As I mentioned in yesterday’s post, I went on a hunomous bike ride today. It was just a tad over 33km with the group, and another 12 for me to get to the starting point and back.

I started on the far left and went to the bike shop, just down the river 6km. This map below, if clicked, will take you to Google maps and you can zoom in and around my fair city. The Hyundai Factory is further down the mouth of the river on the right side. Zoom and see a few thousand cars portside.

First, we went up and down the Taewha river which is a mostly level paved bike path. At the last bridge before the harbor, we headed north across the bridge and towards the airport.  Still mostly level ground and we made good time.

At the last bridge before the harbor, we headed north across the bridge and towards the airport.  Still mostly level ground and we made good time. Then we headed west again – into the mountains. They aren’t terribly high – but they’re steep at times.  Two hours into the ride, we stopped in the mountains for “Oli gogi” or duck meat, grilled right at our table. Yum.  Then we didn’t another few ups, downs and arounds in the mountains before hitting the final descent to the bike shop along the Taewha river.

Between yesterday’s dragonboat runs and today’s ride, I’m sore all over.
