Pack up the road bike and fly to the northernmost border of the country for a surprise-filled and challenging two-person cycling trip on Matsu's Nangan Island! This journey is not only a pseudo-international island-hopping getaway but also the maiden voyage of my wife's road bike. The 4K lens captures Nangan's vast blue sea views, the Min-Dong settlements nestled between mountains and the sea, and the ubiquitous military battlefield scenery. However, Matsu's infamous brutal steep slopes immediately gave the novice the most shocking baptism. The two of us alternated between laughter and breakdowns along the way. Caught between beautiful scenery and steep climbs, can this maiden voyage successfully overcome Nangan's continuous long and steep slopes?
