CHARLEE STRICKLAND

I love it here – the blue is so clear

Setting off with my bicycle and a good mood. It's a 2-hour mountain road trip to Yining. There's still some snow that hasn't completely melted from the ice sculptures, and it's a bit cold by the lake. 2. Dianjiangtai Started cycling around 12:00. The first stop was here for a meal and supplies, getting ready for the ride ahead. 3. Haixi Grassland The road was against the wind the whole time, with quite a few uphill climbs (but not too steep). 4. Swan Lake This stretch was calm, perfect for going all out and watching the swans. The swans will fly to Kazakhstan after a while. 5. Guozigou Bay Didn't cycle this part, felt a bit of a cold and didn't finish the whole lake, drove there instead. Remember to check the weather, supplies, and toilets before you set off – no worries, they're all available along the way. Sun protection, warmth, and windproofing are essential. Definitely bring cycling gloves, or you'll get sunburned. Everyone should cycle around Sayram Lake at least once in their life! Because it's like walking in heaven and among the clouds.
