Round Taichung Ride - Preview

Map of Wednesday's planned ride


Wednesday - I have a rather ambitious challenge planned. Make a bike ride through each of Taichung's twenty-nine districts. I plan to set off at about 5:00 am and with an optional ride up to Dakeng (a decision that will be made once I reach Heping depending largely on the weather as if it is raining, I will have to lengthen my trip to get down from Xinshe) will total about 242 kilometers.



Here is the planned route with kilometer estimates. The route is subject to change.
