This time I headed out toward the Ara Waterway in Incheon. It’s a much longer distance to ride than Jeollyuri.

Gyeyang Bridge

It’s not an easy place to get to unless you’re on a bike..

The West Sea Lock

This is the view when you reach the end of the Ara Waterway course.

The end of the waterway

But.. the official bike path ends here, (there’s a convenience store right next to it, so a lot of riders were taking a break there.) and the real end comes a bit further on. There didn’t seem to be any signpost, but some people were heading that way on their bikes, so I followed them.

Starting point of the Four Rivers cross-country bike path

This is the starting point..

Certification center

This is where you get your stamp. Someday my turn to take it on will come, right? But I still don’t have the courage to ride out on the road with the cars..

The park

The road to the airport on Yeongjongdo

On the way back

I rode pretty hard on the way out, but on the way back I took it slow and stopped to photograph the scenery.

The scenery

Since I was in Incheon that day, I swung by Bucheon too..

I even made it into downtown Incheon..

I nearly collapsed.. Anyway, I rested a bit and set off again.

Evening scene

Probably somewhere near Bucheon.. I’m pretty used to riding now, so whether it’s Incheon or Bucheon, I can get anywhere within about a 50 km radius..

Evening scene

I should get out to as many places as I can while I still have the stamina.
