Six of us took a van down to 內灣 east of Hsinchu 新竹. Bruce was plagued by a sticky rear cable the entire ride. Philip Left group at Baling 巴陵 opting to avoid riding through 三峽. Rode in chilly rain from Siling 四陵 to Qilan 棲蘭. The switch backs down to the east were also newly paved so oily. The cold rain and slippery road made the ride much longer. 122 km bike ride from Hsinchu 內灣 to Yilan 羅東, 內灣 - 宇老 - 巴陵 - 明池 - 羅東.
