车便问其中，此行欲往何处？得知其中要去西藏，连说了不起！读万卷书，行万里路。此行定会获益无穷。他告知其中，青阳也值得一游，此地历史悠久，西汉时期就开始置县，称作陵阳；唐代改置为青阳县，沿用至今。文化古迹甚多。青阳南靠九华山、黄山；北临长江，亦是一处山灵水秀云游的好地方哟。其中叹曰，此行道远途长，皆已计划安排，不能停留。今为路过，日后定将重返此地一游。与老先生叙别后，其中前往池州。青阳至池州大约40多公里，并不算太远。然而，其中却越骑越累，深感疲惫。正纳闷呢！无意回首一望，原来前进道路乃是缓上破，往前看还真看不出来！他使劲骑了一阵，最终不得不下车推行。此时此刻，他首次潜意识的感到前途的艰难与渺茫。以往的自信似乎在疑惑，还在安徽就骑不动！那么，在西藏雪域4、5千米以上海拔的高原上如何骑行？总不能一直推车至西藏吧。想到这里，他不由再次骑上车，咬牙蹬踩。但速度如蜗牛爬行般，前移，前移。大拐弯向西，前方是九华山景区。怪不得地势在升高，路上几乎无人，偶尔驶过一辆卡车。午后天气极其闷热，使得其中心中更加烦躁起来。唉！他娘的！不骑了。他将车靠在一路边灯柱上，一屁股就坐在地上。呵呵，路上他对自己发脾气的时候常常这样，以罢骑来宣泄或者抗争内心的信心和勇气。老子不骑了，你信心再强，勇气再大顶个屁用。不过，最终总是信心和勇气战胜了他自己，迫使其中再次骑上他的白色坐骑前行。他第一次感到在行西途中，人的躯体和精神是会分离的，两者还会对抗。天色渐渐暗下来，一大片乌云不知什么时候已经飘至其中的头顶上。有下雨的迹象了，其中使出了吃奶的力气拼命地蹬车。骑过望华禅寺、骑过五溪镇、骑过墩上乡、骑过马衙镇，终于在下午3点半点靠近了池州。远远望去，池州城外的马路宽广无比。沿着凌阳大道一鼓作气冲进城内。天开始下雨了，雨滴渐渐大了起来。其中赶紧过马路，找有商店的街道躲雨。“喂，师傅住宿吗？”其中刚过马路就被一女子迎面拦住问道，“要躲雨是吧，来，到我店里来躲吧。”其中进店：“这是卖建材的，你怎么拉人住宿？”“哦，是这样的，这是我的店，我还开旅社，就是我家里。装修的很干净的，你去看一下吧，淋浴，空调，电视机都有，单人间。”女子热情地介绍。其中这才仔细打量起这女子，三十多岁，肤色稍黑，盘着头发，长相一般，穿着普通。他有些犹豫，因为他想找有门面正常营业的旅社，压根就没想过要去那种街上拉客的私人客栈。他望着店外没吭声。雨越下越大，他进退两难。“师傅，我家旅社是政府登记注册的，很正规的。”女人很聪明，她看出其中内心的疑虑。“你去看一下就知道了。”“那在哪里？远不远？”其中转过头问。“不远呀，就在店旁的过道进去，在楼上。”女人答，“我帮你把车推到楼下，带你上去看，没事的。”其中将车停在底楼的过道里，跟着女人上了楼。这是一幢还没有完全竣工的住宅楼。楼内还是毛坯的，楼梯没装护手，各个角落都推满了生活垃圾。“哇靠！你们这是什么楼呀！还没造好就住人啦？”其中脱口而出。“开发商说等有钱了再来弄。”女人回过头来说。其中一路上去，看见不少人家门口都挂着旅社、客栈的牌子。显然，这里的住户都在开旅馆，这倒让其中稍稍心安。如果只有她一家，其中反而觉得不安全了。女人在502室门前驻足，门虚掩着。进屋观察，屋子收拾得比较干净，与外面过道的卫生有天然之别。朝南一间装有空调，电视机，带有独立的卫生间。一张大床。女人开价40元。其中还价30元，说楼层太高。女人死活不肯，但又缠着其中住下，说她可以帮其中搬拎驮包和自行车。说实在的，这样的房间要是在旅馆或是宾馆里，起码也要60元以上的。最后，其中还是答应住下了。安顿停当。其中出门吃晚饭。雨后，傍晚时分的池州人来车往，显得非常热闹，路边的小吃、排挡也很多。满街的飘香，诱人的佳肴使人驻足品尝，大快朵颐。饭后的其中，独自一人漫步街头。回到住处的过道口，一群人围坐在那里闲聊。看见其中过来，有人道，喂！骑车的朋友，去哪里溜达了？好好在池州玩两天吧，这里可是个好地方哟！其中朝众人点了下头，笑而未答。进过道上楼，他暗想，再过些时日，这楼里的居民也该唱出傩戏才行了。哦！忘了说了今天其中骑行108.98公里。其中2012年8月14日2107 D5、（皖）池州——潜山（2012.4.19多云126.25公里）早上7点多，其中退了房。抗车下楼，捆好驮包。沿长江南路向西出池州。经过涓桥镇、殷汇镇、途经铜山乡、庆丰乡。继续向前不久，便来到了安庆汽渡口，渡口极普通，三个不高的方形石柱杵在那，石柱的顶端顶着似工字的石雕。石柱间的通道直达江边，过了江，池州就正式跟你说“欢迎再次光临”了。其中骑车至渡口，四周空荡荡的，就连收费处的小窗也紧闭着。如果没有瞥见一侧的木房里有人聊天，他还以为这里已是废弃的渡口呢。他将骑车靠在一旁，拿出早上在池州街上买的粢饭团一边观赏着渡口旁高高矗立的铁索拉桥一边大口嚼了起来。一会儿，两辆三轮小包车及一辆小轿车开了进来，随后，跟进来几辆摩托车，狭窄的通道就挤满了。其中边上停着一辆摩托车，车上坐着一个肤色黝黑四十多岁的中年男子，绝顶无发。见其中车后大包小包的不由笑问，你这是去哪里呀？其中答，跑西藏。男子甚为惊诧。他饶有兴趣地和其中聊起行走的路线以及一路须经过的地方。听得出此人是个走南闯北到过不少地方的老江湖，他告诉其中，以前他搞过不少行业，现从事养殖业，这工作很幸苦。如果不是患有较严重的膝盖关节炎，他真想和其中一起自由自在地骑车走天下，语言中透出极大的羡慕来。来，来，让开一下，开始收费了。从一侧木房里出来个女人朝过道中间的收费处走去。人们在收费小窗口排队，其中排在那男子后面。男子说，为表我对你的敬意，你的过江费我请客。那怎么好意思！其中拒绝。区区3块钱，不必客气。其中谢过，俩人便骑车过道，一起上了江边的摆渡船。池州与安庆隔江相望，江面开阔，驳舸争流。高耸的铁索拉桥跨江而过，与江对岸的高楼遥相呼应。太阳直射在江面上，将泛起的浪花照得波光粼粼，使人有点睁不开眼睛。啊！你快看，江豚。男子手指前方。其中顺着其指的方向遥望，似乎看见远处江面上有鱼在拱跃。唉！现在长江里能看见江豚是越来越少了！它是国家一级保护动物。以前还能看见白色的江豚，现在几乎是看不见了。男子语气里带着深深的惋惜。再过一、二十年呀！恐怕连黑色的都看不见喽！旁边的三轮小包车司机插言道。是啊！要是这么大的江里连一条鱼都没法生存！真是不可想象呀！这事还真不好说哟！另一旁人接着说。其中没有说话，他只是默默地望着江面愣神。怎么样？老哥，到安庆市里我们找个地方喝几杯，好好聊聊，我请客。男子拍了下其中热情邀请。哦！不，谢谢了！我还要赶路，怕误了行程。其中婉拒。还是你好呀！多自由多自在呀！等明年我两个孩子大学毕业了，要是腿脚好一点的话，我一定也像你一样骑出去。你孩子多大了？男子转而又问。我结婚晚，孩子小，在读初中呢。还是你好呀！孩子都快大学毕业了。其中笑着对他说道。男子似乎微羞显涩。你不算晚的。他语气转而坚定起来，你看人家杨振宁80多岁还结婚呢，娶了个小他50岁的小女人。和他比老哥你根本不算晚的，你只是有点亏了！哈哈哈。我怎么能和人家比呀！人家是大知识分子、大文化人哟！其中哑然失笑。网上说，他老婆的父亲后来娶了杨振宁的孙女为妻哟，这层关系我看是怎么理都理不清了。哼！还大知识分子呢！理得清，理得清！不就是杨振宁的老丈人是杨振宁的孙女婿嘛！对吧？其中笑着说道。哈哈哈，四周人闻之大笑。这老家伙厉害！劲道足！人家大知识分子文化高，大彻大悟呢！人群中东一句，西一言。渡船在笑声中不知不觉驶抵对岸。人车上岸，各自离去。出渡口，其中沿渡口路北上直行，不见318路碑。他一直信奉‘口是江湖，脚是路’这一出门原则，又恐遇到戏弄胡诌之人。所以，一般问路至少两人以上，如果答复一样则可信。呵呵，此法称之为重复证明法。迷途中，他连问三个路人，都说走国道206至月山镇。心中暗想这里很可能和在浙江时，湖州至长兴路段一样，G318是借道而行的。也就是说，安庆至月山镇路段本来应属G206路段的，南北走向。而东西走向的G318在月山镇才往西去潜山。这就是此处看不到G318路碑而只见G206路碑的原因。他的这个判断应该是正确的，其中沿G206前往月山镇。这一路上几乎都是汽车修理铺。接近中午时分，太阳高照，赤日炎炎，路边的梧桐树在阳光下似乎停止了呼吸，枝条和树叶皆纹丝不动。早上带出来的三瓶水早已喝完，其中口干舌燥，仿佛置身于烤箱中一般。他还第一次想找个阴凉处歇会儿。此时此刻，他发现前面有一家饭店。幸喜若狂地飞骑而至，直冲店门口，一个急刹车在门前的黄土地上留下深深的轮胎迹，吓得坐在门前椅子上的两个厨师阿姨一下子弹了起来。吃饭，吃饭，有水吗？他将车往门柱上一靠，进门就嚷。有水，有水，你要吃什么？跟在他屁股后面的俩阿姨齐声回答。青椒肉丝，番茄蛋汤。快点，我饿了。其中在一空桌前坐下。擦汗——哎哟！他忘了毛巾已经硬邦邦的了。一阿姨进厨房做菜，另阿姨端着一杯茶递上。其中接过，谢谢！能不能把我的毛巾给湿一下？好的。哦哟！满头大汗！阿姨接过毛巾进厨房。饭菜上桌，其中先盛了碗汤喝。啊！太鲜美了！此时普通的番茄蛋汤胜比山珍海味。他不由眯起了眼睛静静地享受一下入口下喉，穿肠进胃的鲜汤。真是解渴解乏提精神，脱口道，真乃参汤也！不是参汤，人参汤怎么会是10块钱？厨师阿姨笑道。啊！其中故作惊讶，这番茄蛋汤10块钱，太贵了吧！不贵的，两个菜收你20块钱，都是这个价。刚才你还说是“参汤”呢，参汤只收你10块钱，你不要太合算哟！阿姨抿嘴一笑，娇态可掬。哈哈哈，其中大笑。似乎浑身的疲劳已消一半。汤足饭饱，开水灌满。其中告别了饭店阿姨（老板娘）又继续上路了。下午1点30分左右到达月山镇。穿镇而过，直奔潜山县城而去。经石境乡、黄墩镇、过三桥镇，于下午4点多抵达潜山县城，行程126.25公里。潜山县地处大别山南麓，南靠长江黄金水道，当属山灵水秀之地。春秋时期，潜山系皖国封地，是皖国的都城，安徽省简称皖，即源出于此。如此历史悠久，山川秀美的地方着实令无数人向往。不过，其中对于此地的传说别的不知，记忆深刻的却是三个奇女子。一个是美丽聪慧的民女刘兰芝，另两个就是国色天香的姐妹花大小二乔。兰芝嫁小吏，棒打鸳鸯逼投井，引出一曲绝唱《孔雀东南飞》。二乔嫁策瑜，荣华富贵享不尽，逼出一场著名战役——赤壁大战。可见前者令男人爱怜有加，悲悯不已。后者可使男人醋缸暴饮，嫉妒成性。（呵呵，曹公吃醋，是诸葛亮说的）其中不善记人名，只知人事。常常人事张冠李戴，笑话无穷。若被其中记住人之名讳，此人必名震江湖，如雷贯耳。三女生于东汉末年，距今近2000年，可见其名气震苍穹，余音千年不绝。而今其中挥汗如雨，骑车至此，却身不由己地穿街走巷，逛新区溜老城。既非寻客栈，又不觅宾馆。东张西望，神思千年此彷徨。足见潜山赋予人的特殊魅力之所在。呵呵，不过最后，他既没看见兰芝的后人，也没寻到二乔的传人。夜幕降临，其中无奈地投宿一家普通旅社，却没想到隔壁是一家歌舞厅。晚上躺在床上，伴随他的是震耳的歌声——我的热情好像一把火燃烧了整个沙漠太阳见了我也会躲着我它也会怕我这把爱情的火沙漠有了我永远不寂寞开满了青春的花朵我在高声唱你在轻声和陶醉沙漠里的小爱河你给我小雨点滋润我心窝我给你小微风吹开你花朵爱情里小花朵属於你和我我们俩的爱情就像热情的沙漠其中在迷迷糊糊中猜想着，谁在唱？是焦仲卿？是孙策？周瑜？还是曹操。。。。。。其中2012年8月16日 19：55D6、（皖）潜山——岳西（2012.4.20阴转小雨54.37公里）今天一大早，其中就起床了。翻开地图，潜山至岳西段53公里，国道318与国道105同路。岳西至湖北英山110公里。国道318至岳西向西，而国道105过岳西北上。故在潜山至岳西段其中估计很可能G105路碑的，而至岳西向西始G318路碑。其中决定今天出皖进鄂，落脚湖北英山县。虽里程约163公里，比较长。但他想早出晚至，途中加把力应该可以赶到的。但他忽略一个问，那就是地形已悄然发生了很大的变化。从安庆过来至潜山一路平坦，属皖河流域。然一出潜山就是天柱山，再往西至岳西就逼近大别山了。国道105从潜山始向岳西方向去基本上是沿皖河支流潜水逆行进入湖北的丘陵山地带。所以，山路蜿蜒，越走越陡。逶迤曲折的上坡路如当头棒喝，首次残酷无情有力地打击了其中的信心，挫败其勇气。两座大山——天柱山及大别山正严正以待地瞪着他的到来：自以为是的老菜鸟，不给你点颜色看看，你如何知道俺湖北的门槛有多高！正所谓山不是垒的、海不是尿的、牛皮不是吹的。你敢放马过来，哼！立马教你趴下回沪！此时的其中尚不知晓前路艰难正沿着舒州大道飞快骑来，大道上车辆不多，行人稀少。不多久，他转入天柱山路朝着潜山城外骑去。途径天柱山楼门，相当气派。其中不由驻足观赏（呵呵，他竟有此闲心！），该门楼三层琉璃瓦顶，最里门宽为最高层，依次降层外展两侧门，共为三层。充分表现了中国传统门楼建筑的风格和气派。因今日路途较长，他只匆匆一览便错身而过。出城后，果然走105国道。一路猛骑，计划至岳西县城吃午饭。10点半多到达水吼镇，其中暗忖，怎么会有如此怪的镇名！难道这水吼镇名与山势有关？莫非是潜水急流吼于此？呵呵，他又自以为是的胡思乱想起来。由于时间尚早，他没有午餐的打算。他自言自语道，哼！什么吼水镇，如此急吼吼的！还挂牌路中。老子就不在此消费，你吼你的，我走我的，他很潇洒地穿镇而过。不过，还似乎真让他猜中了。此附近有一吼水岭，因潜水下流在此骤拐，涛声如吼，故曰吼水岭。吼水镇名即源于此。可见，胡思乱想者未必就是胡思乱想，懵对了那就是无比英明的正确思想。呵呵，天才与笨蛋常常不过隔一丝之差而已。一出吼水镇，其中立马感觉到骑得很沉重。他坚持骑了很长一段山路，呵呵，这个老菜鸟此时初露端倪。他竟以3挡（最快挡）爬坡。在上海练骑车时，他一直用3—8挡（最快速）骑的。也曾以3—7、6、5等档骑过，觉得不过瘾。甚至觉得这些档没意思。有一次在车行里他就此问过老板这个问。他记得老板闻之瞥了他一眼，随口道，你在城市里骑用不着，慢档是在山里爬山时用。尽管他知道什么是快档，什么是慢档，如何调节。但从心里以为慢档几乎是无用的，也从来没用过。如今，漫长曲折的爬坡路开始了。他真是骑得很累很累！大口喘，死命蹬，汗如雨，蜗牛行。幸亏老天爷怜悯他，用一大片白云遮挡住了太阳。偶尔，也朝山路上吹几口气，使他在极度的疲惫中也能感觉一些凉爽。否则，他或许就会一头栽地，中暑不起。此时，他想起车行老板的话，‘山里爬山用慢档。’他开始调节车速，3—7、3—6、3—5，换了慢档果然脚上轻许多，但踩了几下又沉重无比。再往下调，似乎又轻了，瞬间复重。直至1—2档，其中突然觉得脚很轻，踩起来像是在空踩。用力蹬几圈，骑车竟左右摇摆几下，***它竟罢行了。哦靠！其中真气不打一处来，老子还没罢骑，你倒先给老子罢行了？他跳下车，气恼地将车往地上一扔，一屁股坐在地上。就在这时候，突然，一阵强烈的饥饿感袭来，没东西吃。他不由狠狠责骂起其中来，刚才为什么不在吼水镇吃好午饭，就是不吃饭也起码买点干粮呀！怎么这么笨呢？这样急吼吼地骑行，真是有病！呵呵，真是人嘴两张皮，上嘴皮刚骂了吼水镇急吼吼。没过多久，下嘴皮又开骂其中急吼吼了。可见文字本无错，嘴皮用关键。其中坐在路边，阵阵春风吹来，稍感惬意。他从口袋里摸出一颗荷氏清凉糖，含在嘴里。喝了一口仅存的半瓶水，看了看码表，到达岳西估计还有20多公里。已经过了正午了，看来到岳西县城吃午饭已不可能，今天要抵达英山更不可能。他开始认真反思自己的自信与勇气，反思自己的体能，反思自己的决心与计划。觉得自己实在太盲目乐观了，以为自己炼了半年就自觉武功上乘，就能纵横江湖行天下？想想实在可笑！他拿出地图认真研究起来，这才意识到已接近丘陵山地。现在是天柱山，明天就要挺进大别山了。过了湖北进重庆、四川，难于上青天的蜀道还在后头，再往后进军西藏高原。按这样的速度哪年哪月抵达西藏？骑不动怎么办？搭车去？不行！其中断然拒绝，这样还不如坐火车飞机呢。推车去？那要推到什么时候？那么，回去？练好了再来？其中坐在地上，思前想后，没有一个决定，他神色呆呆地望着眼前路边的草丛无所适从。一阵风吹来，将小草吹得左右摇摆。仿佛对其中说，老菜鸟你知道厉害了吧！回去吧！你能骑到这里已经算不错了。哼！还想走新藏线去新疆，简直是天方夜谭嘛！其中突地跃起，他神色凶恶，双眼布满杀气。一把将摇头摆尾的小草连根拔起，一扬手仍了出去。去你的！西藏，老子去定了。他大喝一声。他当即决定，今天不去英山，去岳西立马减负，把装有帐篷睡袋的大包寄回上海。新疆不去了，留着下次去。此行起码要至拉萨，到拉萨后视情况再做其他决定。主意决定。他抓起骑车，呵呵笑道，你躺在这里干什么？想耍赖？跟我一起去拉萨吧。考验我们的时候到了，你可不能趴下哟，老子离不开你哟！他摸出路书纸看一下接下来的乡镇。不看不打紧，一看笑死他。竟叫什么割肚乡、响肠镇。不由自言自语地笑道，取此乡镇名的人不会也是从水吼镇一路走来饿得饥肠咕噜疲惫不堪才取此名吧。哈哈哈，这一笑他似乎心情好了许多。一路孤身骑行，其中既无随身听，也没带骑行音箱。漫长的路途他靠什么来解闷调节心态的呢？呵呵，他就靠这样胡思乱想的思绪来解闷，来自嘲，来取乐。他当然不知道其来源于潜山人文古典故事——周公割肚。胡思差之千里也！潜山在天柱山的东麓，岳西在天柱山的西麓。逶迤的山路上，其中孤身一人，时而推车行走，时而骑车龟行。上坡推，下坡骑。水喝完了，饥饿感更加厉害，响肠阵阵。无尽的上坡路拐了一圈又一圈，给人以渺茫无望的感觉和怨恨。他坚持着，前进着。也似乎要崩溃了。正当他咬牙低头使劲往上推车时，听见有人在叫他，喂！朋友，要去哪里呀？其中抬头，看见两个穿着骑行服头戴骑行头盔的男子，四十岁左右。正停车微笑地看着自己。嗨！你们好！他有气无力地招呼一声，去岳西。你们呢？其中问。我们是安庆的，刚从岳西过来。男子轻松愉快地回答。前面的路况怎样的？其中赶紧问道。前面大约再有8公里的上坡吧，以后路就比较平坦了。哦！！谢谢了！再见。其中道谢后没有继续聊，他推着车向前走着。试想一个人在及其疲惫，无比饥饿，几乎崩溃的时候是多么想看到或听到一句——怎么讲？是希望，是曙光吧！然而他听到的却是还有更加长的艰难路程在等着他。失望的心情使他不想再说一句话，他也不管礼貌不礼貌，推着车就往前走了。一步一步地往前走，没有再回头看一下。令他压根就没有想到的是他大约推了一公里多点时，发觉已经到顶了。刚才那位朋友不是说还有8公里上坡吗？怎么就到顶了？他几乎不相信眼前的下坡道。他下意识地转过身来看看来时的上坡路，又朝远处眺望着。此时，他内心在想什么？他又看什么？愣神了一会儿，竟憋出这样一句话来，他娘的，给我“吃药”嘛！转而又哈哈哈大笑起来。跳上车，倏地朝下冲去。爽呀！点刹减速，转弯，冲。一圈又一圈。整整6公里下坡，让其中爽快无比。下坡以后，山路果然开始平坦起来。路边看见一家农户，其中进去要水，主人很客气，立马灌满一瓶开水。他谢过后喝了两口润了润干燥的喉咙。尽管肚子很饿，响肠不断。但他的心情已经好了许多，山民告诉他，前方不再会有大的上坡道，响肠镇以后基本上就直接下坡抵达岳西县城了。听到这话，其中心中无比愉悦和慰籍，终于熬过来了！天柱山使他首次体验到了平坦的上坡路并不好走。快到下午一点半多，在接近响肠镇时，他终于看见前方不远有一家小卖部。