My first bikepacking and solo. Biked from Taipei going south. It was so hot like 90F and hilly. Not used to elevation , I live in Florida. Day 1 and 2, I had to take the train to the hotel along with my bike since I ended up still biking after sunset. But I biked from Changhua to Puli on day 3, came in the hotel at around 8PM. Biked from Puli to Sun Moon lake on day 4, the lake is so pretty! Then met a new friend and we biked together on day 5 from the lake to Ershui Station. Taiwanese people are so nice. They tell their friends that I've been biking from Taipei and they're like proud families.
