    I'm currently in Hangzhou, and I have a road bike, and during the
    summer, I will often go for rides through the picturesque mountains of
    Xihu and sometimes climb the hill to the Longjing Tea Village. Has
    anyone here cycled in China before? Does anyone here have some good
    routes to share?

    Anne Mustoe, an elderly English woman, has cycled extensively all around the world,
    including China, mostly alone, and chronicles her travels in her very entertaining books.
    I can recommend them to all cyclists.
