At the top of 9, right at the junction where you turn left on 199, there’s a place you can take a break and fill up with water, if necessary. Doesn’t look especially welcoming, but seems to be cycling specific - loads of people stopping off there when I’ve been past.
The 199 is my favourite road in Taiwan (not that I’ve ridden all of them ). Lovely smooth surface most of the way, not too steep, nice and twisty. Just watch out for the odd clown coming round bends on the wrong side (usual stuff), but it was very quiet each time I’ve ridden it. Enjoy.
