_ Bike Yunnan Adventures is well represented by local Chinese cyclists, all conversant in English, and all are able to guide you on a most memorable adventure. They were selected for their intimate knowledge of the area and the routes, along with an easy affability to interact with clients of many nationalities. Equally important to us is your safety, and for that all our guides are well practiced in keeping your bike in top condition while you are riding with us.  Here are a few photos of our team.

John Yang, founder of Bike Yunnan Adventures, was raised on a farm and began biking the rural roads of Yunnan Province when he was eight years old. As a teenager, John would ride his bicycle to a local brick plant where he delivered lunch for his father. The sense of freedom that cycling created for John at an early age instilled a lifetime passion for the sport.
Inspired by a grandfather who was a revered teacher in rural Yunnan, John attended an university in Sichuan. After attending college, John worked as a librarian which allowed his love of reading to continue flourishing. Later he became the manager of a hotel where he learned about the hospitality industry and came in contact with travellers from all over the world. John ultimately returned to his passion for bicycling and for six years operated bike tours in Yunnan for BikeChina, one of the first companies in China to offer great cycling options to westerners. His clients included not only people from China, but also from the United States, Canada, England, France, Switzerland, Australia, the Netherlands, Singapore and so on… Some of John's clients have bicycled all over the world, and have been a valuable resource for information as he launched Bike Yunnan Adventures. John truly enjoys showing people the back roads of China where the simplicity of life, and beautiful scenery, remain a peaceful and picturesque contrast to the hectic bustle of big cities, and his testimonials will certainly attest to that dedication.
