niggles Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 A stray dog has completed a 1700km journey across China after joining a cycle race from Sichuan province to Tibet.The dog, nicknamed "Xiaosa", joined the cyclists after one of them gave him food.He ran with them for 20 days, covering up to 60km a day, and climbing 12 mountains.Cyclist Xiao Yong started a blog about Xiaosa's adventures, which had attracted around 40,000 fans by the end of the race.Yong now hopes to adopt Xiaosa.
