Cycling Bits - Matthew's 1st - Ride!
We went out for a spin, about 1km. Not much of a training spin, but great fun for Matthew whose now 14 months old. Weather looks good again today, after rains all over South Korea (including Jeju Island). Speaking of the island, off there next week for the first holiday in 22 months!!! Last vacation like occured on Jeju Island in 2007. We won't smolder like Lava Rock (Hallabong Man!) since we planned this trip for Spring weather. Jeju Island, Korea experiences the hottest (smoking hot, melting weather) seasonal weather in July/August. Cycling updates: off to Chunju, Chuncheonbukdo to ride around a large lake this weekend with Murray (South Africa). June 6th is the Sokcho Beach Apocalypse Beach Party [update], I suppose the beach will be filled with tents, teachers, hippies with bongos, djembes, congas and I'll be there on my bike, riding from Gangneung North/South for the 120Km ride too!!! ^^.

About the Korean-World Author
Brian has completed his second mountain bike journey, MongoliaX expedition - Crossing Mongolia 2012, an unsupported mountain bike MTB expedition across 2500km of Outer Mongolia from Ulanbaatar to Altai Taven-Bogd National Park bordering China, Russia and Mongolia.
In 2013, as a sequel to a trilogy of cycle tours, Brian enjoyed a more leisure bicycle tour onboard his Koga-Miyata World Traveller seeing the northern tier of the United States and western Canada covering 3400 kilometers / 2000 miles in 30 days. This North American cycle tour was called Totherocktour. Enjoying the adventure of bicycle travel and every great conversation started while traveling on the road - has refueled his inspirations to cycle around the Earth. In 2013, while he cycled solo from the Great Lake State of Michigan, United States to Banff National Park in the Canadian Rocky Mountains. He weaved through local communities and reconnected with friends, family and community after spending almost a decade in Asia.
Brian is now supporting several non-profit foundations through expeditions: IDEAS Foundation of Canada IDEAS is the acronym for Intestinal Disease Education and Awareness Society which supports the IBD community, those suffering from IBD-inflammatory bowel disease, also known as Crohn's and Ulcerative Colitis.
