I somehow kept missing chances to do the Muju Granfondo due to scheduling conflicts, but I finally got to participate this time.
Overall it was great—the supplies were well-provided, the road conditions were good, and the management was smooth,
but most of all, the support and encouragement from the organizers and staff members stationed throughout the route left a lasting impression.
At the supply stations, they genuinely took care of the riders, and it was really...
Especially, I can't forget that energy at supply station 3. ㅎㅎㅎ
Throughout the entire ride, I received encouragement from the staff members almost without exception, and I finished the Granfondo in 16th place.
Personally, my schedule this year has been so packed that I haven't had time to ride my bike, and I was feeling a bit down wondering "what's the point," so this Granfondo was incredibly joyful.
It seems like it will stay in my memory for life. ^^
