Register an account with Kraken.com and send the ripples to your deposit address. You can buy and sell ripples like any other crypto currency.  I believe Bitstamp does the same, but you need to wait for verification if you don't already have an account.

I can buy some of your XRP (assuming they are low volume) with XPM.

You can sell them inside your ripple wallet. There is an XRP/BTC market inside the wallet itself. Afterwards, you can send your bitcoins to any address you like from your ripple wallet.

bct38.com have been trading them since some time last year, now available in English.

You sell XRP for Yuan, then you need to use the Yuan (CNY) to buy Bitcoin. I got about $2000 for 70k I picked up last year in some giveaway on this forum.

the easiest way to sell your xrp for btc and then sending them to your bitcoin wallet.

1) use the trade feature in ripple to buy bitstamp.btc with your xrp. guide is here:  https://xrptalk.org/topic/1835-guide-to-currency-trading-on-the-ripple-network/ (https://xrptalk.org/topic/1835-guide-to-currency-trading-on-the-ripple-network/)

2) send your bitstamp.btc directly to your bitcoin wallet using the bitcoin bridge. guide for the bitcoin bridge here:  https://xrptalk.org/topic/1924-the-bitcoin-bridge-lets-ripple-users-make-payments-to-bitcoin-accounts/ (https://xrptalk.org/topic/1924-the-bitcoin-bridge-lets-ripple-users-make-payments-to-bitcoin-accounts/)

0.2% transfer fee applies.

it's easy. :)

everything you need is right within ripple. no need to go to other exchanges.
