FIX GEAR COAST OF TAIWAN

Postby ktyse » Tue Jan 08, 2013 8:27 pm

Hi,

I am planning a ride round the island of Taiwan in August (2013).

I have done most the way to sydney from melb and melb to adelaide last year so understand what is required for endurance fixed gear cycling. see viewtopic.php?f=28&t=34447&start=25

I understand road and conditions will be different in Taiwan. Has any cycled the coast at all ? What are the hills like on coast. 8)

Also anyone that does long rides fixed in melbourne are you keen to catch up for a ride. I can handle up to 150 km in one day max.

Hi ktyse,
This site is run by an Aussie in Taiwan, and may be of use to you.

The 80 years old Chairman and Founder of Giant bicycles did the loop with gears. He can do it, so can you on a fixed. He did have a Lexus luxury limo behind him though. ;)