但看见店铺门前有6、7个年轻男子在聊天，旁边停着好几辆摩托车，他有些犹豫，要不要过去？肚子已经饿得前胸贴后背了。独自一骑过去，似乎不太安全。在这空旷无人的山里，骑行安全也是不可忽视的。在犹豫思考的同时，他没有减速。此刻，他看到了那些人已经扭头正望着山路上突然出现的骑车人。就在一晃而过的同时，其中忽然决定过去，他刹车、转过车轮，下公路直接朝店铺门前骑去。门前6、7个年轻男子默默地注视着他，无言。他将车靠在树旁，径自入店。买了两桶方便面，问老板娘是否有开水可以泡。年轻的女主人说有，她帮其中泡好面，拿出一个板凳让其中坐着吃。这时，一个约30多岁的男子打破沉默问，怎么只有你一个人呀？掉队了吧。其中笑笑，还有几个人在后面呢。旁边一人也开口问，你这辆车不错哟，多少钱？这车起码也要5000多元！另一男子替其中作了回答。其中笑着说道，没有这么贵的，这只是普通的山地车，才2000多块钱。听说好的自行车很贵的！首问的男子接过其中的话尾说道。对啊！其中转头说，好车要一万多呢。呵呵，这是最普通的车。师傅要去哪里？一人又问。去岳西。其中答后便低头慢悠悠的吃着面条，似乎不再理会这些人。这群男子开始以方言大声聊着，其中听不懂，好像彼此相噱着，哈哈哈大笑着。一会儿功夫，便各自骑上摩托车开走了，其中看见他们驶向不同的方向。吃完了面条，其中顿觉精气十足。他想起孩提时代，老舅来上海为哄他多吃饭常挂在嘴上的一句话，人是铁，饭是钢，吃了才能硬邦邦。不由摸了摸肚皮，的确是鼓鼓的。老板娘笑着问他，吃饱了吗？没饱再吃。哈哈哈，其中大笑，饱了！饱了！。阴沉的天空此时飘下些小雨滴，风好像也比上午大了起来。不过，始终是小雨滴飘飘。过了响肠镇以后，其中已不再响肠了。一路下坡，顺风顺路，在下午2点45分骑至岳西县城。一看码表，今天才骑行了54.37公里。他立马找了家旅社住下，即可整理行李，尽可能的精简，连同帐篷、睡袋、三脚架等放在一个最大的购物包内，至县邮局寄回了上海。走出邮局大门，他似乎感觉身上轻松了好多，步伐也轻盈了起来。走进超市，选购了红肠、鸡腿、牛奶、卤蛋等以备明天路上垫饥的食品。呵呵，这下他有经验了，不会饿着肚子骑行，也不会响肠，明天他将挺进大别山，其中想起了刘伯承元帅的一句名言，狭路相逢勇者胜。他神色严峻地望着远处的山脉群峰，似乎在说，大别山，明天老子就来骂山门。其中2012年8月22日 13：55D7、（皖）岳西——（鄂）英山（2012.4.21多云109.5公里）安徽天柱山大别山地区是安徽重要的茶叶生产，批发和经营集散地。其中昨天一路骑来，沿途山坡上种植的茶树随处可见，空气中似乎也弥漫着一股清馨的茶香。岳西县城几乎挤满了茶叶批发和经营的徽商，零售与批发商铺满县城都是，店铺门前、大街行人道旁到处皆堆放着用大而透明的塑料袋装着的新嫩碧绿的新茶。怪不得中国十大名茶之中，出自安徽茶叶就占了三成。其中借宿的旅店老板也经营茶叶，他好像没有专门的茶叶店，而是把一袋袋茶叶堆放在旅店门前的街道上，就地批发或零售。显然，这是他的地盘他做主，充分利用。其中昨天进入岳西时，好像没有看见像城管一类的人，这或许是岳西茶叶商的福分吧。一大早，其中抗车下楼准备出发了。朦朦的清晨，岳西县城早已人声鼎沸，熙熙攘攘。兴旺的茶叶批发也带动了餐饮业的发展，各种小吃早点摊位与店铺尽人挑选，使一早出行的人不愁没得吃。其中花3块钱吃碗炒面，量多而鲜美，吃得是肚皮鼓鼓的。今天要进大别山了，不能确定能否赶在镇上吃午饭，他再花2块7毛钱买了块大米糕备着。吃得饱饱的，准备了充足的粮草。旅店的老板很客气，不仅帮他捆好驮包，还为他灌满了三瓶开水。其中虽然只住了一天，但与旅店老板、伙计等已经聊得很熟了。大家的热情、敬佩和鼓励使得其中内心更加觉得前进二字的无比沉重。浪头是甩出去了（沪语：说大话）人家闻之敬之。这对其中来说，呵呵！犹如自断后路，大别山就是刀山火海他也要前进了。这就是甩浪头、拍胸脯的代价。大别山位于皖、鄂、豫三省交界处，西接桐柏山，东延为霍山（皖山）和张八岭，东西绵延约380公里，南北宽约175公里。西段作西北—东南走向，东段作东北—西南走向，长270千米一般海拔500～800米，山地主要部分海拔1500米左右，是长江与淮河的分水岭。其地理位置相当特殊，东指南京，西临武汉。北枕淮河，南靠长江，在东部长江中下游平原突兀而起。当年刘邓大军千里跃进大别山，出可横扫平原直取武汉南京，退可休整隐匿山岭，足见其一跃之大智慧。我要以刘邓大军千里跃进之精神挺进大别山。呵呵，不过，我可不想隐身其中，我要当天直取英山进湖北。其中看着地图自言自语道。沿建设路骑行出城没多久就开始爬坡，其中自觉少了个大包车轻了许多，他调慢档使劲往上骑着。但不一会就大汗淋漓了，腿异常的沉重。其实，他调档还是有问的，他依然还是把前轮维持最高速3档，将后轮从8档依次往下调。这样，就是最后调到3—1档以后，他还是觉得踩起来很吃力。所幸他没有使劲拼命踩，否则很容易将车轴屏坏的。他也试着调到2—1或1—2档，但踩起来就像空打转，脚使不上劲，蹬踩频率要快许多，车速却极慢且人依然非常疲劳，他很不习惯这样骑车。所以，他干脆就推车，觉得推车还比这样骑车要省力及快一些呢。今天一上坡就是个大长坡，大别山似乎立马就要给其中一个下马威。老天爷也好像要考验一下其中的耐劳、耐力以及耐心的强度似的，将酷热的阳光毫无保留地尽泻而下。山路上，没有一个人。四周无声，连虫鸣鸟叫声都没有，安静无比。只有其中推着自行车汗流浃背艰难地行走着，阳光将他的影子拖得长长的。其中一直顶着烈日坚持着，渐渐地，渐渐地又将自己的影子收回脚底下。太阳似乎很生气，正午时分，灼热的阳光更加猛烈，不得不使其中躲在一小片树荫下小憩。俯瞰岭下，蜿蜒曲折的公路犹如一条白色巨蟒被炫目的阳光炙烤得奄奄一息匍伏在山岭间一动不动，热气弥漫在空气中，远远望去似乎有些恍惚，连他自己都不相信是怎么走上来的。抬头仰望，山岭上树木葱郁，花草葳蕤，却又显得那么生机盎然。肚子咕咕叫了，其中开始进食。吃了米糕，嚼了红肠，啃了鸡腿，喝了牛奶，浑身又力气增生。抬头朝对面的山坡瞭望，一辆小车从山顶拐出，没多久就从其中身边疾驶而过。快到顶了，加油！他起身继续推车上行。山里的路就是这样，看看很近，好像就在眼前不远。可走起来却要花费很长时间。将近一小时，其中终于踏上垭口。伫立山崖边，举目四望。山脉横亘，群峰起伏连绵。白云苍狗，翠绿蓊翳。令人阔胸吐纳，心旷神怡。刚才推车的疲惫似乎已荡然无存，胸腔顿生一鼓豪迈之气。脚下山脉我是峰，天地沧海几重重。登高翱翔合云翥，不到青藏非英雄。下坡至来榜镇，出镇又上坡。下坡到河图镇，再上坡。就这样，其中在大别山里拐了一圈又一圈，似乎怎么也走不出来似的。在行至一个三岔路口右拐后，又遭遇了上坡道。精疲力尽地推了一段路，迎面过来一对山里老夫妇领着一个小女孩，仨看见浑身汗水的其中推车过来颇感惊讶，黝黑沧桑的脸庞微微张着嘴朝其中憨笑着。小女孩瞪着乌黑的大眼睛，好奇又茫然，小脸上有些黑灰，却不失俊俏。当四人插身而过时，其中不由地停下脚步。他喘着笑问，老大爷，这上坡路还有多远呀？大爷憨笑，还有好多哟！都是上坡。其中闻之，失望而迷茫。他低头看了下小女孩，从口袋里摸出几颗糖怜爱地递给她。大爷憨笑着，大娘也憨笑着。他又麻木地朝前走去。下午近3点，他独自一人坐在路边的石头上休息。一侧头竟看见不远处有一个骑友正低头缓慢地蹬车骑来，至前停下互聊，方知还有两个骑友落在后面，都是从上海出发去拉萨的。他们比其中晚一天出发，如今已经赶上了。骑友告诉其中，他是河北的，名叫王雍，三十多岁。后面有他的一个在上海工作的朋友叫豁大。此次的骑行就是豁大邀请他一起骑行的。另外一个年轻人晔青，二十多岁是杭州的骑友，路上碰上的。一会儿，豁大和晔青过来了，大家寒暄后一起向前骑去。山路上不时传来疲弱的嬉笑声，其中始觉得这山里有了点人气。进入湖北前是一路大长坡，路况也好。这四人犹如放开缰绳的野马飞一般地往下冲，豁大最前，王雍第二，第三是晔青，最后一个才是其中。呵呵，一个人骑行放马奔腾时，其中一直以为他是属于那种驰骋疆场的骑手。因为他没人超过他，耳旁呼呼的风声显示的是其中的高速度。如今，四人同驰，胆量和勇气是保持高速的基础。年轻人面对越来越快的速度依然敢放闸下行，即使在拐弯时也是侧体斜进不减速。不得不令其中佩服那弧线转弯的身姿是多么的潇洒与漂亮。说实在的，其中还真不敢始终放闸，勇往直下，他总是用点刹来控制车速，呵呵！与其说是控制，不如说是胆怯或是驾驭骑车的能力尚不够。不是不知道，而是没比过！真可谓山外山，楼外楼。他常常用“长江后浪推前浪”的说法来掩饰其落后尴尬的表现。进入湖北界以后天色渐渐暗淡下来，距离英山县尚有近35公里的路程。道像是接近山麓了，路况却差了许多。公路旁没有路灯，漆黑笼罩。打开骑行灯，在夜色中小心骑行着。不时经过的大小车辆凭借着大灯泡的聚光肆无忌惮地呼啸而过，偶尔使得骑行在路边的自行车突然会颤抖起来。每逢同时，夜幕中就会传出一声怒吼，哇靠！开那么快干吗？想撞死老子呀！妈的，给我爆胎！哈哈哈，听不出是谁在吼，是谁在笑。其中不敢大意，全神贯注地盯着前方的路面。他是近视眼，而且近得不轻，他一点也吼不出笑不出来。英山地处大别山南麓，鄂皖边陲。它以万山磅礴，控引江淮而成为鄂东门户，素有“鄂皖咽喉，江淮要塞”之称。今天，其中终于凭着一股韧劲和不屈的意志刺皖咽穿鄂喉，于漆黑之夜悄然跨进这个湖北东门户。夜色中，前面已然灯火闪烁，两旁的明亮的路灯犹如一排整齐的航灯一样指示着前进的方向。晚8点30分，他们一行四人依次进入英山县城。码表显示109.5公里。一家餐馆坐落在路边的一排修车铺中间，修车铺大都已经打烊了，只亮着一盏灯在门前，人们在灯下闲聊或打牌。餐馆内亮着好几盏灯，突显着明亮。其中他们直接朝明亮处骑去，他们的肚子早就饿急了。停车进店，五十多岁老板热情地迎了上来，哦！来，来，坐。还是骑车的呀！干什么的？从哪里过来的呀？老板微笑着问。我们是敌后武工队的，刚从岳西过来。哈哈哈，头上包着头套的豁大大声回答道，有好吃的吗？有！有！哈哈哈，老板也仰天大笑。豁大很快点好了菜。老板随手将菜单递给正从厨房出来的老板娘道，呵呵，鬼子进村了，要快点哟！店堂里又传出众人的欢快的笑声。其中2012年8月29日16：23有趣的广告语

、（鄂）英山—武汉新洲（2012.4.22多云130.73公里）清晨5点左右，隔壁的男房客就开始喧哗，旁若无人般大声打手机，这种无节奏、没旋律、听不懂的高分贝咮语音量实在使人无法再睡，迫使其中和晔青早早起床收拾东西。洗漱后，俩人将车搬下楼。豁大与王雍已整装待发，四人一同离开了旅店。晨风吹拂，空气新鲜。东方一线霞光已悄然射进了路旁一棵棵刚刚破枝露嫩的梧桐新叶丛中，湛蓝的天空下，远远望去，使人有一种万物更新初萌的感觉。四人一扫早起的瞌睡阴霾，精神振作地迎着曙光朝前骑去。骑不多远。路边一小餐店炊烟袅袅，勤劳的店主已经备好了丰盛早点，其中等四人或许就是这家小店今天最早的一批客人了。炒面、稀饭、包子。四人吃饱又另购了不少，着实让憨厚的店主笑逐颜开，吆喝应答，手脚麻利地前后忙碌着。今天的目的地是武汉新洲区，路程约134公里，任务不轻。早餐后匆匆上路，沿318国道西进。路况不错，一路平坦的阳光大道。四人中，豁大总是首当其冲，一马当先。他的骑车轮胎是公路胎，本身就比山地胎要跑得快。加之其年轻气壮，浑圆结实的翘臀下长着两粗壮结实的大腿，蹬起车来扭腰摆胯脚力迸发，总有使不完的劲，一路奋勇向前。王雍是豁大的发小，此人沉默寡言，骑车很有腔势，端坐车身，上身基本不动。两腿有力而匀速向前，从容不迫，极富耐力，即使狂风暴雨中亦然如此。他见豁大骑车有时也会轻声笑噱道，这个豁大骑车的样子也实在太难看了，浑身扭！不过，速度倒蛮快的。杭州的晔青长着一张娃娃脸，27岁看上去只有23岁左右，像个在校大学生。他呼其中为大叔，小伙子为人谦和，乐于助人。对户外骑车运动自有一番认识，对修车技术也颇有心得。骑车胆子也很大，上坡时慢档匀速很有章法，下坡时放闸高速勇往直前。其中在他那里学到不少户外骑车的常识以及修车技术。比如上坡时的骑技，如何合理运用快慢档调节以及注意事项。晔青在骑途过程中不时的指出其中的问并予以纠正。使得其中在以后的青藏高原爬坡骑行中避免了许多认识上的谬误，得到了及时正确的实际锻练，从而为顺利抵达拉萨较为夯实了体能及技术上的基础。为此，其中由衷地感谢和喜欢这位热心的年轻人。中午时分，他们一行四人坐在公路旁小憩吃午饭。不知不觉一个多小时悄然而过，四周无人，唯有路边高耸的白桦树一直默默地在聆听着他们的说笑谈天。也许这是周围的树木草丛首次听闻骑车人在此无聊而开心的话语了。饭后继续前进，途中碰到一群当地中年以上的男女骑友。当他们得知其中等四人是由上海骑往西藏时皆不由钦羡激动起来，皆表示要向他们学习。纷纷仔细询问一路来的骑行状况，热情地问候以及慷慨馈赠饮水。并且询问有什么需要帮助的，他们一定尽力而为，这着实让其中等四人非常感动不已！他们中的一位中年骑友还为其中检查了骑车并处理了一个调节变速的隐患问。最后，大家互致平安，合影留念。真可谓天下骑友是一家呀！在这个人欲、物欲横流的当下，人们为学习，为工作，为生计而四处奔波忙碌的时候，其所展现的精神状态是那么的紧张和自我。人群熙攘，纷纷扰扰。其中不乏尔虞我诈，争斗进取。人类在创造进步文明的同时也在滋生极度自私的土壤，而当人们远离了所谓文明社会回归大自然时所体现出的一种精神面貌却又是最本质的，最轻松的，最惬意的，也是最善意、最令人向往的。看来人是一种多么矛盾体的物种呀！其虽拥有高智商的思维系统，却也是完全被人类自己所创造的环境所左右。可见创新一种什么样事物环境终是人类最艰难的任务。绿色与黄色是环境的两大最终色彩，这是大自然的赋予。而拥有什么样的色彩环境取决于人类自己。其中一边穿行于碧绿的田野旁，树林间。一边在湛蓝的天空下遐想沉思着。无垠跳跃的遐思犹如爱因斯坦的相对论可以超越时空，遗忘时间。仿佛使得自己的骑行速度于不知不觉中飞速起来。呵呵，这也是其中在漫长的骑行旅途中最惬意、最享受的一件事。下午6点多，一行四人抵达武汉新洲区的外围，骑行130.73公里。在城郊他们找到一家旅店。房两床50元，住下不表。晚饭在店旁一家川人饭店进餐，三餐一汤，AA制，每人11块钱。呵呵，吃饱喝足，不错！仅此而已。其中2012年10月6日 12：33 D9、武汉新洲——仙桃市敦厚村（2012.4.23多云转大雨145公里）网上有不少骑友说在武汉找路很困惑，常常找不到318国道，不知路在何方。其中为此也做了充分的准备，仔细研究了地图并做了详细的记录。但这都只是纸上谈兵，况且现在城市发展很快，老路消失，新路诞生，这些变化甚至连当地人有时也云里雾里。所以，其中一般还是将准备的东西只做参考，遇到不明之处主要还是用老办法，张嘴问路，二询定线。而豁达、王雍他们则心笃气沉，毫不担忧。手持平板电脑一杨曰，放心！没有问，我有电脑地图指路，你就跟着我们走就是了。呵呵，其中原本还想和他们一起研究一下路线的，结果昨晚还是以吹牛告终。既然有高科技术指路，其中自然也就惰性萌发，跟着走就是了。就像当兵一样跟着队伍走，反正队伍有领队。一早出发，沿318国道进入武汉。道路很宽敞，渐渐的似乎又有回到大都市的感觉。他们一行四人快速骑行，身旁的树木也快速后移，默默地向他们行着注目礼。骑着，骑着。其中发现318国道的路碑已然不见，前方路牌指示的是S111（省道111）了。其中不由地转头问王雍，是这条道吗？王默默地点下头，他吐字不多，一字，一音，是。沿省道111骑进了市区，大都市的氛围重新展现在眼前。大路，小道纵横交错；大、小车辆车水马龙；骑车、人群行色匆匆。此时，给予其中的第一印象的既无繁荣之景，也无华丽之感。更多的是噪杂而乱哄哄的错觉。或许这跟这座城市处于发展的新旺时期有关。拆旧建新，架桥铺路，高架高速，轨道地铁，这些都日新月异地改变着这座城市面貌。其中东张西望，观景察人。内心暗思道，但愿人与城市美丽和谐。这样才不负于今日的轰轰烈烈。午饭后，不知不觉中骑至一高架桥下，王雍突然说，路错了。急打电话叫回冲在最前面的豁达，豁达、王雍及烨青三人争执了起来。他们仨都有GPS，看电脑，查手机，各有理由。其中一旁望野眼，呵呵，他塌天不管！反正一线领队有三人。理论了半天，一致决定上高架过桥。说实在的，其中至今不知这座横跨长江的大桥叫什么桥来着。至桥中央，旁有亭阁，四人不由驻足玩耍，瞭望江面，水鸟翱翔，驳舸争流。一阵阵春风吹来，实令人心旷神怡。突然，不知是什么样的景致引发豁达竟伫立栅栏，退裤拔根，冲天一吼，朝着辽阔的江面飙水一线。呵呵，这或许也是一种观景高潮，无忌豪迈的表现吧。不过，但愿此举不会发生在楼宇里，否则大水冲了龙王庙，自家人不识自家人就麻烦了！过桥后骑行不久，便又上高架路段，这里应该是武汉的三环高架路。沿路缓上，越骑越高，往下看，行人车辆如蚁。其中似乎有些恐高，身旁飞驰的车轮不断，呼啸而去。他小心谨慎，不敢快速，悠着点慢慢骑吧！他这样告诫自己。而豁达等三人渐行渐远，直至不见了踪影。这段高架路很长，大约有30多公里，路窄车多，直行不转。其中把注意力集中于路面以及行车位置（尽量靠里）。终于渐渐下行骑入地面公路了。高度紧绷的神经稍稍放松许多，其中长长吐了口气。这是他从上海骑到武汉首次在如此高、如此长、如此窄、车辆又如此多的高架路段上骑行。说实在的，的确具有相当危险性的。但是，令他怎么也没想到的是，他冲向地面浑身轻松地往前骑了不久，前方指示路牌显示此路段是107国道。哇靠！他一下子头就大了。怎么回事？难道高架上要拐弯的吗？我怎么没注意呢？此时，手机响起，烨青来电询问到哪里了？其中无奈告知他走错道了，下到了107国道上去了。烨青告诉他下高架前第一个弯道下就是318国道，他们在那里道口等他。其中也管不了那么多了，立马原路返回高架，逆向而上。好在路途不长，也无交警看守。在弯道处他看见路牌指示3**大此下，他不由恼怒起来，想想自己也真是够蠢的！路牌指示清楚，自己竟会路过无睹，神经也不至于如此紧张吧！又不是在逃亡。同烨青等会合后继续沿318国道前行，也就是沿着东风大道向西，基本上同宜黄高速平行而走。此时，时间已是下午时分。渐渐地远离了武汉市区，又踏上了田野旁树林间的乡间公路上。放眼望去，天地旷阔，畎亩纵横。4月下旬应该是春播时节，却不见耕种农夫身影。其中不懂稼穑之道，直觉现在的农村真是清闲的很呀！难道现在不是农忙时节？骑间休息的时候，其中向家在农村的豁达请教。豁达不屑一顾道：“现在还有谁去种地呀！你看这些地都撂荒了”。其中顺着他手指的前方看，确有地里长着一片片芦草的。“现在农民种地都赚不了钱。”豁达又道，“只能把田地包给专业户耕种，只有这些人有本事赚钱。”其中不解，他听得迷惑：“新闻说粮食年年增产，是不是粮食太多了，农民才赚不了钱？”“***！粮食增产，粮价还涨！”豁达闻之气鼓鼓道。“走吧，尽说这些没用的干嘛！你们又不是农业经济专家。”烨青起身推车催促道，“现在什么都涨，粮食怎么会不涨？这和增产没关系。”接近下午4点的时候，天突然变脸了。乌云翻滚，时而电闪雷鸣，天色越来越暗。其中他们刚穿上雨衣，豆大的雨滴就噼里啪啦地打在身上了。公路两旁都是片片田野，公路两边皆是碗口粗的小树。稀疏的枝叶根本遮挡不住来势凶猛的大雨，顷刻间就将大地万物冲淋个通透。此刻，狂风也来助威。肆虐的风裹夹着雨水在天地间纵横扫荡，卷起阵阵白色的雨雾冲着骑车人扑面而来。其中等四人无处躲雨，也来不及躲雨。他们只能硬着头皮在狂风暴雨中骑行，隐没于白茫茫雨水中，接受这大自然突然赋予他们的特别洗礼。豁达依然冲在最前，烨青紧随其后，其中亦紧跟在王雍身后。尽管天空电闪雷鸣，狂风怒吼，暴雨如注。但路上的大小车辆似乎毫不理会，照样风驰电掣。尤其是大卡车飞驰而过时，那裹挟着巨大的雨雾暗藏一鼓强大的吸引力似乎要将所经过的一切都带走。好几次其中都感觉到人与骑车似乎要被卡车带过去，时时不免有些惶恐起来。然而，风雨中。其中看见王雍依然骑姿未变，身如磐石，腿似钢轴，有力而稳健得蹬踏着。大有不管风吹雨打，胜似闲庭信步之势。不得不令其中大为钦佩！见英雄学英雄，其中不由也精神振作，暗暗气沉丹田，紧握车把，镇定如常地骑行起来。下午五点半多，王雍和其中一前一后骑至距离仙桃市不远的敦厚村，码表显示行程145公里。天色已晚，二人决定投宿客栈。但不知骑在前面的豁达与烨青在何处，电话联系，没想到他俩却落在了身后。烨青途中不幸扎胎，正在修理。等他俩赶到已经六点多了，尽管乡村客栈条件简陋，但终是一处躲雨安身之处。四人共居一室，吃饭洗漱，早早就睡下了。屋外不停地传来男女同唱的当地戏曲的歌声。黑暗中，烨青说，不知这戏曲要唱到几点才结束？豁达道，不会停的，店老板不是说了吗，这是为死了人的家里祭祀而唱的，要唱一星期呢。我靠！！烨青脱口而出。其中顿悟，哦！原来这就是所谓的傩戏了。夜幕中，四人渐渐地终于在嘹亮的傩戏唱腔声里沉沉睡去。对于来自远方的他们来说这出傩戏是驱邪还是纳福，呵呵，不得而知。其中2012年10月7日

