Along the way, there are difficulties such as heavy wind and sand, cold and lack of oxygen, changeable weather and insufficient supply. In addition, almost all sections are washboard roads and gravel roads, with steep slopes and landslides, so they are called "devil sections".

Except Kyaw Ba Pass, which is 3908 meters above sea level, the other passes are all above 4000 meters above sea level, among which Dongdashanyakou and Milla Shanyakou are above 5000 meters above sea level. The whole road is difficult and dangerous, and it is necessary to climb the mountain almost every two days, and to guard against geological disasters such as mudslides and landslides.

The best riding time: it is recommended to ride the Sichuan-Tibet line in late spring and early autumn for 25~30 days. Cycling preparation: there can be a period of intensive training before departure, including long-distance cycling.

Without these experiences, it's hard to imagine what it's like to climb some 2000-meter-above-sea-level passes and need to ride dozens of kilometers of uphill roads continuously. Besides physical fitness, you should know something about your bike. If it's a new car, it's best to run in for a while before going on the road. It is difficult to find a master who can really repair cars from Kangding to Bayi. It is best to master simple repair techniques such as tire repair in advance and bring necessary repair tools. Accommodation: Sichuan restaurants run by Sichuanese are the main places along the way, except for a small amount of chocolate, energy bars, peanuts and other food to supplement physical strength, there is no need to bring dry food.
