东南亚高强度环行巴厘岛,越南菲律宾等过

为艾滋行走公益骑行(60,100英里)




7月15号将从北京出发,途径上海-武汉-宜昌-长沙-南宁-越南-老挝-柬埔寨-泰国-缅甸-泰国-马来西亚-新加坡-印尼的三个小岛,最终在巴厘岛落地(9月份),总计9个国家几十座城市,全长15000公里。


虽然去过很多的地方,但还是第一次计划如此长时间和长距离的骑行。出发前的准备工作都是从自己之前的一点经验和从网上点滴学习过来的,非常忐忑。我们发现中国有非常多很好的户外网站和很多户外经验很足的朋友的分享,但是我们都看不懂中文。现在我们找了会中文的助理帮助我们,她以前在深圳参加过很多次磨坊的活动,所以告诉我们这是一个很棒的网站。我们有一个关于这个骑行的公众号“2crazy老外"全程直播行程,当然也会来这里和大家分享旅途和求救,欢迎有经验有兴趣的朋友来给我们一些意见


以下是我们的行程:




7月15号,今天从北京出发,挑战15000km。


超晚才到天津
今天Some of Dan's coworkers traveled to Tianjin this morning to get a little more time with us.
跟Thomas的同事们一起吃了个中饭。

Breaks and falls, and breaks…
一波三折的第一天

We may have mentioned before that we’re not the most diligent organizers. It’s not really for want of trying, so much asour pattern is to take on far too much, compliCATe the hell out of things,discover at the 11th hour that our designs just can’t be realized in the timewe have left, and go into a frenzy of makeshift contingency solutions.
之前的文章可能提到过,我们不是很勤奋的组织者。事实证明,我们想要尝试的模式太多,以至于超出了我们的极限,事情有点变得复杂化了。在我们出发后的第十一个小时,就已经意识到原计划不能按时完成了,之后我们便开始疯狂地寻找临时应急解决方案。

The dream was that we built trailers forour bikes, that niftily converted into a little mobile hut for us to sleep in.Such a beautiful dream. We awoke to reality three days before departure, whenour prototypes collapsed into a messy heap of expensive sheets of honeycombpolycarbonate and carbon fibre framing pipes.
起初,我们打算为我们俩的自行车造一个拖车,这个拖车可以灵活地转换成一个移动的小屋,这样我们晚上就可以在里面休息。这是一个多么美好的梦!可就在三天前,随着我们的原型拖车倒塌成一堆杂乱的蜂窝聚碳酸酯和碳纤维骨架管,我们的梦醒了。

The Wild West had The Lone Ranger to cometo the rescue. China has Taobao. Thousands of dollars and dozens of hourslater, we had front-mounting bicycle racks, panniers and a tent, all deliveredto our door. By 2am the morning of our departure everything was installed andready for the last few items of laundry to be dry enough to pack. Except thatthe load exceeded the weight-bearing capacity of the racks (25kg), so at 6.45amit was off to Walmart for rear racks. By the time our ceremonial farewellersarrived, we were almost ready. And managed to pedal away from our former homewithin half an hour of our scheduled 9am departure, despite a few minorbreakages (entailing a detour past another Walmart).
狂野的西部有独行侠前来救援,在中国有万能的淘宝。在花了数千美元并等待了几十个小时之后,我们收到了淘宝寄来的前置自行车架,车筐和一个帐篷。直到我们出发这天的凌晨2点,所有的东西才都安排好了,就差最后几件衣服干了之后打包。但由于负载超出了自行车架的承载量(25kg),所以在早上6:45我们又去沃尔玛买了后置车架。直到我们的送行仪式到来,我们才差不多算都准备好了。我们计划是上午9点出发,半个小时后我们离开了四合院,真正的踏上了这段15000km的骑行冒险。但路上有一段在修路,导致我们不得已又绕路经过了另一个沃尔玛。

Because they clearly haven't been wonderful enough, several members of Dan's team took the fast train to Tianjin this morning to have some lunch and see us off.  Their journey was probably shorter than the time we took to eat our lunch.
显然,Dan的一些团队成员还没有玩尽兴,所以今天早上他们特意坐高铁来到天津陪我们一起吃午饭,再顺便送我们一程。感觉他们从北京过来的时间可能比我们吃午饭的时间还要短。



Unfortunately, we had to dine and dash.  And by dine, I mean stuff ourselves full of the tasty meal they treated us to, and now Dan's dashing out an article for our marketing team...
他们准备了一顿丰盛的大餐招待我俩,但我们不得不快点吃完,因为Dan还要忙着为我们的市场团队写文章。


It is becoming increASIngly clear that we're starting too late in the day, and I suspect we won't make a city tonight that has a hotel registered to take foREIgners.  Guess we'll get to find out how camping works in China...
越来越意识到我们出发的确实太晚了,感觉今天到不了原计划的城市了,也就意味着我们肯定找不到可以登记外国护照的旅馆了。所以,我们今天晚上不得不探索如何在中国露营了……

After we dashed off to get some work done, we took to the roads once more - awful late in the day.  Turns out Dan's old colleagues rented a car so they could drive alongside us for a while.  Check out these cool photos the took/we took with them!
我们快速的处理了一些工作后,再一次上路了,很遗憾比原计划晚了一天。Dan的老同事们租了一辆车陪我们走了一段时间。看看拍的这些酷酷的合影照片。



