Big cycling milestone today - a metric century! (100 km) This is the first time I've rode this far all in one shot since April 2008, when I rode the John B. Kelley Haleiwa Metric Century Ride in Hawaii. Here was today's route, a simple out-and-back south from Kaohsiung:
I managed to get a few pics along the way, the theme being the ever-present (but not always clearly visible) mountain range that forms the spine of Taiwan along its eastern flank. At some point I will be riding long enough to reach them, although today was not that day.
Looking at the map now, it appears that highway 198, which I passed today in Fangliao, would take me up into the mountains visible in the last set of photos. I'll have to give that one a try on another ride!
