Freeriding pure!!
The race is really special, because the landscape is so stunning, it looks like the Redbull Rampage in Utah. But it's in China. Racing in Guide, which is near Xining (Qinghai province) - China. So of course we did also some freeriding there ;-). It was amazing!!

         In the beginning of the year 2011, exactly during spring festival I was traveling to Anhui province to visit the famous village Hongcun 宏村. The village is also famous because scenes from the film Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon were filmed on location in Hongcun. Together with Xidi, the village became a Unesco World Heritage site in the year 2000. It was not at all a tourist site then, but nowadays it’s full of Tourists. The pictures I did with a middle format twin lens camera. Everything is manual, all on film roll. #10yearsinasia #2011 #hongcun #宏村 #anhui #china #asia #springfestival #travel #unesco #worldheritage #twinlens #middleformat #film #kodak #mesumvermaphotography
         Once again, my visa was running out and I had to go down south to Hong Kong 香港. The slow train from Nanjing to Shenzhen (南京 - 深圳西) took 25 hours (1728km) and from there I took the metro to Hong Kong. It was my first time to visit this city, and I knew for sometimes I will come back here, at least to extend my visa, as the magazine and photography gives me no working visa. Chungking Mansions 重慶大廈 was relatively cheap to stay, and I wanted also to see the bustling scene there. Cheap hotel rooms and Indian food I found there! It was great! Staying in Kowloon 九龍, it means also go almost everywhere in Hong Kong easily. The ten thousand Buddhas monastery 萬佛寺 was the first sightseeing place I went. Of course I seen the skyline of Hong Kong, which never gets bored! #10yearsinasia #2010 #hongkong #香港 #chungkingmansion #重慶大廈 #kowloon #九龍 #tenthousandbuddhasmonastery #萬佛寺 #skyline #tourist #mesumvermaphotography
         When I was racing my first Downhill Race in Nanjing back in 2009, I meet some other foreigner with the same interest like me. Trying to ride the bike down a mountain as fast as possible. Thomas from France was working at the Specialized Bike Store in Shanghai. He was organizing a 2 day downhill race event in Zhejiang province 浙江省 at Dongbaishan 东白山. Dongbaishan is located about 150km south of Hangzhou. A lot of riders where attending the race, even riders from Beijing they came so far south. It was really nice area, riding in the tea fields. But no time to have a closer look, only if you would crash. It was a really well organized event, thanks to Thomas, and I was even at the overall podium with the 4th place! #10yearsinasia #2010 #dongbaishan #东白山 #zhejiang #china #asia #downhill #mtb #race #teafields #wellnotmypictures #somebodydiditforme #mesumvermaphotography
         I was busy to get content for the online magazine I just started with a partner in India. A mountain bike magazine for India, Nepal and Buthan. We did some „Tricknology“ stuff, which means to show how to ride a bike in pictures and words. Matt did some pictures for me. I went also to some Chinese wedding, as I was invited. This one was the most traditional one! Lot’s of eating, drinking and smoking. #10yearsinasia #2010 #nanjing #南京市 #jiangsu #china #asia #tricknology #mtb #magazine #freerider #chinese #traditional #wedding #mesumvermaphotography
