My Ibex is lying in a small town next to Longchan, people were so friendly to keep my bike, until i can fetch it. I went on to see te solar eclipse, and hope, I can manage things later.

Azub is great! They answered my email and told me three possibilities what I can do, including sending a new frame to Beijing. As this would take too much time (well, two weeks...) and my holidays would finish three and a half weeks later, I hope I can find a company that could repair my bike according to Infos provided by azub. As I still don't know how to proceed (about getting back my bike and large parts of my luggage...) I can't tell you more right now.

for intrested ones: the part, where the rear wheel is attached to the frame, broke (you are right, Gerd :)

Well, I already know, I will miss this way of independent travelling, as I am now waiting for the train, that leaves at 18.20. so nearly 6 hours of waiting, but lots to do, so no worry.

so far for my bike.
