It was a good sleep last night I think because we were all so tired. We got our rain coats ready and are tracking our bags.
I had stocked up on more supplies in the form of energy bars and snacks for the road. We might not find a big mart like this one until the next city.
Some silver lining of the day - I double checked my tires and it looks like they held out through the night. I will buy a spare tube just in case at the next town. But let's hope it holds until then.
8:00 - Turns out no restaurants are open this early. So we settled for family mart food. Ramen, eggs, kimchi and rice. The start of a great day.
8:20 - Pulled into Dalseongbo for our first stamp of the day. Really we should have got this yesterday if not for my tire puncture.
10:10 - Pulled into the next stamp area - Ganjeong Goryeongbo. We pushed hard for this part We rode 25km in 1 hour and 20 minutes. My butt hurts and I can feel the joints of my knee hurting. I am reminding myself to put some ice on it as we stop for the night.
Also gave my mom a call to update her. :)
11:30 - Rest stop. We are on the putter edge of one of Daegu's suburbs. Since the last stop it has started to drizzle so we took out our rain costs. We look like the power ranger minus the pink and green ranger. If anyone asks - they were left behind :P
12:50 - found out Korean gas stations don't sell water or snacks the hard way. David says his ass is like a monkeys ass and wonseop's ass is black ........ My ass just hurts. No change in color - yet.
1:15 - Found some water source and 2 guys we keep passing and being passed by.
1:50 - Stamp and food times :) making really good progress 61km already and we still got afternoon and night :) things are looking up :)
2:40 - We head out towards Gumi which is 34km from this rest stop. Plan is to stop in Gumi for the night and take a good night of rest and head out again tomorrow early morning.
4:40 - Arrived at Gumi water festival. Lots of slides and pool. And it's only ₩6000 per person. But Wonseop is really against the idea. So we decided to just rest here for a while. The dickead at the front desk won't let us get water. Karma will get him. We are only 5km away from our final destination. FIGHTING!!!
Oh yea I had taken off my shirt because its so hot. And I'm getting the forefinger stares from the water festival goers.
5:22 - 4th stamp of the day. Feels good. As soon as we pull in it starts to rain. :) just waiting for the rain to stop so we can go to our next destination. We already covered 93km for today. But it might rain tomorrow so we are going to try to get some extra distance in just in case. Next stop is Nakdongbo which is 19km away.
7:30 - We arrived at Nakdanbo. It was still drizzling we when left the last rest stop so I put away my phone and didn't want to chance it crapping out on me. So that means no pictures for this leg of the trip. It started to really come down hard as we pulled into town. Luckily the first inn we pulled into was cheap and had a really nice grandmother who said she will do our laundry. 나이스!!!
I will spare you the pictures but Wonseop and David look like they been raped in the butt. Maybe it's because of my bike training or maybe it's because I'm tanned but my butt remains untapped :)
Luckily Wonseop had some hot and cold patches for our respective injuries on our legs. It feels good :)
Total distance travelled: 113
