Book excerpt: The Sky Is My Ceiling: Biking China's Border is Yu Juanjuan's personal account of her bike journey around China's border from 1987 to 1989 and in the process changed Chinese women's history. It took her two years to travel over 40,000 kilometers, (25,000 miles) to complete this trip, the distance being equivalent to the circumference of the earth. Starting from Beijing with four team members, three dropped out early, leaving her with only one-team member. For the majority of the 22 month trip she faced most of the diverse challenges ? the demanding terrain, the reaction from natives of cities and villages she visited, the wildly fluctuating weather, the need for funding, and those arising from the fact that she was a young woman ? alone. Since then, nobody has been able to duplicate her feat, man or woman. The strength of this remarkable woman's story? a product of the intersection of Communist and modern China ? result in a compelling richly illustrated book documenting the enormity of her success. Richly illustrated with over 150 images.