Then, of course, there comes the camping.  We definitely didn't make the Huang Hua, where we were hoping to spend the night, and we didn't make it by a long shot.  Around 7:30 we realized the sun was fading, and so were we, so we started to search for a place to pitch the tent.
当然,接下来就是期待已久的露营了。其实我们本打算在黄骅找个旅馆睡一晚,事实上我们离黄骅还很远。大概下午7:30,太阳已经渐渐黯淡要落山了,我们俩也骑了一天累屁了,所以开始寻找搭帐篷的地方。

We found a place that looked great within minutes but, as it turns out, all that glitters isn't gold.  Who would have known that about 10 million mosquitoes would live next to a fish farm?
没几分钟我们就发现了一个看上去不错的地方,但是骑白马的不一定是王子,也可能是唐僧。谁会想到那个地方的旁边就是一个鱼池,成千上万的蚊子大军驻扎在那里。

It took us about 15 minutes to get the tent up, which we oh-so-expertly didn't even bother practicing with before we left Beijing and,like every camping expert, we poled and pegged the wrong things about 4 times each, until we each had mini-meltdowns from the 18 quadrillion mosquito bites we'd each gotten, you know, just like the experts.  
我们在开始骑行冒险之前竟然都没有尝试着搭一次帐篷,这多么可笑!我们花了十五分钟,来来回回搭了四次,直到我们每个人胳膊上被叮了18个包之后,帐篷终于搭好了。

So, we found out for sure peppermint oil works like a damn champ!Like, not only did it keep the mosquitoes from biting us but, with the door open, mosquitoes wouldn't come in the tent and the ones that were here left with a quickness.  
还好我们发现了驱蚊神器——薄荷油。它确实效果奇特,哪怕开着门,蚊子也不会进来,而且周围的蚊子都迅速逃离了。

With. A. Damn. Quickness...
这该死的蚊子终于都被驱散了。

Finally, as we were getting all tucked in for the night, and getting the air mattresses inflated, we started to hear some voices and see some flashlights.  They came around once, twice, and on the third time we were definitely sure they found us.
最终,当我们把所有的东西都收进帐篷,把气垫床充好气的时候,依稀听到一些说话声,还看到了一些手电筒光,晃了一次,两次,晃到第三次的时候,我确信我们被发现了。

Cause, you see dear reader, we are technically Trespassing, and intentionally scouted out a spot that offered the most cover from the road nearthe front of the tent and the path at the back (which is not saying much).  
其实,我们属于技术性地盘入侵,我们特意侦察地形,才选择了这个能为我们的帐篷提供庇护的地方,以避免我们的帐篷暴露在前后侧的小路上。(这里就不多说了)

Dan, in all his rock-solidness, climbed out of the tent ready to do battle with such words as "I'm sorry, I can't understand you.""Do you speak English?", and [in Chinese] "I don't speak Chinese" but the moment he poked his head out one of the three or four menwho had come to sniff us out just started repeating "mei shi, mei shi" which is good since one of the men was glowering, quite menacingly at Dan, and carrying a big stick.  
气氛确实有点紧张,丹一边说着
"I'm sorry, I can't understand you.(不好意思,我听不懂你们说什么。)"
"Do you speak English?(你们能说英语吗?)"
和一句汉语"我不会说中文”,一边打算爬出帐篷与他们沟通解释,当他把头伸出帐篷时,有一个人手里拿着一根棍子恶狠狠的瞪着丹,但这群人里有一个人看出了我们,然后就一直说“没事,没事,是误会”。还好是虚惊一场。

So, here we are on our first night roughing it.  Our skin looks like braille, the smell of peppermint lingers in the air, there was a bit of drama, and we got just another reminder of how kind and generous Chinese people really are.  
这就是我们第一晚露营的故事。我们的皮肤被蚊子咬的像坑坑洼洼的盲文,薄荷的气味萦绕在空气中,还有一些戏剧性,但我们深刻地认识到中国人真的很善良宽容。

Next time, though, we'll probably ask in advance.
下一次,我们会提前询问一下,虽然不想再有下一次。

Speaking of things we should ask in advance or, at least, know how to ask, what do you think?
说起这些我们应该提前询问的事情,或者我们至少应该提前知道怎么去询问。对此,你们有什么更好的建议吗?

What phrases should we know for getting our bikes repaired? What should we know when we ask someone if we can camp on their land? What else should we know?
我们可能需要学习一些基本的语言交流,比如修理自行车怎么说?我们如何询问某个人是否可以在他的土地上搭帐篷?还有其他我们需要知道的,希望得到你们的建议!

And, do you happen to know any camping spots on our route?PreFERAbly with fewer mosquitoes, but beggars can't be choosers.  
你是否碰巧知道我们路线上的任何一个露营点呢?最好没有那么多蚊子,也没有乞丐和我们抢地盘。欢迎随时推荐给我们!

今天我们做的最伟大的事就是实践了一把露营技巧。之前的文章提到过,我俩都是“咖啡瘾君子”,每天早上要是不喝一杯浓的热咖啡,这一天都过的不自在。别人是一天之计在于晨,我俩是一天之计在于“晨的咖啡”。要是早上不把咖啡喝了,连话我都不想说。出门在外只能用我的户外神器——ALOCS户外酒精炉子来煮咖啡,由于这个炉子用甲基酒精作为燃料,所以烧水就比在家的时候慢好多,好在今儿早上我们心情比较好,多等一会儿就多等一会儿吧。
