After stumbling upon the abandoned Paiwan village Vuri’ilj last week, I decided to look for another abandoned village to visit. My search led me to Kulalangau (sometimes written as Kulalangaw) in Chunri – 春日. It’s located very near BeiHuLuShan 北湖呂山. In fact, there are two alternate trail heads you...
Last year’s post about getting stuck in the mountains during a thunderstorm brought to mind the time I was stuck deep in the mountains on a riverbed while it was raining. I’d like to follow up with that story, which may have been even more dangerous.
After a failed attempt that resulted in me being violently pulled down by a snare, motorcycle on top of me for about 40 minutes, I felt it was time to head back to HuYaYuShan 戶亞宇山 for one more try. HuYaYuShan is located in Laiyi 來義 between and Neihe (佳興 & 內社)....
In July last year I randomly rode off into the mountains near Laiyi 來義 and happened upon an “altar of human skulls” as it’s known. Of all the days I could have ridden up there, this may have been the best. It was a clear and beautiful summer day...
Have you ever decided to do something and thought “Yeah, it should be ok.” And at some point while doing it you realize you made a bad decision? Well, today was that day… I had put new valves in my motorcycle and really wanted to go the mountains to...
I finally got around to buying new valves for my front suspension, Racetech FMGV 2001 Gold Valves. Before they arrived I scoured the Internet for any helpful info on their installation. There’s plenty out there but I didn’t find any one post that specifically showed all of the steps...
I went out riding last Wednesday. I’ve been wanting to do a bike ride/hike to a peak for some time now. I saw the JiuBaoShan 久保山 peak near where I was riding and figured what the heck. From my map it didn’t look to bad. Boy was I wrong....
Ever since I installed the 331 big bore I felt it didn’t crank over quite as well as with the stock bore. But all in all the battery was fine, and I didn’t want to replace it. I figured when the battery died I would find something with more...
Ride Start: 22.562303, 120.662724 Date: Many times during the dry months (Winter) Ride Info This is one of my favorite riverbeds to ride. There’s always a trail to follow and plenty of markers (stacked rocks or spray paint) to guide your way. There are several sections where...
I’ve been wanting to strengthen my subframe for a while now after seeing pictures of a few cracked subframes on kawasakiforums. I tend to load up the rear and bounce the hell out of it. A weak spot has been reported in the tube just past the coolant overflow...
