Jingzhou highway exploration prose

There are eight top cycling routes in Anhui province, including three in Huizhou. They are Changshibai route, Xidi route, Tachuan ancient village route in southern Anhui, Jixi Jingzhou highway and Hualang route. The first two routes, except Jingzhou Highway, were experienced during the National Day holiday the year before last.

Jingzhou Highway and Hualang Line are one of the three major Panshan highways in East China. This route includes two of them, criss-crossing Anhui and Zhejiang provinces, with endless mountains and beautiful scenery along the way.

One Friday in early February last year, 65438. In the afternoon, after I finished my work in Jixi, I quickly rode a small passbook along the X086 county road, passing through Longchuan and Fuling, and rushed to Gabon. On Saturday morning, I will ride Jingzhou Highway and Hualang Line with my friends. Who knows that it is too late to pass the site of Fuling Jixi water storage power station. It takes about half an hour to get to Hu's hometown by cycling in the dark. According to the owner of the roadside shop, friends had to find an inn to stay when they went home to climb the steep slope of Meiganling.

Hujia is a small mountain village. It used to be a township, but now it has been merged. In winter, the night in the mountain village is cold and silent. Facing a pot of hot pot, light a person and drink by yourself. I fell asleep after drinking a bottle of carved wine. Because I went to bed too early, I was not tired after riding that day. As a result, I woke up at three in the morning and couldn't sleep anymore. It was uncomfortable to stay up until 5 o'clock, so I got up, washed and had breakfast, and went out at a quarter to 6 o'clock.

It was dark outside, and I couldn't see anything except the sound of a mountain stream running by the roadside. Fortunately, the flashlight has been charged all night, and the front is still bright. After riding for more than 20 minutes, the mountains in the distance gradually appeared in outline, and then I vaguely saw the Panshan Highway in front of me. Is the Meiganling mentioned by the landlord coming soon? So I stopped to drink a few mouthfuls of hot water, adjusted my clothes and prepared to climb the mountain. Meiganling is not high, so it took no effort to reach the top of the slope, and a particularly clear road sign was erected by the roadside. This is a fork in the road, and there is a clearing similar to a square. Among them, a big stone named "Meiganling" has been erected at the intersection leading to Gabon. The legendary Jingzhou Highway X087 line starts from here.

Jingzhou Highway is the highest highway in Anhui Province, with the highest peak of Yunling at an altitude of 1.300 meters and the highest point of pavement at an altitude of1.654,38+0.800 meters. The long slope of Jingzhou Highway is about 18km from Gabon Township to Shanyunling Pass. Among them, X086 is about 2.5km, and after turning into X087, it reaches the gateway at15.5km.. There are 35 1 bend and 2 1 bend in the whole line. The top climbing intensity and scenery have made this top cycling route. Along the way, ancient villages, ancient houses, terraces, canyons, waterfalls, clouds and mountains are like a 30-kilometer long-axis landscape painting, which is intoxicating.

Unfortunately, the weather is not good. Riding less than 2 kilometers along X087 County Road, the terraced fields planted with rape on the roadside gradually disappeared into the dense fog. As the road rises, the fog becomes thicker and thicker. I can't see anything except the road more than ten meters in front of me and the street trees close to the roadside. Drops of water condensed by fog on the brim of a hat are like those on a bicycle faucet. Occasionally, cars meet and the lights of the cars are very close.

The fog all over the sky is always accompanied by the sound of running water in the mountain stream. Riding, the sound of running water suddenly turned into a thunderous roar. Looking in, there is a waterfall on the roadside, which turned out to be a mountain cloud canyon. So I parked my car on the side of the road, walked to the bottom of the waterfall and took some photos, and then continued to climb the mountain.

In the dense fog, I unconsciously passed the 1 bridge, the No.2 bridge and the Bijiafeng, and had a long rest at the monument on the X087 line 12 km, ready to rush to the pass in one breath. But I didn't ride far, and the beautiful scenery in front of me forced me to stop and watch. Clouds are blown by a gust of mountain wind, and the peaks are hidden in the sun, just like a fairyland, like a sea of clouds in Huangshan, which is spectacular.

At the monument of 15km, I saw the billboard of Jingzhou Township and thought there were still a few kilometers to go. Who knows that the billboard began to decline after walking a few hundred meters, did it pass the customs? Didn't the road book say that Jiapeng went to Shanyinglingguan 18 km? It turns out that the 0 km of X087 line starts from Meiganling, and it should be about 500 meters after passing 15 km. Originally, I planned to pay homage to the thirty-five migrant workers who sacrificed their lives to build roads at the pass, but I didn't expect to miss the opportunity because of a moment's negligence. Don't mention how hard it was.

Now, at the top of Shanyunling Mountain, in the direction of Jingzhou, about 80 meters away from the highway, there is a memorial to the victims paving the way.

Riding friends often say that going up the mountain is like saving money, and going down the mountain is like spending money. After climbing for more than two hours, I slipped down the mountain in less than half an hour. It's only after 9 o'clock in Jingzhou Township, and then you can walk about 3 kilometers to the famous Xiaojiuhua Scenic Scenic Area. After receiving the ticket, I saw several scenic spots along the highway. I was about to continue riding in the direction of the island city when I suddenly received a phone call from the company informing me that I would attend a meeting the next day. In desperation, I had to return to the original road and take the high-speed train from Jixi to Hefei at night, ending the exploration trip of Jingzhou Highway ahead of schedule.

Just after the Spring Festival this year, some riders have agreed to go to a friend's house to see rape blossoms in March and April, and ride the entire Jingzhou Highway and Hualang Line.
