Cycling to Saemangeum: A First (and Incomplete) Attempt

The day after our excursion to Saemangeum, I decided to trek out in that direction on my bicycle.  If I had left earlier (I left at maybe 2 p.m. or so) and if it hadn't been lethally cold out with face-numbing wind gusts, I very likely could have made it at least to the beginning of the seawall.  With the conditions as they were, though - and with my decision to make sure that I was back and not out in remote and freezing areas after the sun had disappeared - I only made it part of the way.  It was pretty far, actually, considering that I went by bicycle.  I can't wait until the weather warms up for real.  Once the strangling humidity of summer hits that seaspray on the seawall would really feel amazing.  And now that I know Gyeokpo is full of motels, a cycling trip across the whole wall isn't totally out of the question.
