During her first days in China in the Xinjiang region, Françoise Denel, the dean of the Sun Trip, was severely tested: She was thrown on the ground by the terrible desert wind, she underwent numerous police checks. Françoise finally had to be transported to Turfan where the organization team asked her to take some rest. Surrounded by a lot of people she met on the spot, she was able to find a smile very quickly.
In a security concern, the organization team also forced her not to pursue her bike journey in this region of Xinjiang and in the Gobi Desert: She will pick up a truck tomorrow for a few hundred kilometers before continuing her adventure.
