  The article notes: "透過參賽機會體驗異地文化，並重拾對單車的一份熱誠與樂趣，可算是香港女子越野單車代表楊嘉華在「喜瑪拉雅山爬山單車賽」奪得亞軍之餘的額外收穫。該項於上月下旬一連三天在尼泊爾進行的爬山單車賽，圍繞著首都加德滿都的一帶積雪山脈進行。由於賽段極具挑戰性，故此吸引不少來自歐洲的頂尖好手參加。代表香港完成亞運不久的楊嘉華亦接受這項挑戰，成為報名參賽的唯一港隊成員"

  From Google Translate: "Experiencing a foreign culture through the competition and regaining a passion and joy for cycling are the extra gains for Hong Kong women's mountain bike representative Yeung Ka Wah after winning the runner-up in the "Himalayan Mountain Climb Cycling Race". The mountain climbing cycling race was held in Nepal for three consecutive days in late last month, around the snow-covered mountains in the capital Kathmandu. As the stage is very challenging, it attracts many top players from Europe to participate. Yeung Ka Wah, who recently completed the Asian Games on behalf of Hong Kong, also accepted the challenge and became the only member of the Hong Kong team to sign up for the competition"

  The article notes: "在三天的賽事中，楊嘉華與德國選手施町加爭持激烈，最後她分別取得兩次第二和一次第一，成功在總成績上勇奪亞軍。但令人最讚嘆的，還是楊嘉華在第三天賽事不慎鏟至泥濘滿布的坑洞而扭傷左手，而隨後面對著甚為傾斜的落山路段，她仍能憑驚人鬥志忍痛以一隻手做兩隻手的工作，而隨後面對著甚為傾斜的落山路段，她仍能憑驚人鬥志忍痛以一隻手做兩隻手的工作，更以不比平日慢的速度完成最後的一段廿公里賽事，技驚四座。"

  From Google Translate: "During the three-day competition, Yeung Ka Wah competed fiercely with German player Stingga. In the end, she won two second places and one first place respectively, successfully winning the runner-up in the overall score. But the most amazing thing is that Yang Jiahua accidentally shoveled into a muddy pothole on the third day of the race and sprained her left hand. Then, facing the very inclined downhill section, she was still able to endure the pain with one hand to do the work of two hands, and then faced the very inclined downhill section, she was still able to endure the pain with one hand to do the work of two hands, and completed the last 20 kilometers of the race at a speed no slower than usual, which amazed everyone."

• QPQ is done. Page was 5x'd recently enough and is long enough. WP:EARWIG finds copyvio unlikely. Trusting that the Google translation is accurate, the hooks check out. Both hooks are interesting, I think ALT1 is better because it explains why she used just one hand. This looks good! ArtemisiaGentileschiFan (talk) 16:15, 27 July 2025 (UTC)