There are many like-minded asking me about it. I now present this thread to briefly tell everybody about my journey.The starting point of this traverse was from the highest peak of the western part of the Tibetan plateau, Jieshan Daban, and the day was April 20, 2010.I was heading eastward passing Bungdag Co, Yanghu Co, Rola Co, and Kangzhagri Mountain, which crossed over the desolate region from west to east. The journey continued northward to enter the unpopulated area of Altun Mountains, through Hoh Xil Mountains, Kunlun Mountains, Whale lake, ..., finally met some people by the Aqqikkol Hu and then arrived in Huatugou by vehicle three days later and that day was July 5. It had been 77 days in total. I had been all alone 74 days after leaving Jieshan Daban until arriving inAqqikkol Hu, which was about 1400km and about four months.[The Great Chang Tang] In Tibetan, "Chang Tang" means northern empty wilderness while narrowly, means unpopulated region in northern part of Tibet. However, it actually indiCATes all of the no man's land in northern. The great Chang Tang includes desolate places in Northern Tibet, Hoh Xil, Alun Mountains, and Kunlun Mountains, which are interconnected to form the unique and super empty wilderness in the world. Only because Hoh Xil is the most known name, most people just think this vast land is equivalent to Hoh Xil. In reality, Hoh Xil is only a small piece of the Great Chang Tang both administratively and geologically. The Great Chang Tang, the last land to chase your freedom and dream.The route that I traversed ForeplayI arrived in Tibet in the early March, a couple of troubles bothered me. The brand new plug got its positive and negative wrongly connected; the rivets of my rucksack eASIly got broken from now and again; and a multi-functional charger got damaged and so on. Riding my bike to Ngari for warming up of this journey, lost my rucksack but later got it back; lost my camera bag and got it back later again, and finally lost a big bicycle pannier in the street of Gyangze town under the eyes of police, including clothes, solar panel and so on.Without much choice, I returned to Lhasa to adjust all the stuff I would need in the wilderness. Then I begged some luck by going to Nyingchi to enjoy the blossoms of peach trees and to take a hot spring bath. I even had the privilege to enjoy time with ten girls in the hot spring. I felt my bad luck had all gone and then returned to Lhasa again to prepare going to Ngari. I did not expect that I was cheated on by some hustler and lost some money and delayed my schedule for a week. I had to find a car myself quickly to Nagri. However, I lost the tool for fast-parting my rear wheel on my way to Nagri, where was a remote area in Tibet and nowhere to buy the tool. Even if there was one in Lhasa it would take at least ten days for a special delivery service. I was lucky that my mate Duola asked a driver to bring the tool for me from Lhasa. I thought there should be no more nightmare like this but the nozzle of my brand new multi-fuel stove was broken. The next day I tried everywhere to weld them back together. The first three shops could not do the welding for copper. The fourth one said they could do it but could not guarantee a sUCCess. The engineer said it would be ten Chinese yuans if it was a success. I agreed. Just in seconds, my nozzle became crap in a flash of lightening. I was so upset. Again, Duola helped me by bringing her own MSR oil stove and Dingding's sleeping bag to Nagri. That was already April 16 and I did not have much time to waste. The following day I found a vehicle heading to Jieshan Daban.The sand storm over Yarlung Zangbo RiverA lonely peach tree blossoming in Yarlung Zangbo Grand CanyonNatural hot spring in wild, me singing and drinking (photo by a friend of mine) Day 1(April 20), 16km, Camping 5192mIt was a truck with a full load of iron wastes, arriving in Jieshan Daban at 6'o clock in the morning. It was still night and extremely cold and dark. Driver was not bothered to pop his head out of the driving cab. I climbed up on the top of the iron wastes, taking my bicycle down. In a hurry, I punched my old water bag. Fortunately I had another MSR water bag given by a friend of mine otherwise I would definitely fail without even starting my journey. For the first time for me to set up the brand new tent in strong, cold winds. It would be impossible to do so if the tent was not a whole piece. Extremely cold outside, about -15C, might be lower than that, I put my head into the sleeping bag but was nearly suffocated to death, honestly. The smell of Dingding's sleeping bag was, lol, so extraordinary. I woke up around 11 o'clock. There were still strong winds outside so that I had to use my bodyweight to keep the tent in place. At the time when I just started to cook and eat, four patrolling soldiers approached me. To their surprise someone, in this season, camped in Jieshan Daban. I was so nervous and afraid they were the people to block my journey because I was caught and deported from the desolate land last year. Luckily the four soldiers did not know my destination and were very kind to me. After they left, I immediately packed my stuff and pushed my bike into the depths of the unpopulated area just in case anything unexpected happened.The bike was very heavy due to the provisions and hard to control. There was even a quite small hill that I had to remove my bike panniers to get over it. This really struck me because this happened even the path was still the hardship one at the moment and I could not imagine what I would do once I entered the uncertain, endless wilderness. Until now I had not met anyone, even the nomadic pastoralists. I remembered there were quite a few of them roaming at the edge of the northern Tibetan plateau last year. All of these indicated it was not the good pasture season in such low temperature and strong winds. Around 16km there was a sheep cote, where I passed it last year, east of Lungmu Co. I was exhausted at this point so that I decided to camp in here and to rest my head. After arranging tent everything I went out to look for the wetland discovered by Duola and Liumeng last year. I was determined to find it.There were many hot springs in the wetland which were underground water with a constant temperature. The wetland therefore became an ideal habitat for some fishes and weeds under such harsh weather, which was the very unique land feature of terrain in this over 5200m highland.Perpetual snow in the valley blown to corn shape by strong windsThis wetland was discovered by Duola and Liumeng. The workers at a nearby mine did not know it and I too missed it last yearUnderground water with a constant temperature, an ideal habitat for some fishes and weeds under such icy weather 感谢大伙儿支持和加分，不一一回复了。特别感谢多啦，希望能有机会一起喝酒吃肉。 