I finally had a chance to go south this past weekend and it’s always a great pleasure to ride new roads and not knowing what to expect next.
We cycled up one of the New Taipei favorite spots, Bear Mountain. The road leading up from it via Sanxia was an eye opener. How does such a touristy spot have such horrible road conditions?!
I had an issue with my bike a few days ago and it’s in the shop for repair. Luckily, a friend was nice enough to lend me his extra. I brought my extra wheel set to put on the frame, but to my surprise, he had mid section aero wheels for me to “try”. Not sure if I should’ve been happy or sad to climb with aero wheels.
I hope to make it back south this upcoming weekend. One can only ride Yang Ming Shan so many times!
