Leaving Yilan
After a fabulous 3 months in Taiwan it was time to leave. With the Winter beginning we just needed to keep following the sun! ;-)

Helping with the TaiPingShan Biathlon
Alian had suggested that I enter this - I am so glad that I didn't. Just driving one of the support trucks up the mountain had me feeling totally exhausted.
We were talking a 24k cycle up 1500m of ascent followed by a 17k run - that is tough!
The day started out quite nice but rapidly deteriorated with a sharp drop in temperature and constant rain. Though I am sure for those competing this was actually a blessing as doing this in blazing sun and 30C is incomprehensible to me!