Day 2 (April 21), 0km, Camping5192mBlustering gale all night, up and down like ocean waves. The next day rather than continuing to travel, I stayed inside the sheep cote, hesitating and pondering over. Indeed, there were so many problems before this journey;I did not have sufficient physical preparation;the load had already reached its limitation; I still coughed a lot;the weather was so extreme and cold. All in all, I did not think this journey was well prepared and I did not have confidence in completing this journey mentally and physically. To do, or not to do, it was the question. Similarly I did not have confidence in my facilities, not knowing whether all of them would work functionally or not. The fact was one of the rivets got broken again and the front rack came loose. In the afternoon, I replaced all the rivets of the panniers with screws I had prepared before. This was an excellent job I had done which gave me no further troubles throughout my whole journey. I also re-adjusted the front rack. However I did not think it would definitely all right because I did not have a tool to do it. When the darkness descended,I made up my mind to continue my journey, which, of course, was not beyond any imagination. Orchid-like weedsSmall springs everywhere, clear and chillyA thin layer of ice covering the fresh spring water The sheep cote, it was the door under the sleeping bag, which was in the same place as last year, everything looked like yesterdayThe wetland at duskLungmu Co at dusk. You could hear the gigantic sound of wind if the picture had a sound Day 3 (April 22), 52.4km, Camping 5145mGot up in the morning, could not put everything into the bags. Without much choice I had to throw away three portions of tsampa, elbow pads, and crampons. Following the road of the lead-zinicmine I found the side path to enter the wilderness, which was on the riverbed and very hard to see. I missed this side path last year so that I had to take a short cut into the wilderness directly then. That was why I had taken extra care to find the side path. The following journey was to get over a big hill, which lay 5275m above sea level and was the highest point of my whole journey. Around 2 o'clock in the afternoon, I passed the side path leading to Orba Co and started a journey which was complete strange to me. I ate a piece of pilot breads, which was frozen like rocks so that I had to use my spade to crush it. At 6 o'clock in the evening, I had pushed plus rode my bicycle for about 32 km. I reckoned I should have been able to double this if I did no carry such heavy load. The wind became stronger and stronger. I opened the parasail kits and tested it. The result was far beyond what I expected. With the aid of the strong wind I was just like flying over the wilderness. After 8 o'clock in the evening, I started to observe the water Source and to get ready to camp. Map showed there were successive springs along the path and assembled to puddles. But I had overestimated the water source here in this land and in this season there were endless wilderness inside the valley, where I could not see a single drop of water. As it became darker and darker, I felt a little bit nervous which resulted in three spokes of the parasail broken and became a useless rubbish. Anyway, it helped me to move forward 20km more which benefited me a lot later on. When time approached 9.30 pm, it was almost completely dark. I had to lie my bike on the ground and went on to try to find water on the north side of the valley. This was a wide and flat sandy land, where I could not see any ditches there and further was complete darkness. I returned to get my GPS to look up the contours and found the south part of the valley was closer to a hill so I took the way. Finally I found a piece of ice in a ditch. I smashed about 20litre of ice. The ice was quite shallow scattered with sheep poo. On my way back, my eyes were hurt by strong winds, which got me a couple of days to recover. It was nearly 23 o'clock after I set up the tent. It also took about 40 mins to melt the ice. I was so tired and my appetite was completely spoiled. I then had a little bit of milk. I had never expected thing would go like this, it was so distressing. Streams along the path, ice everywhereThe river flew into Matou Hu, in whose north part there was a satellite lake, a wonderful ice-skating court It took 40mins to melt the ice in midnight Day 4 (April 23), 31km, Camping 5028mA cloudy day with gusts. From now and again, hails chased me from behind. Sunny spell. Heavy sandy land made me have to push my bike. At 3pm, I arrived at Luxing Hu, where there was a house made of clay. This was the last permanent building of my journey. Last year, Duola and Liumeng once lived in this house for three days without meeting anybody. It seemed it was the same but the truck parking in front of the house made me worry about. I went to the sheep cote first to check over, where there were only a few lambs following me everywhere I went later on. This made me feel warm in my heart. I observed farther places using my binoculars but could not see any people or sheeps. After making sure there were no people around I opened the locked door using a screwdriver. The living room was very clean. There were two boxes of beverages on the ground and a string of cured lamb legs hanging over in the interior room. A pot of water was on the top of the stove, lukewarm, which indicated the host must be not far away from his home. I filled up my water bag and left the house. I also put the screws back to the door in order not to leave any trace of my visiting. I then took a spanner from the toolbox of the truck, which gave me great help for the rest of the journey.I left the house as quickly as possible. After last year's experience, the nomadic pastoralists were the last people I wanted to meet. A few hundred meters away from the house, the vehicle traces were fading fast. Even downhill, I had to push rather than to ride because of the heavy loose sand. From the route point of view, only after Luxing Hu it was the real unpopulated land. After many days, I thought of the lamb legs from time to time. It was pity that I then had plenty of provisions and the bike was too heavy to carry anything more. Continue to melt the ice under the morning sunshine, all of the sheep poo had been removed carefullyCamping site, the little hill over there was the place where I got the ice last nightThe house by the Luxing Hu, empty, the last permanent building I saw throughout my journeyDay 5 (April 24), 19.8km, Camping 4951mSet off at 10.30 in the morning, the weather was similar to yesterday. Probably this road was the high plain or somewhere the wind passed so that it was so windy. The average wind speed was degree 6 but could reach degree 9 in the blick of an eye. The road was still full of sand and very heavy to walk on it. My eyes became worse under such harsh weather. About three o'clock in the afternoon, I saw something in my right, looked like antenna. I went closer to see what it was and found out it was an iron tower (the triangulation station). In 1970s, a joint team from Chinese three military regiments entered this area doing research. They have left a lot of triangulation stations and benchmarks, which I had the priviledge to see them today.At dusk, I approached to a spring by the Bungdag Co, which flew into the frozon lake. The sand and soil, brought by the strong wind, scattered on the surface of the ice all over the lake. There were so many cracks around the icey surface of the lake. I geussed it must be caused by the springs under the water rather than by melted ice. In the west of the Bungdag Co was the side path leading to Keriya Pass, where a SUV could reach directly. I had looked out any vehicle Tracks but failed. The cloudy sky started to snow. I set up the tent comfortably because I knew that I was safe having such a sweet spring beside me.Triangulation station erected by scientists from the joint research team on Chang Tang of three military regiments in 1971[size=+0]The gap between water and ice in Bungdag Co, I guessed there must be some springs under the lakeThe storm just above the ground, a chaotic darkness[size=+0]Icy Bungdag Co,one of the four biggest lakes in Northern Tibet, wild ducks flying