Fulung is a small town with a train station but surprisingly saw many local tourists.The town was full of cyclists and trekkers who came for the mountain trails and cycling path around the beach. The lady boss of the hotel we stayed told us there is a shorter and bicycle friendtuly road to Yilan with a 2.5km of old train tunnel converted to bike lane called Caoling. We had our usual breakfast before we start, following the small road at the left turn from the train station,soon we saw the tunnel,it was really a joy to ride on till we reach the end of it and back to the coastal road to Dali,Daxi,Toucheng,Luodong on route 9.the scenery was not what we expected,and we did not have many stops like previous days,moreover the traffic is quite heavy much to our liking.Very uneventful day and took very few pictures. By 2.30pm, our meter shows 65 km,with the sky not looking good,we decided to wildcamp after climbing about 200m to a rest stop where an empty grass land just ideal for us to call it a day. The mosquitoes seems to like Tony's blood than mine.
