I don’t have a cycling computer so I couldn’t tell you how much of that time was in the saddle versus standing around eating cashews and reapplying sunscreen.

Mark – Thanks a lot, it took me a couple tries to get an exposure I liked. I’m pretty happy with the results.

Michael – Shame we didn’t see each other on our trips. I found Xinshe absolutely gorgeous and can’t wait to do more exploring of the area.

Craig and Andrew – Thanks, too bad you didn’t come along!

We just missed each other. On Saturday I went up 136 but didn’t go over because I didn’t have time to go back through 21 and I hate 14 through Changhua. On Sunday Drew, Michael C, and I went up to Hsinshe and then went on the back roads south of the town and came out on 100. Lovely ride, but I forgot my camera.

Michael
