Zhou Xiansheng, a 27-year-old young man from Xinyang City of Henan Province, has rode over 2,500 kilometers on the Qinghai-Tibet Highway, leaving nearly 1,500 kilometers forwardly. This summer, Zhou gave up his former job and has been riding from Chengdu to Tibet through the Sichuan-Tibet routes. "Tibet is an excellent place that can open people's mind. I have heard that there are altogether eight highways to Tibet and it is my dream to ride all over the eight routes," said Zhou.
