Wei Xiaobo: The mountain postman

But it hasn't always been clear riding. In 2013, Wei Xiaobo fell into a deep crevasse while out on delivery due to brake failure, sending him tumbling and giving him a nasty knock to the head. Though he received a cerebral brain hemorrhage which deteriorated his health, he managed to recover and get back on his bike.

Wei has driven more than 300,000 kilometers and delivered more than 4 million packages in his 16 years.