over this vastness and lonenessSnowing at any time, should not happen so frequently like this in this seasonDay 6 (April 25), 4.3km, Camping 5002mWeathering landforms everywhere around this area. Spongy volcanic rocks could be found easily. I pushed my bike turning around a small hill, seeing a big river, the Yinshui He, flowing from Orba Co into Bungdag Co, which I had been to its upstream last year. It was also a passage for animal migration. The downstream of the river was extremely wide and broad. The thickess of the ice layer could reach one meter with the main stem in the middle course of the river, very deep. There were a few springs along the river, sweet and clear.I only went forward a little bit more than 4km but I had walked more than 20km for finding my way. It was not possible to cross the main stem, let alone the north bank of Bungdad Co. What I could only do was to try to find a shallow place to cross. But the southern area was a even larger piece of wetland and forced the road turn towards west. I spent a couple of hours but failed to find a good point to cross the river. In the afternoon, I decided to follow the edge of the wetland. When I reached the hill foot, the wetland finally disappeared. Around this area, there were clearly volcanic feature of terrain and I even found traces of pasturing and cairns made from volcanic rock.Here was the last pasturing trace I found throughout my journey, I guessed it was a summer pasture area. After this, there was no clear sign of human activities in this vast wilderness. I had been looking for my ways until it was dark. I made up my mind where to go TOMOrrow. The terrain here looked like Yardang landforms, as well as volcanic landforms The Yinshui He river from Orba CoSprings scattered all over the river bank, painted green by lovely algaeThe river was very deep. The mixture of green and amber colour showed the sand and mud carried by the melted iceThick layer of ice, sunken surface caused by strong gustsThe south course of the Yinshui He, countless small streams. To the right was the wetlandLooking for ways in the east, a trace of pasturing and the cairn made from spongy volcanic rocksMy camp, opposite to the hillDay 7 (April 26), 11km, Camping 5009mI moved forward to the direction I found yesterday, turning around the wetland and walking toward east. At 2pm, I was blocked by the zigzag Yinshui He again and I had no choice but to cross it. The river was about 700m wide, covered by ice which appeared very different. The hanging ice, the folding ice, the piling-up ice, the icy puddle, and the sleet were everywhere along the river bank. Having noticed all of these, I reckoned the river would be receding at dusk, which was why there were so many different shapes and forms of ice. I put my slipper on, going into the main stream of the river. I found there were at least three different courses of the river, the thickness of the surface ice varied and the river water reached above my knees. I sighed there would be no way back once I crossed this river. There are many ways in one's life too, you can only take it once and you will no long have the courage to repeat it.I pushed the bike crossing the river. Some of the ice was a bit soft, jamming the tyres so that I had to use my feet to break them first. Some of the ice was a bit thick but with half-melted underneath, sticking the the bike completely, some of the ice was half-water half-ice with a sandy riverbed, which was really hard to pass. I had to remove all of the panniers at the last stage of the crossing. I spent the whole four hours to cross the river, my legs got many bloody cuts. At 6pm, the surface ice was almost disappeared completely, the river level rapidly rising to a chaotic status. I thought if I hesitated a little bit at that time, I could not have the courage to cross this river under such circumstances. The river bank was unimaginably sandy and was quite steep. I had to unloaded the panniers again to reach the top of the bank. By the time of sunset, the weather became exceptionally good. The sunlight from the descending sun, the blue sky, the faint moon, .... I liked such a colorful and peaceful Chang Tang and very much enjoyed my camp and myself bathed in such beautiful colour.The ice like this was very thin and suspended, far away from the main stemHard surface with half-melted underneath, the soft sand at the botton was most scaryThe ice like this could easily jam the wheels, hard to get it outI had to unload the panniersChaotic water and terrible hails turned up in no timeThe Chang Tang at the moment liked it used to be,a mixture of cold and warm tones under the golden setting sun Day 8 (April 27), 14.6km, Camping 5112mLast night, I forgot to bring in the odometer, which was out of order due to the coldness in midnight. Since then I used GPS to check the mileage. The digital thermometer was no longer working. I had to use mercury thermometer to collect data. Night temperatures were basically between –15℃—–20℃ while the temperature inside my tent was about –10℃. The advantage of the integrated tent was that it limited the ventilation so to keep warm inside. However, it got clearly disadvantage of heavy condensation and dew. Every morning, there was plenty of frost inside the tent so that I had to put my hood on First Before fully getting dressed. The winds in Chang Tang finally became consistent with the pattern I had researched the other day no or very tiny wind in the morning, strong wind started after 2pm, and then at around 8pm its strength was reduced again. The accuracy of this prediction was about 80%.The road was very bad today. I walked whole afternoon in an ancient riverbed and it was so difficult that I had to use all of my strengths to move a small step forward and then to stop to breath, slower than a snail. After five hours' struggling, my eyes got wet when I saw the grassy river bank. Finally! The nightmare was over.Cold and clear morningHeavy morning condensation in the interior, a lot of frost to clearSuch dawning sunlight indicated a cloudy day ahead Day 9 (April 28), 18km, 5072mIn the morning I entered a range of sandy roads which were so terrible. The solar panel specially designed for GPS got short circuited. After checking it was found to be the diode got damaged. Luckily I got a replacement. Because the GPS was exclusively supplied by a solar panel so that it was no longer a problem for the power supplement of GPS. In a period of 70 days, I did replace the battery once, which saved me a lot of alkaline batteries. I did have another solar panel of 5.4 W which was used specifically for 7.5V Camera, DV and other digital facilities. Unlike water, I had never been short of power.At 7pm in the evening, I arrived at Pur Co. The surface of this lake was very odd the ice by the river bank rose and the river bank was broken, I reckoned that was due to the strong winds. The ice there was mingled with something yellow, could be the stain of alkali. There were many wild yaks on the other side of the lake. There could be two brown bears but I could not be for certain. On the east side of the lake, there was a peninsula leading to the centre of the lake. I camped just opposite to the peninsula. At night , I smashed the ice to get drinking water, which tasted alkali. For the first time I cooked the cereals, which was brought completely by accident. This was just because I found there was a little bit of extra space when I was in Nagri packing the stuff for this journey so that I bought two packs of cereals. It tasted disgusting, probably there was too much alkali in the water. I threw away half of it. Later I realised that probably I subconsciously felt that the provisions was so heavy. I would rather make it lighter at any cost.Dry all my stuff in the morning sun, a routine matterA faint dusk in Pur CoThe river bank pushed up by ice and opened like zipper by gustsThe pushed up surface of the iceThe place where I got my drinking water, a thin layer of ice behind the ablation corns The moment just before sun set, glittering Pur Co, nothing was the same差点儿没找到俺自己的帖子，原来变色了。