A 74-year-old cycling enthusiast has peddled over 600 kilometers during a five-day adventure from central China's Wuhan City to Nanjing City in east China's Jiangsu Province to thank the doctors who saved his life from COVID-19.

Fitness fanatic Huang Genben was hospitalized after falling ill with the coronavirus at the start of the year. After recovering, Huang said he was determined to pay tribute to the doctors who traveled from Nanjing to aid in epidemic-fighting efforts in Wuhan.
