    You're lucky to have completed this route before the earthquake. The road to Taroko has been damaged. Thank you for recording its beautiful scenery.

      Do you think the KOM challenge on October will push through? I was planning to join this year but then heard the news about the earthquake.

    I’ve ride this route once and it’s really incredible.
    Unfortunately, the route is destroyed by earthquake early this month.
    It’ll need a couple months for engineering team to fix it and I guess the road surface will not be as good as how it was for this year.
    So if you want to have an incredible climbing experience, start planning now for May to early October in 2025. The best seasons to do this!🎉

    Awesome effort…still to be checked off my bucket list! Here’s a rather pleasant idea: give Hawaii a go! You have Haleakala on Maui and Mauna Loa and Mauna Kea on the Big Island. All are 3,000m+ climbs!

    Welcome to Taiwan and glad you had a great ride.
    Pronunciations:
    Hualien = Hoo-ahh-lee-en
    Wuling = Woo-ling
    It’s always great to see those living outside Taiwan coming here to enjoy our amazing roads, scenery and hospitality. I feel fortunate to live in this amazing country each day - especially those where I’m on my bike climbing our many many epic climbs.

    The doritos are in competition with the haribos. Doritos didn't want to climb above 2500 m. But haribos make cyclists cooked at 3000m. And donuts flatten out in bags. Local pork cakes make sure to get the top of Wuling, don't they ?

    Happy for you ever been there when you still got the chance. It's now even impossible to get to the 7-11 where the big climb officially starts in your video. We don't know when this route and scenary can be recovered and open to the public again after the earthquake happened earlier this year. Landslides have destroyed big parts along the route all the way to wuling and killed some people, and I personally believe it may take at least several years from now to fix partial roads, trails, and so on.

      No doubt it will take time but have faith in our incredibly engineers and construction workers that the route will be open again in the not too distant future.
      I had the privilege to ride part of this route the week before the quake. I can’t wait to complete it in full once the road reopens.
      Thank you to the heroic construction workers and engineers who make Taiwan’s roads so awesome.
