  • I head out east to a town called Sokcho to ride some of the best roads. I should've mentioned, the train I took leaves from Yongsan Station in Seoul. If you want to do something similar to what I did, I recommend basing yourself in a town called Inje instead. It would be quite a bit closer to the mountains.

    Keep on producing these videos 👍. I've been following since your Thailand and Taiwan videos, making me want to do the same one day.

    Drop those epic rides. 😎 I love enduro mountainbiking in the alps, but since i bought a gravelbike i love your bike videos. Next plan will be japan: tokyo to kyoto or vietnam: hanoi to ho chi minh city.. You inspire sir. Greetings from a dutchman from korean descent (adoptee)

    man, you have endurance. Incredible. I rarely see fit people in Ontario Healthy fit people are hard to find anymore here 🍁🍁 My coworkers who are 50-60 y.old all with some sort of issues, knee replacements, heap replacements, migraines, cancers, etc.
    Only a few active and strong are left and I see them in the gym. Finding someone who is adventures, who works on endurance, who is not sick or stress all the time is a challenge. Watching your videos is like looking into a sky with birds flying from a sinking submarine.

    I might be crazy, but I like the sound of 300m of climbing. there's something about a long category 1 or 2 climb that makes me want to climb it.

    I find it wild that you not only take up an entire lane going downhill but also go across the yellow centre line.... Seems unnecessary but I guess it's the luxury of such quiet roads

      Not sure what you find so surprising about this. Standard procedure for descending mountain roads whether or not there are cars.

    If you could add a bit more information about train time, tickets, bike fees, we would appreciate it. The same way as you spiced it with the Hotel information

      The train leaves from Yongsan Station in Seoul to Chuncheon. If you’re seriously thinking about taking this trip, I recommend you go in person to Yongsan station to buy your ticket. That’s what I did. It’s super confusing on their website. I think it was about 15000 won including the bike.

    What were these side dishes, which you refused at the woman's restaurant?

    • @JohnnyZeeLee

      It has a similar look and texture to spinach but it’s fermented

      It’s a running vest. It’s nothing special. Got it from Decathlon. I think it’s their house brand.

    Love your videos but please for the love of god take your helmet off at the table. Also just let her put the dishes on the table and leave it if don’t like. Impressive Korean speaking though 😮

    • @JohnnyZeeLee

      Haha sometimes I don’t take my helmet off because there’s no place to put it. I was insisting she not put down the side dishes because it would be a waste of food. Many restaurants in Korea don’t like serving solo diners because of this.
