Well, I was riding around and getting my bearings on some new twisties I had found and on my way down the mountain I saw a strip of black going into the woods. Well, for the sake of my blog I decided to investigate and report my findings. The road is located right before Dunnae after passing HoengSeong. If you are on route 6 and find a road that has two lanes and is uphill and twisty, you'll see it to your left. These are the first decent set of twisties you'll run into on your way towards Dunnae. You'll come to a right-hander that has an extreme decreasing-radius and it'll be on your left (You'll know it when you see it). I'll be posting vids of the twisties on an upcoming entry, but the footage I took was unbelievably blurry so I'm going to try and reshoot it sometime this week.
I wasn't sure if it was a one way road or not, but there was random spots of sand and it's lucky I decided to proceed cautiously. It was an unbelievably sunny day and conditions couldn't have been better for riding. Towards the end of the road, I found a few farms and houses, but nothing special as a destination. The road isn't that great for wringing-out and balls to the wall riding as there are random piles of sand here and there, which I'm assuming were put there by farming machinery spillage.
Why have I decided to devote a post to this little road that leads to nowhere? Because if riding has taught me one thing it's that the destination is just an excuse. Although a sport bike isn't necessarily the best equipment to go "exploring", I didn't mind taking a little break and taking a stroll down this mysterious road.
My next posts will be about some of my favorite local and not-so-local twisties. Don't look at my blog for "fast-riding" because I'm not fast... yet, but there are some skills you just can't hone safely on the streets. I apologize for the shaky cam and my "point-and-shoot" style of riding, but I only ride as fast as I can see and slow moving trucks around blind corners are a killer for riders in Korea.