多谢各位鼓励。 Day 10 (April 29), 16km, Camping 5141mIn the morning, I walked around the north bank of the Pur Co， where it were continuous ups and downs sprinkled with light yellow sprouts across the sparse grassland. The wild yaks clustered into small groups. All of a sudden, there was a group of five of them running towards me, blowing a huge cloud of dust with the power of thunderbolts,I believed that anyone who did not know the characters of the wild yaks must be frightened to death under such circumstances. The fact was the wild yaks in groups never injured people. Rushing to you just to show you its territory. When they approached people at certain distance, they would turn sharply and run away, and then stopped somewhere high to stare at you. You can not imagine that the wild yaks were very cautious animals compared with its almost one ton of weight. Their first reaction, when meeting people, was to raise their tails, the front hooves rubbing against the ground, the horns pointing forward, the eyes redden, and the long body hair shaking, all of which showed their determination to fight.This was the warning sign that you should retreat. However, you should realise that this was only a gesture that they were afraid of you and wanted to scare you away. The thing was that if you were not afraid of them and moved forward, they would run away in no time. There were only some mad yaks attacking people, which was really rare to happen. In Chang Tang, an experienced driver know that it is very dangerous to pass directly from two or three lonely wild yaks. They always tried to avoid confronting them directly. If this was not possible, they would lit a cigarette, smoking, to wait until the yaks walked away themselves. This was because the wild yaks really could attack vehicles, which was not completely rumors. I once asked them why I had not been attacked. They told me that because my bike was so small they would not be bothered to attack it. My own experience was that approaching a wild yak very slowly, do not look into its eyes, and ignored what it was doing. As long as it moved forward a little bit, just stop and give the yaks a little bit of time to think. Because if you forced the yak, it could be themost dangerous animal in the world and nothing could stop them killing. Even a gunshot could not kill it but only left a small hole in its skin. In the past, the nomads living near this land would use yaks' skin as chopping board which was very much endurable. At noon, I lost my balacLAVA, which was brand new and I had never used it once. I could not be bothered to go back tofind it. This resulted in that I had to have my fleece hat day and night in the rest of my journey, which did not provide fully protection from the sun in the plateau. But somehow I was all right, perhaps because my skin is similar to those of yaks, lol. At around half past one, I found a deserted Jeep, upside down. I felt it could be there for years and it could be the vehicle of someillegal HUNTERs. Nowadays, we have wildlife conservation reserves in Chang Tang and the animals here are well protected. However, some people kills the wild yaks to sell them as the domestic yak's meat. In general, it is worth 10,000 Chinese yuans for a single wild yak. Therefore many people take the risk to make money. They often enter the unpopulated areas to hunt and their activities can reach 200 km in diameter. This is why the wild yaks in the deep wilderness are less afraid of people than thoseat the boundaries of the Chang Tang region.There once happened that a wild yak mother revenged its baby's murder in the Altun mountains. Its horns pierced the killer's chest and held his body over its head for more than ten days, which was very touching.Around 3pm, I walked out of the Pur basin. The next point was Hong Shan Daban and then it was the Yueya Hu by the Toze Gangri. At this time I found a vehicle track from south to north. I checked over but could not find the way where they had gone. I took my map, GPS, and compass, climbing up a small hill to estimate the location of Hong Shan Daban. The mountain was very round and it was hard to find the mountain pass. After determining the location of the Daban, I moved straightforward. When I passed a messy grassland, I saw something that I was reluctant to see more than hundreds of wild yaks' head scattered all over, which was definitely the scene of the illegal hunting. After that it was a very long ancient river bed with soft sand slowly rising until the foot of the mountain.There are some spines on the surface of the tongues of wild yaks, which are used by nomads in this area as combs. They use them from their teens to the time when their hair becomes silver.The deserted Jeep, could be left by illegal hunters years agoThe slaughtered wild yaks with the wheel size heads. Some of the skulls were chopped into half. Why was that? Could be taken away for making combs?My camp at the foot of the Daban underthe lingering golden rays of the setting sun. Tomorrow's weather must be wonderful, I reckoned Day 11(April 30)， 20.4km, Camping 5120mThe surface of the road leading to Hong Shan Daban was very hard, most of them were small rocks, sort of gravels, plus a quite long downhill slope, I pushed my bike more than 20km for the first time after Luxing Hu. The mountain pass was quite flat, just like a broad ridge, it was 5256m above the sea level. Upon arriving at the pass, Toze Gangri of 6356m was in my sight clearly, very much round and there was no back bone like normal snow covered mountains. Most of the snow mountains in Chang Tang looked like this probably it was due to the geological movements. There were quite a few chirus or Tibetan antelopes in the valley but I was not interested in this kind of animals anymore after I witnessed a large scale of migration of such animals last year elsewhere.The herbivorous animals here are very quick to reach its original size of the population, such as wild yaks, chirus, Tibetan gazelle, pika, and marmot. When you go into the depths of the Chang Tang, you could hardly be surpised by the sudden appearance of the chirus because they are so common in here. At this time of year, the chirus have already male-female parted. You could see many pregnant female chirus but hardly see any males. According to recent research, Zonag Co is not the only lake for breeding. There are at least four of them in the whole Chang Tang. Zonag Co, Tuzi Hu, Heishi Beihu, and another lake I can not remember. I think there must be more than four of them and most of the populations do not migrant long way like most people used to think. They generally migrant from south to north between Central Mountains and Kunlun Mountains.The chirus looks very timid but are very curious about outside world. They are not really afraid of people, particularly in the depth of the Chang Tang. The nearest distance we can approach is about 30m. They just stare at you calmly and think who you are and why you move so slow. They would run in front of you. Look like they are afraid of you but the fact is they are playing with you. A man's own character shapes his fortune. This is of course suit for animals too. The chirus are the typical one. They have a super speed and a pair of sharp antlers. If they are crazy, three of them work together could easily kill a wolf. But as you might have known, their antlers are just for fighting to mate with females.Down the Daban there was a very steep and straight road, I tried to ride the bicycle but ended up with falling over. The front rack came loose and one of the pannier flew into valley. The foot of the mountain was the Yueya Hu covered by ice, which was alake full of heavy metal elements. Along the lake bank there