China

By Mat Bester
Cresting an unnamed 4,600-metre pass in Sichuan, China. The view was worth the long climb, sharing the road with many yaks and the occasional vehicle.
Iceland

By Serkan Yildiz
During my month of cycling in Iceland, the highlight was always going to be the Highlands, with its vast, remote, and rugged landscape. Just days before my planned entry, most roads were still closed due to heavy rainfall the past weeks. There were many river crossings, tough weather, and incredible landscapes. In all, it was a very enjoyable week of adventure. In this photo is a nice campsite with a river close by, shelter from the wind, and a great view. It was the only day with sunny weather, so I tried to enjoy it fully!
Comunidad Valenciana, Spain

By Stefan Rohner
Finally leaving the “island” for some days again. Take the ferry from Eivissa to Denia, and three hours later, one is alone on the most beautiful rural roads of the Comunidad Valenciana. A long Easter weekend cycling traffic-free through beautiful nature, shining silver olive groves, and deep green almond tree fields. Not to miss the historic old villages one passes on the way.
