8:19 - We decide to get some breakfast (Dolsot Bimbibap) while David sleeps. He's probably been hit the hardest out of the three of us on this trip because he's using a mini folding bike which requires more energy.
10:17 - We left our motel and soon got our first stamp. From that point on it has been all downhill. Great start to a great day :)
11:32 - Quick water break. David and I switched bikes at the last stop cause David's bike is a pos and he is having ass failure.
12:00 - Arrive at Chungju Tangeumdae the second stamp of the day. We travelled 28km so far. But it feels like way less than that because it has even mostly downhill. Oh also we finished the Saejae bicycle path (새재자전거길). Next one is the blue path which is the Hangang bicycle path (한강종죽자전거길). This is the river that flows out from Seoul. Almost there baby.
1:33 - We stop for lunch. The day is burning hot. Cold noodles will do us good.
5:22 - Still riding. Taking minimal breaks. Ambitious goal for the day. Get to the outer edge of Seoul by tonight.
6:10 - Arrived at Gangcheonbo (강천보). 64km bikes since our lunch time. It feels like heaven right now because the rest stop has reclining chairs. Gona stop for dinner at the next stamp area which is 10km away and then keep going until Seoul. This way we can rest all day tomorrow!
7:20 - Arrival at Yeojubo (여주보) Easy 10km for a stamp. It almost feel undeserved. :P
8:11 - arrival at Yipobo (이포보). We got excited but are having trouble finding the stamp area. One of the many disadvantages of riding at night. Dinner soon once we get the stamp.
8:25 - We haven't found the stamp booth yet. But we decided to back track from some Tonkatsu (돈까스). Looks like this all night riding is happening. Seoul here we come!
10:18 - Arrival at Yangpyeong art museum. . Only 10 more km till the Paldang bridge. But damn it's scary to bike at night.
11:43 - Arrival at suburb of Seoul. Sinwon station (신원역). Taking a quick 15 minute break and then into Seoul center baby.
12:38 - Arrival at Neungnae station. There is a train shaped cafe here but unfortunately they are not open now. It probably looked really beautiful in the day time.
1:57 - Arrived in a town near Paldang bridge. It started to really pour at about 1am. So we decided it was better to stay the night than truck through the downpour.
Overall a great day. This was the most tiring and longest distance we have travelled in 1 day since the start of the trip.
Total distance travelled today: 141km.
Plan for tomorrow - sleep in and arrive at downtown Seoul around evening time.
