South Korea Day 12: Riding Gumi to Hyeongpung-myeon

Today’s ride was lovely, there was almost no wind and I felt like I was gliding the whole way through.

The paths were super smooth and there were plenty of cyclists enjoying the perfect weekend weather.

It was much warmer than usual and I took a few extra breaks to get some shade and talk to other cyclists. I felt like I was back in the zone, after the setbacks from earlier in the week, I regained my momentum and it felt great. I received some well wishes and a Japanese cyclist gave me a little chocolate treat during my break.

I made it to my accommodation at 2.30, about 4 hours earlier than usual and just kicked back to enjoy some TV and free wifi. For dinner, I accidentally ordered an insane amount of bulgogi, but managed to finish it all anyway, although I felt like I was going to be full for days. I guess I’ll have plenty of energy for tomorrow’s ride.
