Rode to Jangseong Reservoir from Gwangju along the bike path. Then instead of returning the way I came, I jumped on Rt.898 southwards back to Gwangju. On the way back, I passed through a nice hard pack, bamboo grove. Oh, yeah, there's a mutha' of a climb, only to 400masl, but feck, in a short span, making for serious inclines, on Rt. 898. All in all, about 85km.
Bamboo grove gravelin'
Absolutely lovely spot in the middle of an river island connected by a causeway. Perfect spot for lunch
