Fengguizui attempt
The weather was absolutely beautiful yesterday so we just had to get out. Decided to try Fengguizui, although I had my doubts, and those doubts were reinforced after I had to get off the bike just to get up to the top of Jiannan Rd.
The Nanjing-Jilong Rd. intersection. This is where you get on the bridge to the other side of the Keelung River
Halfway up Five Finger Mountain I decided to call it quits. A year ago I made it to the top in 35 minutes without getting off the bike. Not a stellar time, but still. Now I made it halfway and then turned back. Oh, well, slowly getting there I guess. Don't want any more back injuries. I'll hit it again Sunday.
D in style
