(^24) Suanbo Hot Springs – Gumio Weir – 103 km
It rained all night, but by the time I woke, the weather had cleared,
and it had become one more pleasant day. The bike route ran
through small mountain hamlets where villagers were winnowing
outside their homes.
I usually prefer inexpensive accommodation and, consequently, often
spend the night in establishments where rooms are let by the hour,
for purposes other than sleeping. I’ve, thus, had my fair share of
oddly shaped beds. However, that night, the bed was round and
offered all the necessary personal care items.
Gumibo Weir - Dalseogyo Bridge – 108 km
I’m sure freedom means something different to everyone. I look at
freedom as living the life I want to live. As I departed, I knew this
was my freedom, at least for now. The ride featured incredible vistas
as the road stuck close to the river, past rural communities, old
temples, and lush farmlands.
By late afternoon, a grassy patch was the perfect place to pitch the
tent. Unfortunately, the site turned out to be the Millennium Plaza. As
a result, the entire area lit up at night, making one feel a bit like a
goldfish in a bowl.
