Cycling around Taiwan

I should have finished the tour last year, but then my knee hurt.
It's about time that they start planning the route if there be a touring in 2005.

One of my friend actually consulted me about cycling around the island. But she was not willing to make an investment on equipment. Hmm, but you see, good equipments do help people reduce trouble faced.

Some people tend to use their guts instead of brain. That's not forbidden. But why make a journey painful when you can actually avoid it? They say hardship produces unforgettable memory, that's not what it looks to me.

I've always believed proper gadget is essential, especially when you are going to be out there and exposed to rain and dust. Same applies to mountaineering. Proper preparation will save your life, that's for sure.