were many stark rocks very much weathered, lining up just like castles or houses. This made me stop to investigate what they were from time to time, I did understand they were just rocks though but they were so real like the figures of real people. On of them even made me hide in a ditch, observing them again and again using my binoculars. There were also many black volcanic rocks. All in all, the features of this area were really unusual.Passed over the Yueya Hu, it was an endless ancient lake bed. What my GPS showed was this area was a big lake like tentacles. I looked around, it was endless wilderness without a piece of ice and a drop of water. Roughly, I estimated this lake bed was about 1200 square meters. I had to tell you that Chang Tang was a place where there was no high-resolution map. The marks in the map often were some kind of memory. Just like this ancient lake bed under my feet, may be it was full of water a few years ago. Who knows. Pushing the bike in such an endless lake bed was very easy to get lost. My mind was in a chaotic status too.The migration of the animals, photo taken last year The road rising up to the Daban, full of gravels, very hard, ideal for pushing your bikeThe Yueya Hu gazed at by the round and smooth Toze Gangri. At a glimpse, could you tell which was mountain, which was cloud?Ancient lake bed. The white stains were the alkali, look like ice. About wildlife (part 1)Declaration Personal experience for reference onlyDangerous wild animals and their threats to human beings are a ever-LASTING subject for those backpackers travelling in the wild.In Chang Tang, for example, there are two kinds of deadly animals, one is wolves and the other is brawn bears. As substitutes, wild yaks and crows might be dangerous to you in some circumstances that I will come back to this a little bit later on. As for how to protect yourself against these dangerous animals, I think the primary point is you do not try to hurt them because the emotions of human and animals are same instinctively. [Wolves]Throughout my journey, I met wolves a total of seven times, in which I confronted them five times. As you might have known that wolves have become more and more solitary animals, it is very rare they live in a large group nowadays. Please allow me off the point a little bit and talk about the ecological problems in Chang Tang. The problem is now not the decrease of the number of the chirus but the imbalance of the whole food chain, more specifically, the number of the animals on the higher trophic levels of the food chain has not yet reached its ideal level which results in this kind of imbalance. Particularly, the pikas and the marmots who have lost their predators rapidly expanse which results in the desertification of Chang Tang. As early as the middle of last century, wolves were the dominant predators in the vast wilderness. They became a threat not only to other preys but also nomads pasturing in this land. Therefore, the then government called on people to cull back the population of the wolves in Chang Tang, which resulted in the current situation directly. The last official record about wolves attacking humans was around 1970s, which happened in Bamaoqiongzong. A team of secientists was surrounded by a group of wolves and they had to shoot them using guns. Of course, at present in Chang Tang, wolves are absolutely lonely.In this traverse, the first time I encountered a pair of wolves, one of them staying in front of me pretending to attack me while the other staying behind me. This is the standard attacking strategy of wolves. First, you should not be nervous which can be easily detected by the predators. Second, you should not retreat even an inch because this means you are the prey rather than the predator. Do not make any large movement, of course you could take a picture if you feel safe to do so. You must look into its eyes for a few minutes or even half an hour. When the wolves can not work out who you are and consider you are not posing any danger to them, then they will leave. You should remember that wolves in this land do not lack of food and it is much easy for them to catch a pika than a human. Even if being hungry, they would evaluate how easy to get you done, What you need to do is to show them that you are not interested in them and you are not afraid of them at all, let alone to show your ID card to them. As for the wolves family, really, I have not heard for ages. If you really have an encounter with them and they have no other choice, then it definitely depends on your forture. In fact, for so many year, it has been very rare to happen that wolves kill human. But the rumours are still there, in particular, the road connecting Xinjiang and Tibet.The nearest encounter with a wolf throughout my journey, no conflict at all[Brown Bears]Brown bears are real dangerous animals to human. Every year there are some accidents happened in some regions of Xinjiang on the north side of Kunkun Mountains and steppes in Northern Tibet. More than that the bears could attack your house, smash your windows, and eat your sheep. Therefore, in Northern Tibet some local councils give subsidies to the pastorarists for compensating the losses due to the bears because they are not allow to fight back and kill the bears except their lives are in great danger. Once there was a nomad taught me a method to protect yourself from bears. He told me to pick up a stick to feed the bear and the bear thinks the stick is your hand which tastes disgusting. So the bear would leave. It was so funny but the reality is to find a stick in this vast wilderness is just like you win the lottery.Bears are omonivorous animal who are generally not interested in human flesh. You can find that in most of accidents, the bears did not eat any of the human flesh rather they just smashed them for kind of fun that we could not understand. For the reason why bears kill human, one explanation is the conflict between human and wildlife in this extreme ecological environment. The nomads invade the habitats of the bears, which results in these conflicts. On the other hand, it might be because bears have quite high IQ so that they think it is much easy to kill a sheep in the cote rather than to kill a pika in the wild.I have met bears five times in my traverse, in two cases we were very close to each other. I had even walked with one of them for quite a while, just like we had a date for a walk. The fact is it is not that terrible like you might imagine. The same rules for dealing with wolves apply to bears. Never provoke dangerous animals. A bear can run at a speed of 40km/h, do you think you can compete this in a highland 5,000m above sea level?However, there is a situation where it is really dangerous, that is the encounter. It is not easy to control your instinctive reaction to the external dangers. Last year once I turned around a hill, there was a bear just in front of me. The bear of course was frightened by me with its front legs holding up, waving in the air and roaring. At that time I sat on the ground, ignoring it. The bear then left in a few minutes. Chang Tang is a vast land so that this is not that easy to happen. But if it does happen, really only God can bless you.The nearest encounter with a bear throughout my journey. This bear disappeared in a herd of wild yaks, which I had tried hard to spot, really weird About wildlife (part 2)Declaration personal experience for reference only.[Wild Yaks]I have talked about quite a few, like in the post of Day10. I will no longer talk about it.This was the funniest encounter with a solitary wild yak, who did not warn me. If I sat down, it sat down too. If I moved forward, it stopped. Could not imagine what it was thinking about.