South Korea - 4 Rivers Cross-Country ride Seoul to Busan
I am not a hard-core serious bike-touring person like many in this group, but I'm sure there are some other newbies here too.
I recently returned from a 630km ride on the stunning 4 Rivers track in South Korea.
This was my first long and solo bike tour, done on a bit of a whim.
This is an amazing ride, full of stunning scenery, in a super-interesting and very safe country. The cycling infrastructure is world-class. 95% of the 630km route is dedicated cycleways following the 4 river valleys, but with some meaty hill climbs along the way.
I also made my first vlog to document it for myself, and share with others. I found it therapeutic to talk to my vlog like a companion in my solitude. It's very much my story of the ride, capturing how I reacted at the time, not an attempt to document practicalities - there are excellent videos that do that. There is also another video where I talk about the things that surprised me, filmed from the track.
