Bike Aways

Bike Aways Rides and other specialty tours in China, Bhutan, Nepal, Myanmar, Georgia, and Ethiopia Cycling is the most fun way to travel!

“Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness.” Mark Twain.

“It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them.” Hemingway. It gets you into the action and away from the tourists. Designed for NON hardcore riders, we use bicycles to get in the thick of it, rather than racing you from A to B at Tour de

France speed. Our epicentre is Hong Kong, so Bikeaways trips are mostly designed for people living in China who want an action-packed city escape. ECO is our Philosophy

No flags, no mega phones … off the beaten track, heritage destinations and forgotten villages where we can spread our business are some of the criteria in designing our trips. Fostering an appreciation of heritage and supporting sustainable traditions become more real with the access a bike gives you to places off the map. For China city-based expats, these are refreshingly natural getaways that don’t burn excess fuel to get there – or get around.

- Xiamen, our base for the Fujian tulou rides is now just four hours on a bullet train from Shenzhen or a one hour flight from Hong Kong; two hours from Shanghai; three from Beijing. The Kaiping Diaolou in Guangdong are even closer to Hong Kong. Yangshuo – one of the best cycling destinations in the world is also a comfortable overnight sleeper train from the border town of Shenzhen right next to Hong Kong. We stay in accommodation with personality – traditional or family run where possible. Food and tea are an important part of the experience.

Magang goose: We eat it at several of the lunch and dinners on our Kaiping Diaolou Bike Ride.
Or do we. According to this article the real deal is being bred out by hybridisation.... until these guys who are QR coding your lunch.

For more than a century, the Magang goose has been the taste of homecoming for Kaiping’s diaspora. PostMag meets the second-generation brother-and-sister restaurateurs who are digitising that inheritance – tracking the bird from their own farm to the banquet table.

Please someone who plays piano come join us on our Kaiping Watchtowers Gold Mountain ride. This restaurant in a Diaolou serves an outstanding roast goose and delicious pesci dishes - just a few old timey piano songs missing to make this 1025 all over again.