[Crows]Crows are dangerous only when you fall unconscious in the wilderness. Of course they will be the first to taste your flesh in that case. Unlike their cousinsliving in urban areas, the crows in Chang Tang have a larger body like eagles. When they fly over your head, you could feel like it is a piece of cloud. They are scavengers but like fresh meat too. It once happened that a baby was killed by crows relentlessly, let alone the lambs got killed by them. Once a nomad asked me for fireworks to scare the crows away. (They are sacred birds not to be killed by human)It is easy to defend yourself against crows, that is to keep fighting, never fall in the wilderness.A short break attracted the crows. Of course, they were miscalculating this time, photo taken last year[Strategies Adopted]At the time when I met the four soldiers in Jieshan Daban, they said there were many dangerous animals in the Northern Tibet and asked me if I had brought a shotgun. I think if they knew that I would enter Chang Tang they would definitely check if I really have a shotgun. The so-called defence facilities I brought with me were the fireworks and pepper spray. I had never used them. The fireworks were ruined and thrown away when I crossed a river and I had never opened the pepper spray. I even had never thought about this when camping in the night. The reason was I did not feel the needs. During the day time whenever I met any animals I had never touched the knife I had brought. I did not have anything to defend myself when I walked out to investigate the route. The Chang Tang is really a vast area so as to be very easy to detect anything strange.By the way, you'd better to avoid mating season's animals because even tamed rabbits could be aggressive in mating season.The thing is even if you have a gun, it is not very much helpful when bears attack you. Therefore, your attitude is most important.I can tell you something. Dogs are more dangerous than these wild animals. I had been chased by Tibetan dogs, pounced on by dogs in mating season, also besieged by a group of dogs. I really feel it is more useful to know how to defend a dog.Declaration again The above experience is from Chang Tang only. Of course, the more you prepared, the better. Day 12 (May 1), 23.8km, Camping 5117mToday was May 1 -- the Labour Day, I had been walking in some lake area marked in the map but clearly dried up. The lake basin was flat and hard so that I even pushed my bike more than 20km. Let it be the special treat for my May Day. After midday it became cloudy with growing winds. Since the Yueya Hu that I passed yesterday, there were no big lakes until Yanghu Co (My route would be between Jianshui Hu and Bairab Co), there was even no light alkaline water to drink so I had to pay extra attention not to miss any possible drinking water supply to fill up my water bag. There were a few very small lakes but all were alkaline puddles which was very shallow, whose depth was no more than the length of a half-finger. These puddles were covered with a hard shell of the mixture of salt and ice which smelled stinking and decaying when getting closer, must be toxic water I supposed. On the shore of this type of small lakes it was muddy soil and very hard to get closer.There was no sign of tundra at all.It was almost half past six when I found some snow corns in a ditch, which was the only drinking water supply of the day. There was a thin layer of melted ice on the surface of the ground near the snow corn, which was very hard to collect and was contaminated by the alkali. The snow corn was the yet melted thick snow, which was shaped like a corn by wind. The snow was quite hard and dry,porous like ice. I crushed a few snow corns, putting them into the water bag.They would be my drinking water tonight. These snow corns were the only one in today's wilderness, I reckoned the reason why they were not melted like others was the soil underneath contained large amount of ice blocks which acted as a freezer.Very strong gale in the night, it was hard to bear the sound of the vibration of the tent. Small single tent was good in the sense that it would not be blown away as long as you stayed inside. But you had to be very careful to set up the tent. I once did not pay much attention when doing so, the tent was blown away by winds, and rolling over like a Giant lantern ... I ran after it, got it back, and was exhausted. In general, it is not possible to fix the tent completely using tent pegs because they were not very much effective like large tents. It was snowing around 23 o'clock, the winds were howling from north,then the falling snow flakes landed on my tent quietly, I finally felt at peace and fell asleep. The flat ancient lake basin, assisting me walking more than 20kmSmall lake en route, toxic waterSnow corns, the only drinking water supply today Day 13 (May 2), 0km, Camping 5117mWaking up in the morning and opening the tent, the heavy snow outside must be sent by the God to force me have a break for the May Day. After lying in for a while, getting up and walking on the snowy ground out I went to have a look around. As first sight there were a herd of chirus. They were plainly to be spotted because they looked like a clear black straight line in the while snow. I returned to get my camera and then followed them to take some pictures. But they were very much alert and kept a quite long distance from me. I felt they were a group of pregnant females, instinctively protecting themselves from any potential harm. I was no longer short of water, the snow gave me a precious supply of drinking water. The problem was that they were very petrol consuming. I tool 8.6 litre of petrol and the oil stove was Duola's MSR. The pot was of 1.5 litre, mainly for boiling water. After several days' experiments, I found that the liquid water needed 16mins and 14-15mins to boil in the morning and evening, respectively. For ice, it would take 35-40mins while for snow it took 45-50mins. Melting snow was a very time and petrol consuming process so if I had a choice between snow and light alkaline water, most of time I would go with the latter. Lying inside the tent, listening to musics,I smoked a cigarette while gazing at the more and more chirus around me. Because it was very cold I had been wearing my shoes all the time. Now I just put my bare feet under the warm sun for some fresh air. I found three cuts in my hands and one in my sole. The cuts were about 4cm in length, looked terrible but it was actually all right really. Half of my toes were injured by to much walking, quite painful. I fetched my medicine bag and found I only got four patches of plasters, a serious mistake. One of the cuts in my hand had never been cured until I was out of this desolate land so as to feel like this finger would drop from my hand at any time. The others quickly recovered in a few days then new cuts appeared elsewhere. This process occurred periodically. I felt that it was somewhat related to the cold, dry weather and the lack of vitamins. The snow rapidly disappeared, which is unique phenomenon in Chang Tang. Because of the low air humidity and the high radiation from the sun, the snow was evaporating very fast, much quicker than the melting speed. Owing to this, the ground was generally still dry after the snow disappeared. In most cases, it would be only 2/5 left in the afternoon around 2 to 3 o'clock and small patches of ground could be seen. It would be completely all right for walking the next day. On the third day there could be some snow left in somewhere the sunlight hard to reach. So generally it could give you three days of water supply after a heavy snow like this. One of the pannier was broken, the most expensive one from deuter series, supposed to be waterproof. I will come back to it at some point later. Everything was covered by snow, no way out Lying in the middle of Chang Tang, listening to Tian Zhen's songs, and smoking Baisha cigarettes, what else can you ask for? The pregnant female chirus in migration, probably heading to Heishi Beihu to give birth([]
